Why May’s Stock Market and Commodities Gains Can Continue / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: John_Derrick

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe book is closed on May, and what a great month it was for commodities, precious metals and emerging markets. And there are several good reasons to believe that the strong performance will continue in June and beyond.

The price of oil rose nearly 30 percent in May to close above $66 a barrel. This was oil’s biggest monthly gain since March 1999, when it climbed more than 36 percent. Natural gas picked up 14 percent, reversing its negative trend so far in 2009.

Stocks Bear Market Rally, Debt Is Your Worst Enemy / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market

By: Captain_Hook

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDebt is your worst enemy right now – make no mistake about it. And the reasons for this understanding are plain for all to see, with the most profound being the next round of deleveraging might be just around the corner, meaning worsening asset price deflation would make it impossible for most to ever escape the debt death trap outside of a jubilee, which is the last thing our blood sucking financial institutions want. No, no, no. They are all for usury and kicking the little guy when he’s down however, with the most blatant example of this being credit card issuers (banks) jacking interest rates to exorbitant levels not just for those who miss a payment, but for everybody with an outstanding balance. What’s worse of course is this is being done in the face of a collapsing economy that greedy bankers are all too aware of, and despite evidence such policy could tip the economy over on its head.

GM RIP, NOT Too Big to Fail / Stock-Markets / US Auto's

By: PaddyPowerTrader

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWith the Irish Bank Holiday, it’s a quick one today. Today sees the once-great General Motors humbly applying for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. It must have been a hard weekend as the clock ticked towards the June 1 government deadline to restructure. The company plan to name turnaround executive Al Koch to serve as its chief restructuring officer to help the company through bankruptcy protection. GM has already has received about £12.5 billion in government loans and could get nearly £19 billion more to make it through what is expected to be a 60 to 90-day reorganisation in bankruptcy court.

Stocks Bear Market Rally Consolidating Before the Rally Resumes / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market

By: Andre_Gratian

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleCurrent Position of the Market
SPX: Long-term trend - Down! The very-long-term cycles have taken over and if they make their lows when expected, the bear market which started in October 2007 should continue until 2012-2014. This would imply that much lower prices lie ahead.

SPX: Intermediate trend - Sideways! The counter-trend rally which started on March 6 is undergoing a consolidation which could last two or three more weeks, after which the bear market rally will continue.

Stock Market Investor Sentiment Intent on Crushing the Bears / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market

By: Guy_Lerner

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThere is no meaningful difference in the "Dumb Money" and "Smart Money" indicators from last week. The "dumb money" is extremely bullish, and their persistence is being rewarded as the major indices turned in winning performances for the month of May. The "smart money" is bearish but not to an extreme degree.

Stock Market Shrugs off GM Bankruptcy / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: Anthony_Cherniawski

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleMain Street takes a hit in GM bankruptcy - The loser in a General Motors Corp. bankruptcy would be Main Street, not Wall Street, said a lawyer who represented Chrysler LLC’s dissident lenders and is trying to organize bondholders who hold up to $7 billion in GM’s debt.  What’s being offered is the U.S.-backed plan to give the American and Canadian governments as much as 69 percent of the equity and a 17.5 percent trust for unions, while bondholders only get 10%.    GM plans to file for bankruptcy on June 1, people familiar with the matter said.

Stock Market Investors Mindset of Guaranteed Economic Destruction / Stock-Markets / Stock Market Sentiment

By: LewRockwell

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleGary North writes: Most people will not change. Too radical. Not going with the flow. Not betting against the herd.

The best examples in the 20th century were Jews in Germany in 1933. They stayed. This included Jewish bankers, all of whom could have left. They thought they could deal with Hitler. They did not read Mein Kampf. They did not take it seriously.

Stocks Bear Market Warning! Counter-Trend Moves Spark False Hopes / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market

By: Tim_Wood

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAs the counter-trend moves continue, the optimism grows.   William Peter Hamilton, the great Dow theorist who followed in the footsteps on Charles H. Dow, warned against allowing “the wish to father the thought.”    Based on the technical and statistical work that I do, the data is telling me that pretty much all of the moves we have been seeing over the last 2 to 6 months, depending on which market you are looking at, are counter-trend moves.  As a result of these counter-trend affairs, the powers that be continue to think that they have the problem under control.    The average person on the street sees that the markets are rising and they too begin to think that the worst is behind us and that maybe the bail-outs and various stimulus packages are working.

Stock Market Consolidation Continues... Nasdaq Leading / Stock-Markets / Stock Index Trading

By: Jack_Steiman

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThere is a lot of anxiety out there. You can feel it.  It has an energy. It has a vibration to it. It's the feeling of fear. The feeling that things are about to fall apart. Like we're sitting on the precipice of disaster. Maybe we are. Are we? You want to try and anticipate things if you're a market player. You want to be ahead of the next big move. We've been lucky enough or fortunate enough to be able to do that the past many years. One of the ways that gets done is when you see something technically that goes against the grain of the current trend.

Elliott Wave Theory Based Trading Into and out-of the Stock Market March 2009 Low / Stock-Markets / Economic Theory

By: Joseph_Russo

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWe trust that all those who have engaged in trading markets for any period of time will conclude that it is an unrealistic expectation that any single or group of trading strategies can work to perfection all of the time.  Price action is elusive more often than not.  As a result, losses are a most assured and inevitable part of the entire trading process.  However, unwelcomed but anticipated nonetheless, cumulative debilitating losses need not dominate ones trading experience.  Similar to a professional baseball player’s batting average, highly successful trading strategies need only perform with consistency a small percentage of the time in order to deliver phenomenal benchmarked measures of success.

How Manipulated Financial Markets Really Work / Stock-Markets / Market Manipulation

By: Stephen_Lendman

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWall Street's mantra is that markets move randomly and reflect the collective wisdom of investors. The truth is quite opposite. The government's visible hand and insiders control markets and manipulate them up or down for profit - all of them, including stocks, bonds, commodities and currencies.

Stocks Bear Market Rally or Real Bull Market Rebound? / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bull Market

By: William_R_Thomson

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleOVERVIEW - THERE is a great divide among economists on whether the global economy has begun a sustainable recovery from its worst recession in 70 years or is simply slowing its rate of contraction. Are the so-called 'green shoots' of recovery firmly rooted, or just frail seedlings destined to wither again in an economic climate of prolonged stagnation and deflation? For investors, this translates into a question of whether stock prices are poised to enter a new bull market or are simply in a classic bear market rally. BT gets the views of four pundits.

Bullish and Bearish Stock Market Plays for the 2009 Hurricane Season / Stock-Markets / Investing 2009

By: Uncommon_Wisdom

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleSean Brodrick writes: Whether the 2009 hurricane season turns out to be a snoozer or a bruiser, I have four picks for you — two bullish, two bearish — to play this summer’s potentially wild weather.

The major hurricane forecasters have made their predictions, and it’s for a “moderate” hurricane season. Cooler seas off the coast of Africa and a prediction of a weak El Nino get the credit for the calmer forecast.

Financials XLF ETF Coiled Pattern About to Break in Which Direction? / Stock-Markets / Banking Stocks

By: Mike_Paulenoff

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleI scan the various sector charts to see if any of them provide clues about the eventual directional breakout of the major equity market ETFs from "The May Coil" pattern.  One “coiling” market is the Financial Select SPDR ETF (NYSE:  XLF), which has been traversing a contracting range since its high on May 7 at 13.15.  This pattern reflects a classic series of lower highs juxtaposed against higher lows, which when perched atop a major upmove usually breaks out to the upside within the profile of a bull flag continuation pattern.

The Great Bond Market Massacre Spills Over into Stocks / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: PaddyPowerTrader

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAs I’ve written in this column before, the Fed was always playing a dangerous game of chicken with the market, with its half hearted attempts at Quantitative Easing. To date Quantitative Easing has failed miserably and the rise up in 10 year bond yields to 3.72% from 2.5% in March, sending mortgage rates soaring has completely neutered the Fed.

Why the S&P 500 Stock Market Index Could Crash Another 50% / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market

By: Graham_Summers

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWith the words “green shoots” and “bull market” getting more and more coverage in the mainstream financial press, it’s worth considering if this current market/ economy is actually improving. Personally I don’t know what data the folks at CNBC are looking at. Because to me, all signs point to further wealth destruction and great economic contraction to come in the months ahead.

Can North Korean Nukes Rattle Global Stock & Financial Markets? / Stock-Markets / North Korea

By: Gary_Dorsch

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleNews that North Korea’s mercurial leader Kim Jong Il authorized the detonation of a nuclear bomb on May 25th, comparable to those that obliterated Hiroshima and Nagasaki, barely caused a ripple in the global financial markets. Japanese and South Korean stocks initially fell in a knee-jerk reaction, but soon recouped most of their losses, as traders shrugged off the nuclear fallout, - figuring it was just a harmless display of Kim Jong Il’s temper tantrums that erupts once every few years.

Ending Today's Financial & Economic Crisis Simply and Easily, in America and Globally / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2009

By: Stephen_Lendman

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleSome of the best ideas are often the simplest. When applied to the global economic crisis, the solution is easier than imagined. What's hard, in fact a Gordian Knot, is the political will to embrace it. But even matters that great can be solved by a bold stoke, and according to legend, Alexander the Great's "Alexandrian solution" was achieved with one stroke of his sword, cutting the Knot in half. Applied to the global economic crisis, it means addressing it with effective policies, not ones wrecking America and other troubled nations worldwide.
