Stock Market Rally Getting Ridiculous, Gold Potential Double Top / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
Elevated unemployment is here to stay. - (Bloomberg) The U.S. economy will slow more than previously estimated through next year as elevated unemployment tempers consumer spending and companies trim investment plans, economists surveyed by Bloomberg News said.
Economists’ dimmer outlook is at odds with that of Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke, who said conditions are in place for a pickup in growth next year. Survey participants also pushed back the timing of the Fed’s first rate increase to the fourth quarter of 2011 from the prior three months.

Surmounting the Gold Confiscation or Financial Collapse Scenario / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: DeepCaster_LLC
“It is absurd that the United States has a central bank that is more accountable to the financial industry than it is to the public.”“The Rally against Obamacare for the Banks” Dean Baker, The Guardian, 9/23/09Read full article... Read full article...
“…Only liquidation of the biggest banks can enable a recovery, period!! Of course, the process is complicated, especially politically. Actually, it is more than political, since the big banks control the USGovt. The response reaction from gold & silver will give loud messages to systemic failure, as money is wasted, invested in failure, and directed to the elite troughs…

By: Chris_Vermeulen
I am going to step out on a limb in this report and cover what I think to be an intermediate top in the precious metals sector. Everyone I speak with and from the hundreds of emails I get I would say the vast majority are bullish on gold and silver. That being said, I feel we are 3-8 days away from a pop and drop in the price of gold.

Uncle Rupert Throws A Tantrum on Stock Market Tuesday / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: PhilStockWorld
Happy Tuesday to you!
Nice market take-down by the Journal this morning, who led off with an article questioning the EU stress tests saying: "From this point of view, it is not surprising that the doubts raised about the validity of the stress tests are weighing on the Euro and also on other risk-correlated currencies." Then, to make sure no one misses the article, they run another headline for the US markets that says "Concerns Over EU Banks Hit Euro" in which they quote themselves:

Inflation, Deflation, a Quantum Physics Enigma / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Captain_Hook
The title a quantum physics enigma likely best captures (as opposed to ‘ A Parallel Universe, etc.’) the essence of describing two things occupying the same space at the same time, as is the case with both inflation and deflation within the matrix of our sordid economies. Because this topic is of growing interest at present with deflation spreading into increasing sectors, it does in fact appear timely to take a good look at the condition our condition is in, where parallels in central bank policy compared to the 30’s can be made in the sense it might be a ‘Fed mistake’ (lack of inflation) that sparks the next Great Depression.

By: Nadeem_Walayat
The stock market closed up 298 points on the week at 10,448 (10,150). The bears that predominantly follow a non existant deflationary scenario, consistently and persistently fail to comprehend what drives the worlds economies and stock markets which is the inflation mega-trend. Governments and their respective central banks are engaged in a perpetual cycle of inflationary money printing policies with the sole aim of concentrating power and wealth into their own hands by stealing the wealth of savers and purchasing power of workers.

War is Over Wednesday, Stocks Bottom Fishing / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: PhilStockWorld
President Obama formally declared an end to the 7-year Iraq war last night.
This came as quite a surprise to the 50,000 soldiers who are still there but, so far, it sure beats the end of the Vietnam war where we had to get the hell out of Saigon as the city fell beneath us. To be fair, the Vietnam War had been going on for 116 years (the French began an unwelcome occupation in the 1800s) - we just came in for the last quarter…

By: Nadeem_Walayat
Did the stock market crash Monday ? Nope, Tuesday ? Nope. How about Wednesday, Thursday or Friday ? The Dow closed down 63 points on the week at 10,150 (10,213) which given the much publicised Hindenburg Crash Omen, is not exactly following the script though off course the Hindenburg Omen has plenty of get out of jail cards in the small print which ensures that all eventualities are covered ( The Hindenburg Stock Market Omen Doomed to Crash and Burn? ).

Investors Don’t Get Trapped by Market Micro-Bubbles, the Silent Wealth Killers / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Jared_Levy
Today's article is about market bubbles. Right now, you're probably wondering why I am talking about market bubbles when the S&P 500 is trading down 6.5% since the first trading day of January this year, and down 33% from the 2007 highs. On top of that, home prices have fallen 30% (on average) to 2002-2003 levels, and unemployment is nearly 10%. Frankly, most of the globe is struggling to pay its bills. So doesn't all of this mean any kind of market bubble has burst? Well, the answer is, not all of them.
