Gold, Stocks and Bonds Financial Respite / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: David_Petch
When volatility spikes the economy in certain ways, it can cause some leveraged positions to implode which can, through paper markets collapse the price of a given commodity etc. Some event is looming that will serve as a trigger for the next down leg in the broad stock market indices...the rising US Dollar Index is serving that at present and as mentioned earlier this week, there are thousands of potential dominoes out there waiting to be knocked over to start the cascade...just which one and when this occurs is an unknown. And with volatility comes government to try and maintain stability through financial respite. There are many definitions of respite in the dictionary, but the short and sweet version is “To delay the carrying out of (punishment)...or to relieve temporarily, especially of anything distressing or trying”.

Investor Mega Trend Nuggets / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: DeepCaster_LLC
“More than three quarters of Americans say they are living paycheck to paycheck, with barely enough to scrape by in an emergency. In a survey of 1,000 adults, fewer than one in four said they had enough money to cover expenses for six months. Half said they had less than a three month cushion, while a quarter said they had no savings at all.” CNN.com, 7/2/2013
Successful Investors are typically those who keep in mind the Great Trends And Fundamental Realities when making their decisions. And these Trends are not usually those on which the MainStream Media, with its addiction to “reporting” Politically Correct GroupThink, focuses.

The Greatest Threat to the U.S. Economy and An Easy Way to Protect Yourself / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: The_Gold_Report
America is staring down a fiscal catastrophe, says Porter Stansberry, the outspoken investment analyst who has coined the phrase "the end of America." Americans are living beyond their means, he says, and the global economy is tired of holding our debt. Nothing short of economic disaster will befall us. But amid such grim predictions, in this interview with The Gold Report, Stansberry takes a moment to praise the enduring value of timeless investments, such as farmland and. . .Krispy Kreme. Stansberry shares his thoughts on everything from the Federal Reserve to Hong Kong.

Brady Bonds Euro-zone Solutions, Rising Interest Rates Impact on Gold and Silver / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: Christopher_Quigley
Brady Bonds For the Eurozone Are the Only Long Term Solution:
Ireland’s presidency of the European Union ended last Friday. One of its last acts was to finalize the banking policy whereby future troubled Euro banks will be restructured using the Cypriot “bail-in” model. Ostensibly it would appear that the banking crisis is now behind us and the path is clear on how to move forward and achieve banking stability and re-capitalization.

Developing Deflationary Major Forex, Precious Metals and Commodity Market Tops / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: Rambus_Chartology
In this report I would like to show you some different currencies that are completing major reversal patterns that should be positive for the US dollar. By the looks of some of the base metals miners BHP, RIO and FCX they seem to be saying that deflation is on the horizon. These big miners look like the HUI before it broke down from its major H&S top pattern.
Lets start with the US dollar that has been rallying back after hitting its long term resistance rail last month in a sharp sell off. I think that was the shake out before the breakout. This first chart of the US dollar shows a nice H&S consolidation that is getting close to breaking the neckline to the upside. A break above the neckline will put the US dollar at a 3 year or so high.

Stock Market SPX Kiss of Death / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
SPX made an irregular Wave [b] below support this morning with a retest of support-turned-resistance. A turn-down here is literally the “kiss of death” for the rally. In this case, we would not want to see SPX retesting the 50-day moving average, since it is still rising. However, the Short-term resistance and Lip of the Cup with Handle formation serve as a proxy.

SPX Turns Whilst Gold GLD ETF Burns the Buy-the-Dippers / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
SPX had the pop-n-drop, as suggested. It stopped at the final double resistance area as well. Something needs to jolt investors out of their reverie, since the outlook is overwhelmingly bullish. I don’t expect equities to linger at their highs.

How to Profit From the Fed-Induced Stocks and Bonds Sell-off / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: Investment_U
Alexander Green writes: The markets have reeled in reaction to news that the Federal Reserve intends to end its $85 billion-a-month bond-buying program by the middle of next year.
Let’s take a look at why this is happening and how you should play it now.
For the past several years, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke has helped goose the economy (and stock and bond markets) by keeping short-term rates near zero and – through the Fed’s bond-buying program – long-term rates artificially low.

Fed Crashes Financial Markets to Defend Against U.S. Dollar Collapse / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: Joseph_Russo
Let’s face the music people.
In a corrupt system, which imposes by force, unjust and unconstitutional laws, where a digital account entry creates monopoly-imposed legal tender out of thin air, it’s clear why global markets turn to the US dollar for safety.
Anyone with half a brain realizes the enormity of such insanity, but such is the corrupt reality imposed by our treasonous elite slave owners.

Marc Faber on Bernanke QE Tapering, Stocks, Gold and Interest Rates / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: Bloomberg
Marc Faber, publisher of the Gloom, Boom and Doom Report, told Bloomberg Television's Trish Regan and Tom Keene on "Street Smart" today that believing in Ben Bernanke is like believing in Father Christmas. He said, "If you say that if he means what he says, then you believe in Father Christmas... As I said already three years ago, we are going to go with the Fed to QE99."
Faber said, "I think the market is on the high side, corporate profits are inflated and we could easily, from the recent high, May 22 at 1687 on the S&P, drop by 20% to 30%, easily."

Key Tips for Surmounting Rigged Financial and Commodity Markets / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: DeepCaster_LLC
“We no longer have a free market. The world's financial asset prices have become a plaything of central banks and the sovereign wealth funds of a few emerging powers.
“Julian Callow from Barclays says they are buying $1.8 trillion worth of AAA or safe-haven bonds each year from an available pool of $2 trillion. Nothing like this has been seen before in modern times, if ever.
“The Fed, the ECB, the Bank of England, the Bank of Japan, et al., own $10 trillion in bonds. China, the petro-powers, et al., own another $10 trillion. Between them they have locked up $20 trillion, equal to roughly 25 percent of global GDP. They are the market. That is why Fed taper talk has become so neuralgic and why we all watch Chinese regulators for every clue on policy….

Market Calls Fed’s Bluff / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: Michael_Pento
The Fed has recently expressed a desire to begin winding down its Quantitative Easing program in the next few months. This would be the first step towards the eventual raising of interest rates. Mr. Bernanke and the other members of our central bank believe the normalization of interest rates would occur within the context of robust markets and rising GDP growth.

Global Recession Forecast - Is PIMCO's Bill Gross Wrong Again? / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: Money_Morning
Keith Fitz-Gerald writes: Stuart Varney put the question directly to me last week during his Fox Business show:
What do I make of comments from PIMCO's Bill Gross...that he's projecting a 60% chance of a global recession in the next three to five years?
Now, Bill Gross is obviously one of the most powerful men in the world. PIMCO, the firm he founded, is the world's biggest bond manager. He has assets under management of more than $2 trillion (that's right, with a "t").

Media, Economy and Markets Behind The looking Glass! / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: Robert_M_Williams
The most important service rendered by the press and the magazines is that of educating people to approach printed matter with distrust! - Samuel Butler (1612 – 1680)
I have been of the opinion for a number of years that what we see in the media is exactly what “they” want us to see, no more and no less. With very few exceptions, if we see it on TV it’s because they want us to see it and it is meaningless. If by chance you do see something bad on TV it’s because it isn’t what it appears, or the censors slipped up. Most of what appears to be bad is simple misdirection intended to distract your attention away from what really matters. This week was no exception as we are subjected to the monotonous drone of employment numbers, earnings reports and whether or not the market has topped. None of that matters, at least not in the way it is being presented to us.

Bail-Ins, Bonds Bursting and Hyperinflation… Three MEGAS / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: DeepCaster_LLC
“The implicit assumption behind that siren call must be that the inflation rate can be manipulated to reach economic objectives. Up today, maybe a little more tomorrow and then pulled back on command. Good luck with that. All experience demonstrates that inflation, when fairly and deliberately started, is hard to control and reverse.”
Paul Volcker, Former Fed Chairman, June, 2013
Indeed! The St. Louis Fed’s adjusted Monetary base shot up from $800 Billion in 2009 to $3.2 Trillion in June 2013.

Stocks, Gold and Crude Oil Markets Analysis and Trends Forecasts / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2013
By: Chris_Vermeulen
The two most popular investments a few years ago have been dormant and out of the spot light. But from looking at the price of both gold and oil charts their time to shine may be closer than one may thing.
Seasonal charts allow us to look at what the average price for an investment does during a specific time of the year. The gold and oil seasonal charts below clearly show that we are entering a time which price tends to drift higher.
While these chart help with the overall bias of the market keep in mind they are not great at timing moves and should always be coupled with the daily and weekly underlying commodity charts.
