Most Popular Financial Markets Analysis of 2014 - Stocks Bull Market Raged On! / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: Nadeem_Walayat

The stocks bull market raged on for another year to close at Dow 17,823 near the markets all time high set just a few days earlier at 18,103, this despite widespread calls of bear markets and even crashes that coalesced around a series of bad news events such as surrounding the US debt ceiling triggering a government shutdown and not forgetting Octobers end of QE apocalypse, with such doom calls always reaching their most vocal just at the end of every correction.

U.S. Economy is in a Sweet Spot! / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: Puru_Saxena

BIG PICTURE - The world's prominent central banks are pursuing an accommodative monetary policy and this bodes well for the stock market. Remember, when it comes to investing, monetary policy trumps everything else and the risk free rate of return determines the value of every asset. When interest rates are low and credit is cheap and plentiful, asset prices tend to inflate. Conversely, when interest rates are high and credit is tight, asset prices tend to deflate.

Wall Street’s Big Boys Bulldoze Through the Spending Bill They Want / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

Shah Gilani writes: We’ve got a spending bill, folks!

The government of the United States will remain open for business thanks to the usual suspects in Congress being open to being bought.

Sometimes it only takes a few phone calls from a deep-pocketed giant bank CEO to remind legislators who butters their bread.

Money Managers - If They Only Knew How Little You Know / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: John_Rubino

Pretend, for a minute, that you’re a money manager in today’s manipulated world. You understand that most of what’s happening is the result of governments and central banks forcing down interest rates and pumping up asset prices. You don’t trust this process but since “the markets are recovering” you’ve felt compelled to play along, putting your clients into a standard mix of stocks, bonds and cash.

When the Market Moves Fast, Stuff Blows Up / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: John_Mauldin

One of my old rules of trading is that whenever a major asset class, index, or other benchmark has a sudden, rapid move in price, something blows up. Sky high.

That’s because people get used to regimes. They get used to a certain state of affairs with a lack of volatility. They become complacent. Maybe they stop hedging. Maybe they allow themselves to have unbounded downside risk. Maybe they start gambling.

US Dollar and SP 500 Rally Fizzling Out? Gold Breaks Five Month Downtrend / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

Financial World - The Most Elementary Question Must Not Be Asked / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: Raul_I_Meijer

We’re in dire need of fresh blood and smart new ideas to clean up the mess the present ideologies and their puppets and puppetmasters have created. The present crew has made a neverending series of ‘mistakes’, intentional or not, and they are dead set on making more, if only because they refuse to change the tack that led to all these ‘mistakes’.

I say mistakes because that’s what they are from the point of view of all those who live in the real economy, not because I think the puppetmasters are mistaken from their own point of view. After all, all they do, literally all they do, is take care of their own interests. Where they will find themselves mistaken is down the line, when there is no longer a functioning real economy, and they will of necessity end up going down with it.

Reversal in TNX as USD Breaks Out / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: Anthony_Cherniawski

Good Morning!

TNX is racing to challenge Short-term resistance at 22.83 this morning. I had not reported on TNX yesterday, since it had only made three waves from its low and closed at hourly Cycle Bottom resistance at 22.15. This morning the reversal is clear and the Cycles Model verifies it. It also suggests that the rally may continue through mid-December, once a pullback to the Cycle Bottom is made. Those who are long treasuries may find a more comfortable exit there, while those wishing to short treasuries may find a better entry point at the Cycle Bottom.

US Dollar Goes Parabolic Vs. Russian Ruble and Japanese Yen / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: Jeb_Handwerger

Despite the junior resource sector being near a major bottom and going through a bear market of epic proportions, I still believe that this may be one of the best times to add to quality positions. Nothing perfects one's craft in the financial markets like a bear market. In a bear market one has to refine their skills in stock picking. The emergence of a new bull market is usually the most propitious time for outsized gains.

As indicated on Friday, the SPX Premarket has declined beneath both the lower trendline of its Ending Diagonal formation and the upper trendline of the Orthodox Broadening Top. It appears to have bounced off Short-term support at 2052.12 and remains between its new support and resistance lines.

The World Has Become Obdurate, Central Bankers Hell Bent on Creating Inflation / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: Michael_Pento

There is a perfect word that describes the current condition of governments and consumers around the world today. The word is obdurate, and it means to be stubbornly persistent in wrongdoing.

The word comes to mind when witnessing the renewed enthusiasm of central banks to re-inflate old asset bubbles and to endlessly debase their currencies with the misguided belief that inflation will engender sustainable economic growth. In the case of the Fed, it has so far to date made at least three QE efforts and six years of ZIRP to achieve this goal. But what it has actually achieved is to create asset bubbles and render the nation insolvent. Governments have failed to grow economies in any viable manner. But today's central bankers have become the very embodiment of the word obdurate, as they stubbornly persist in the effort to pursue inflation as a panacea, despite all available evidence that it will fail to achieve their desired results.

Harry Dent's Simple Strategy for Surviving Withdrawals from Markets on Crack / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: The_Gold_Report

An aging world is a deflationary one, according to "The Demographic Cliff" author Harry Dent. In this interview with The Gold Report, he predicts a major, painful crash in the next two years based on population statistics and historic patterns. He has some positive short-term predictions for gold, and investment suggestions for how to be one of the ones still standing after the dust settles.

The Gold Report: Your book, "The Demographic Cliff: How to Survive and Prosper During the Great Deflation of 2014–2019," predicted a great deflation based on demographic trends. Were you surprised by the strong stock market over the last year?

An Epiphany From Hell - Buy Gold and Silver / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: Richard_Daughty

Proving that I never have an original thought, I recently received an epiphany from Alan Greenspan, evil erstwhile chairman of the Federal Reserve who is directly responsible for the fatal mess we are in. He was recently casually “explaining” how it was absolutely necessary for him to destroy the United States by creating so much excess cash and credit that it created horrendously huge bubbles in stocks, bubbles in bonds, bubbles in business and personal debt, bubbles in size of governments and their growing legions of dependents, and an expensive housing/real estate market, all adding up to an incomprehensibly gigantic Huge Freaking Boatload (HFB) of debt, all made possible by the evil Federal Reserve, and all priced to yield at negative real (inflation-adjusted) rates!

US Dollar mid-term top makes Precious Metal and Energy Stocks a Buy / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: David_Petch

I decided to do an important update of the US Dollar Index, because Friday’s rise in Gold and gold stocks alongside oil indicated a likely top. I have been extremely bearish on energy and precious metal stocks the past few months because of the upside strength potential in the US Dollar. I still am bullish on the US Dollar, but as this analysis will indicate, a top has been put in place that should see a correction minimally last until early to mid-March 2015.
