Did Friday's Gold Price Action Signal a Stock Market Top? / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2012

By: Chris_Vermeulen

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis Article“You can’t feel the heat until you hold your hand over the flame.

You have to cross the line just to remember where it lays.” ~ Rise Against. “Satellite” Lyrics ~

Stock Market Investors Dangerous Times Ahead, Will Impact Gold / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2012

By: Toby_Connor

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleFriday's big rally on the better than expected employment report has now generated the kind of euphoria that often creates intermediate degree tops. This coming week will be the 18th week of the current intermediate cycle. As you can see in the chart below the intermediate cycle runs on average 18-25 weeks from trough to trough.

Are US Treasury Bond Markets a Sell? / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2012

By: WavePatternTraders

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleImpressive gains on stocks, it seems nothing can derail this trend atm.

Finally however we meet some awaited targets, although I will be the 1st to admit I am really pushing the boat here and allowing for the bears to come up with some magic before I potentially revert and relinquish and ideas of seeing a reversal.

Sometimes you got to know when to fold, we are at that point where if the bears don't come up with something, then the likely hood is that the markets are in something special and a test of the Oct 2007 highs are most probable.

Is the U.S. 'Decoupling' From the European Debt Crisis? / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2012

By: Clif_Droke

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleSelling pressure earlier in the week gave way to strong demand for equities as concerns over the European debt crisis have been moved to the backburner. Investors have instead been focusing on the improved U.S. economic and employment picture.

In an article by Reuters reporter Edward Krudy earlier this week there was a significant quote worth mentioning. The quote is from Ryan Larson, head of equity trading at RBC Global Asset Management. Larson said, "The U.S. appears to be slowly, slowly in the early stages of a decoupling from the euro zone."

Essential Investor Preparations for The Big Crisis / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2012

By: DeepCaster_LLC

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe U.S. economic and systemic-solvency crises of the last five years continue to deteriorate.  Yet they remain just the precursors to the coming Great Collapse: a hyperinflationary great depression.  The unfolding circumstance will encompass a complete loss in the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar; a collapse in the normal stream of U.S. commercial and economic activity; a collapse in the U.S. financial system, as we know it; and a likely realignment of the U.S. political environment.  Outside timing on the hyperinflation remains 2014, but events of the last year have accelerated the movement towards this ultimate dollar catastrophe.  Following Mr. Bernanke’s extraordinary efforts to debase the U.S. currency in late-2010, the dollar had lost its traditional safe-haven status by early-2011.  Whatever global confidence had remained behind the U.S dollar was lost in July and August.  That was in response to the lack of political will—shown by those who control the White House and Congress—to address the long-range insolvency of the U.S. government, and as a result of the later credit-rating downgrade to U.S. Treasury debt.

International Business - Davos Style / Politics / Financial Markets 2012

By: BATR

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe first lesson of international business is that the monopolies that drive the commercial trading system only hold loyalty to the god of capital. Making money means retaining a profit on trading transactions of business companies. The notion of MAKING MONEY means something very different to the financial empires that speculate on currencies, commodities, bonds and equities. When the two worlds come together to celebrate the common interest of their pirate culture, the Davos port of call, is a necessary winter holiday.

Gold, Euro Rebound Off Lows / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2012

By: Mike_Paulenoff

Today's weakness in the Euro/USD (so far) has held important support in the 1.3080/50 area, which represents a former 6-week upside breakout plateau.

As long as EUR/USD respects the integrity of the support zone, the recovery rally off of 1.2620 (Jan 15) will remain intact.

Financial Markets Jan 2012 Moves Against Popular Expectations / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2012

By: Capital3X

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleSet against the backdrop of an entire continent breaking up and the gloom of a world wide recession, the financial markets continue to surprise. When my 70 year old uncle who has never traded the financial markets, tell me that the world is going to fall apart cause of the debt on European countries, we know bears dont have a chance in the near future.

What started as a feeble move in 1st week of January has now whip lashed into powerful uptrend on the risk assets with an extraordinary event about to appear on the S&P 500. The 50 DMA is all set to cross the 200 DMA. It has happened more than 12 times since 1990. This is one measure which never lies.

Gold, Stocks and the Dollar, Arguing with the Market / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2012

By: Toby_Connor

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleI figured out early in my career that arguing with the market more often than not ends up costing one money. If you are one of those people who are unable to change your mind, this business will almost certainly chew you up and spit you out. Never has that been more true than today.

Folks, we are in the middle of an ongoing currency war. That is creating investing conditions unlike anything most of us have ever seen before. There's a reason why very few money managers have been able to make any profits over the last year and most of them have lost money. That reason is an ever-changing investing environment.

Financial Markets 2012, When Leverage Fails / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2012

By: Ty_Andros

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe saga continues as we head into 2012. That saga is the demise of Ponzi finance and an ASSET-backed economic model in the developed world. We do not know whether the currency and financial system extinction event will occur this year or ten years from now. The questions we hope to answer in this 2012 economic analysis regard only the unfolding of short to intermediate-term ups and downs in economies, financial systems and societies. We will be covering different sectors of the 2012 economy (stocks, bonds, precious metals, commodities, real estate, etc.) over the next several editions of TedBits; this is part one -- a global-macro Austrian overview, the BIG PICTURE so to speak.

Stocks Thump Yields as Economic Growth Looks On / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2012

By: Ashraf_Laidi

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleIt is not a new development for US GDP growth to be largely driven by a build- up inventories (+1.9% contribution is highest since Q1 2010) in contrast to weak contribution from real final sales (+0.80% is lowest since Q1 2011). If this is a signal to future growth prospects, then how will the ultra low yields-driven stock go on?

Stock Market Topping Out or Just Pinning the Fed? / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2012

By: PhilStockWorld

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe Dollar bounced off 79.75 this morning, nothing to crow about for Dollar bulls as the Euro remains just over the critical $1.30 mark and the Pound is solidly over $1.55 for the moment.

You could say it's a bearish sign that the Dow and the NYSE stopped dead at our breakout levels but that's to be expected on a first attempt at breaking out – even if they have already attempted the same move back in late October, when the Dow was 5% lower in it's test and the NYSE was testing the same line (7,866).
