By: DeepCaster_LLC
“U.S. Federal Budget Deficit Reality. On November 23rd… the Congressional Super Committee is due to announce a mandatory plan for cutting the federal budget deficit. Ostensibly, the package to be produced will provide at least a 1.2-trillion dollar deficit reduction over ten years. Even if the Committee can reach an agreement… the deal will not be meaningful… consider the following:

Why Warren Buffett Is Buying Stocks And You Should Be Too / Stock-Markets / Investing 2011
By: Money_Morning
Keith Fitz-Gerald writes:
Legendary investor Warren Buffett recently made news with his purchase of International Business Machines Corp. (NYSE: IBM), though I can't say I'm surprised.
Despite criticism that he's buying into a top-heavy market, that IBM is at a premium, and that he's losing his touch, chances are Buffett knows exactly what he's doing.

Stock and Commodity Markets Make Or Break / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2011
By: Puru_Saxena
BIG PICTURE – The global economy is slowing down, most of Europe is in recession and the US is also on the verge of a contraction. Nonetheless, the ‘risk on’ trade has raged over the past month and somehow, the market seems to be oblivious to the real economy. Read full article... Read full article...

Things Getting Ugly for Stock Market Bulls / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
SPX has clearly emerged out of its Diamond pattern formation and, technically speaking, has nothing but air to the bottom of the charts. This is a perfect crash set up. Since the SPX reentered its original Broadening Wedge formation, it may still be under the influence of that Broadening Wedge, which has a target below 1000. In fact, there is some argument that we are now entering the crash phase of the initial Broadening Wedge.

A Stock Market Trifecta of Sell Signals / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
The NDX has now crossed and back-tested the lower trendline of its Broadening Top at 2312.00 and the intermediated-term trend support at 2306.00. This gives the NDX a confirmed sell signal. The next probable support is the neckline at 2292.00, which happens to correspond with hourly cycle bottom support. Once these are all crossed, we will have a trifecta (or possibly a “fourfecta”) of sell signals. This would put the Head & Shoulders target in play.

Stock Market Next Leg Down / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Donald_W_Dony
Global markets appear to have completed their consolidation and now appear set for the next leg down.
After several weeks of stalling, today's movement on the broad-based NYSE Composite suggests that the index is expected to decline (Chart 1) over the next few days. Price support has been at 7350-7400. That level should be broken by early next week.

Stock Market Poor Action....Still In The Range..... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Jack_Steiman
Today spoke volumes about the type of market we're in right now. It's a market that can't break out, seems to be clear to all of us now. A market that has been moving laterally is more of what we're seeing, but with today's action, we may be ready for some much deeper downside action. Let me explain.

Stocks Severe Bear Market Forecast 2012? / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: EWI
The stock market's 17-month drop into March 2009 erased all the gains in the Dow Jones Industrial Average since the late 1990s. That's a full decade's worth of gains.
And the two-week drop that ended August 9 basically wiped out all the gains from 2010 - 2011.

Stocks and Dollar Breakouts, Breakdowns & Supports / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2011
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
Yesterday I reported the breakdown of the Euro. This morning, the US Dollar is staging a breakout, having reached an overnight high of 78.60 in the futures. It appears to be finding support at or above its cycle top support/resistance at 78.30, which is a sign of strength. This is typical of an Elliott third wave, which appears to be beginning.

Are You Prepared For What’s Coming? / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2011
By: Submissions
Michael A Burnham writes: The US$ is the world reserve currency and a huge amount of it is used in international commerce and held in foreign banks. What is the real value of the US$ or any currency for that matter? Money is no longer backed by gold or anything other than “good faith”, thus coined “fiat currency". Whenever the US Treasury runs short of money, it auctions Treasury notes…IOUs. But since there are fewer interested buyers in the world today, it then borrows dollars, printed out of thin air, from the Federal Reserve, a privately owned banking consortium, in exchange for Treasury notes. Every dollar issued represents an instrument of debt. In your wallet, you will find a Federal Reserve Note and its value is quantified by what it can buy.Read full article... Read full article...

Stock Market, The Collapse of Wall Cycle #6 / Stock-Markets / Cycles Analysis
By: David_Knox_Barker
The late market analyst PQ Wall put forward a rather bold proposal concerning the regular business cycle, which is also known as the Kitchin cycle. Wall concluded that every business cycle subdivides into three sets of three smaller cycles, for nine total cycles. Based on PQ's contribution to market cycle research, this cycle is known as the Wall cycle. The Wall cycle ideally runs about 142 days in length, just over 20-weeks, but they often run shorter and longer than this ideal length in Fibonacci ratios of their ideal length.

China Still Key for Investors Despite Slumping Stock Markets / Stock-Markets / Chinese Stock Market
By: Money_Morning
David Zeiler writes:
Despite the recent downturn in China's stock market, investors need to remain focused on the profit-generating long-term growth potential of the Asian powerhouse.
The Shanghai Composite Index is down about 10% on the year, compared to a drop of less than 1% year-to-date for the Standard & Poor's 500 Index.

Stock Market Boredom.....Going Nowhere..... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Jack_Steiman
It's painful mentally. We don't go anywhere. So many head fakes. There are many days, such as last Friday, that get you to thinking the breakout is upon us. There have been many days where you'd bet the house the bears are about to take over. Just think back to last Wednesday. No follow-through from either side of the coin. Both make headway, but neither can get the job done, and therefore, we continue to trade in a range with whipsaw the only word that really works to explain the markets action over the short- to medium-term.

Markets Taking Cue from the Euro / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2011
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Ok then... after both houses of the Italian Government ratified the proposed austerity measures over the weekend, and Prime Minister Berlusconi resigned and Mario Monti was appointed as the Prime Minister-designate (ahead of forthcoming elections), let's notice that the Euro has taken a nosedive from Sunday evening's (euphoric?) high at 1.3815 (off of last Thursday's breakdown low at 1.3480).
