Financial Markets and the Descending Triangle of Doom / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2011

By: Barry_M_Ferguson

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe Dow has been trending lower since July 22, 2011. Other than a fabulous 600-point rally from 3PM to 4PM following the Fed meeting of August 9, 2011, the trend downward has been brutal and abrupt. There was also a 400-point rally two days later that was followed with two more rally days on falling volume. That may have been a warning sign. The Dow then turned lower oddly enough at just about the 38% Fibonacci retracement line of the descent. The Dow now sits at 10817. What will happen when the markets open on Monday?

High Frequency Trading are destabilis​ing Global Financial Markets / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011

By: Sam_Chee_Kong

Best Financial Markets Analysis Article“ Markets are purely about Speculations. There is no more such thing as INVESTING  in the markets. It is just Speculation on different timeframes “

Traditionally we have the market that is made up of retail and institutional investors together with the market makers that facilitates these investors. In the last couple of years,  there have been much changes in the investment landscape and that is High Frequency Trading or HFT for short. HFT accounted for about 70% of daily trading volume in NYSE, 60% in Europe and 50% in Asia. In other words there is a paradigm shift in the traditional Investors Buy and Hold market to a Trader’s market.

Financial Meltdown: The Case Against the Ratings Agencies / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2011

By: Michael_Hudson

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleIn today’s looming confrontation the ratings agencies are playing the political role of “enforcer” as the gatekeepers to credit, to put pressure on Iceland, Greece and even the United States to pursue creditor-oriented policies that lead inevitably to financial crises. These crises in turn force debtor governments to sell off their assets under distress conditions. In pursuing this guard-dog service to the world’s bankers, the ratings agencies are escalating a political strategy they have long been refined over a generation in the corrupt arena of local U.S. politics.

Investors Profitably Surmounting Plutocratic Perfidy / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2011

By: DeepCaster_LLC

Best Financial Markets Analysis Article“Tuesday’s Fed meeting was sad. They failed to do what wise men urged, ie, cut the fat rate Fed pays banks that put reserves with Fed to zero. That would have caused banks to remove reserves & free them up for lending. Not doing this reveals banks control Fed & Fed is a banks cartel. That’s why Thomas Jefferson said he feared banks more than standing armies.”

Investment Impact of Primary Stocks Bear Market Trend Since 2000 / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011

By: Brian_Bloom

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleIf you happen to be a retiree, you will understand this is your gut: The Primary Trend of the US equity market has been “down” since 2000.  As is clearly visible from the 80 year chart below (courtesy Decisonpoint.com) the market peaked in 2000 – that’s 11 years ago. Any arguments about a pending bull market are just noise. There is no evidence to support the argument being made by stockbrokers and investment funds that the markets will rise to new heights in the foreseeable future. For 11 years they have been talking to their book. Since 2000, the only way to make money on the market has been by trading in an out- which is why the hedge fund industry boomed.

Stock Market Sure Looks Like 2008 / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market

By: Tony_Pallotta

"He observed that human emotions collectively had major impacts on the on stock prices and the patterns seen in the Stock Markets in general." ~ From a book on the teachings of Jesse Livermore

When you think of it in the short term markets are nothing more than a group of people trying to process data and understand what others are doing all under the stress of losing personal wealth. They are trying to solve a problem that in may ways is not solvable unless one can adapt. Similar to a group of Navy SEALs on a mission. They are successful only if they can adjust to the changing situation. There's a reason few are SEALs and few are successful in this business.

Economists Refuse to Recognize the New Great Depression / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2011

By: Clif_Droke

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe recent financial slump has caused economists to take stock of the possibility of a "double dip" recession. Most of them, however, won't admit that the economic contraction which began in late 2007 is still underway and, worse still, has a few more years to run according to the Kress cycles. In this commentary we'll address this issue and have a look at where the cycles are leading the financial market and the economy.

By: J_W_Jones

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleBack on August 7th the S&P 500 was in the midst of a panic induced selloff and the bulls were running scared.

Volatility is Not The Same As Risk in the Stock Markets / Stock-Markets / Volatility

By: Rory_Gillen

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleIf it looks like risk, feels like risk and acts like risk, it is natural to conclude that it is risk. But in turbulent times, such as now, investors must remind themselves that volatility is not the same as risk.

Gold and Stocks Are About To Move in Opposite Directions Get Ready! / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2011

By: Chris_Vermeulen

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe past few weeks traders and investors have been completely spooked from the surge of negative news and collapsing stock prices. This fear can be seen by looking at the volume on the GLD gold ETF fund. With gold being in the spot light for several years now and the fact that anyone can own gold simply through buying some GLD shares. It only makes sense that reading the volume on this chart gives us a good feel for what the masses are feeling emotionally.

Stock Market Handle Time Continues... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011

By: Jack_Steiman

And that means whipsaw, but little action worth talking about. The top today at 1208 should be the near-term high, although we will look for signs that it could be exceeded in the days ahead. 1101 is the clear low, and that level may never be taken out to the down side. The question I am being asked, already, is how long do these handles last. The best answer I can give is, no one knows, but a multi-month handle is very possible, if not likely. The bears did their best to take the markets down below 1249, and they did a great job. When we got extremely oversold, the market bottomed at 1101, and I talked about a handle to form, and that's in place now. It will be boring, and probably long lasting. Lots of whipsaw. Very emotional. In the end nothing from nothing. In the months to come, it'll make a move out of that handle, and there's no way to know, for sure, which way it'll break. It'll be dependent upon economic reports to come over that time.
