Profit from Obama's Real Stocks Bull Market / Stock-Markets / Investing 2009
By: Q1_Publishing
“The cost of healthcare eats up more and more of our savings each year, yet we keep delaying reform…we can no longer afford to put health care reform on hold. Our recovery plan will invest in electronic health records and new technology that will reduce errors, bring down costs, ensure privacy and save lives.” President Barrack Obama Read full article...

Bullish Pattern for Semiconductors SMH ETF / Stock-Markets / Tech Stocks
By: Mike_Paulenoff
All of the action from October 2009 to the present represents a developing large base pattern prior to a potent upmove, or it represents a sideways congestion period ahead of another major downleg within the dominant bear trend. That said, however, my near-term work indicates that regardless of the outcome of the sideways pattern, the Semiconductor HLDRs ETF (NYSE: SMH) should be in the midst of a loop up to 18.00 and possibly 18.60 in any case. At this juncture, from a big picture perspective, only a smash beneath the 2/24 low at 15.82 will invalidate the current rally scenario.Read full article... Read full article...

Stock Sectors Worth Watching: Food, Gold and Healthcare… / Stock-Markets / Investing 2009
By: Oxbury_Research
In a bear market, we're always keen to spot anything that's outperforming its peers. Even the strongest stocks and sectors can get beaten down when panic selling or forced selling wreaks havoc on prices. It's a bit like boxing: even the toughest boxer can get rocked with a hard swing to the jaw. What sets apart the truly tough boxers is their ability to bounce right back up and continue the fight.

Stock Markets to Recover as Gold Bull takes a Breather / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009
By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne
My previous editorial showed the super-bullish intermediate term (12 to 18 month) outlook for Gold. My technical work called for a correction that would lead to a massive surge beyond $1,000 and to $2,000. It now appears that the gold correction is here. More importantly, the near term peak in Gold is coinciding with what will be the first major tradeable rally in stocks during this historic bear market. Read full article... Read full article...

Credit Default Swaps: How Fleas Kill A Dog / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2009
By: David_Haas
I‘ve been on the lookout for an article with a concise description of the ongoing saga of the Credit Default Swaps (CDS) markets to pass along to readers and I have found a nice, simple one on the Guardian UK website. This article is written at a level any newbie can understand yet provides current news any veteran would appreciate. As a bonus, it conveys, once again, the scale of the debt bubble the world economy is trying to swallow which is now widely recognized as massive. Read full article... Read full article...

Late Session Dive Sends Stocks Indices Lower / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets
By: Harry_Boxer
The markets were quite volatile swinging down and then back up again and getting hit at the end of the day to close mostly lower on the session. The day started out with a gap down, and then we had a 5-wave decline that took us to the lows for the session around an hour after the opening. They bounced back, failed at resistance, and then retested, but that was successful. When that occurred the indices started an afternoon rally that was interrupted mid-way with a sharp set-back, with the set-back holding intraday moving averages.Read full article...

Nasdaq Q's Recovery Rally Incomplete / Stock-Markets / Tech Stocks
By: Mike_Paulenoff
My near-term work in the PowerShares QQQ Trust (NASDAQ: QQQQ) argues that the recovery rally that started at Monday's low of 27.73 and which extended yesterday to a high at 28.98 is only partially complete. After the current "intervening" pullback runs its course, the Q's should pivot to the upside for a test of yesterday's high -- on the way to 29.10/30 thereafter. Only a plunge that breaks and sustains beneath Monday's low at 27.73 will wreck my near-term scenario.Read full article... Read full article...

Stocks Bear Market Uncanny Parallels to 1929 Crash / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: MoneyWeek
The stock market crash of 2008 played out like 1929 almost to the day. In fact the pattern was so uncannily close, that I became convinced the post-crash rebound would do the same and we would see a similar spring bounce. Read full article... Read full article...

I had a simple thought the other day. It has been over ten years now since I have been investing and trading in the stock market and the stock market right now is so much different than it was ten years ago, yet no one seems to realize it. Everyone wants stock tips and is trying to guess the bottom. Read full article... Read full article...

Dow Lags S&P on Stock Market Turnaround Tuesday / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets
By: Kingsley_Anderson
Turnaround Tuesday indeed! In all seriousness, if you have followed the market over the last few months, big percentage gains such as we saw today have become the norm. Remember that most huge, rip-your-face-off rallies do in fact occur in bear markets. So the bottom line is, don’t get too excited.Read full article... Read full article...

The Euro – Are There Any Hard Currencies Left? / Stock-Markets / Fiat Currency
By: Axel_Merk
With gold reaching $1,000 an ounce and posting new highs versus all currencies, are there any hard currencies left? Over the past 100 years, we have moved further and further away from the gold standard. We see no indication for that trend to reverse; if anything, it may accelerate. As a result, we have cautioned long before this credit crisis erupted that there is no such thing as a safe asset anymore; investors may want to take a diversified approach to something as mundane as cash. This lack of confidence in cash goes beyond “cash equivalents” such as money market funds, commercial paper, auction rate securities, to currencies themselves. We all rely on cash for liquidity, but are concerned about purchasing power. Read full article... Read full article...

Dow Jones Stock Market Index Forecast 2009 - Update1 / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: Nadeem_Walayat
This analysis seeks to update the forecast of 20th January 2009 for the Dow Jones stocks index in the light of subsequent volatile price action.
The 2009 forecast is ( Dow Jones Forecast 2009 - 20th Jan 2009) - In Summary , I do not know at precisely what price level the Dow will make a low during 2009, my best estimate at this time is 6,600, but I am expecting that it will mark the start of a multi-year bull market that will eventually make 2008-2009's price action appear as a mere minor blip, much as the 1987 crash appears on today's price charts.

Stocks Plunge to 11 year Lows Replicating 1930's Bear Market / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: PaddyPowerTrader
So, back to the future, doing the time warp again, as the current market bear took us back to spring 1997 levels yesterday. Worryingly it was the NASDAQ 's big tech names (Apple –4.66%, Intel –5.48%, Microsoft –4.39%) and raw stocks that showed the downside leadership while Alcoa (-7.63%) was the big drag on the Dow . Whispers of more financial follies at the black hole that is AIG(reed) who want another bailout of the bailout of the bailout certainly didn't help either. I'd watch the whole insurance sector on the back of this. Resistance seems futile. By the way, 1997 was the year that the Nobel Prize for Economics is won by Long Term Capital Management stars Robert Merton and Myron Scholes! Read full article... Read full article...

Ineffective Alphabet Soup Policy Could Trigger Deflation Scare / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009
By: Captain_Hook
The markets are falling apart much faster than originally anticipated, which is troubling with respect to the inflation case. This is why we highlighted the scary reversals in M1 and M3 growth rates earlier in the week, to alert you to the possibility conditions might progress such that general price weakness could develop moving forward. While it's true such discussion might be premature, and it would take time for such reversals to have lasting effect, never the less, it's disturbing to see money supply trends possibly turning down at this time with a major sell signal in the stock market now in the bag.

Banks to Nationalize or Not to Nationalize / Stock-Markets / Nationalization
By: Paul_J_Nolte
To nationalize or not to nationalize, that is the question. Whether it is nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of (the markets) or to take up arms against the sea of troubles and by opposing end them. With a bit of poetic license we could easily rework the Hamlet's soliloquy to bring it out of the kingdom and into the banking system.Read full article... Read full article...
