Ratings Agencies Greed and Fraud Magnified Credit Crisis / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2008

By: Money_Morning

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleShah Gilani writes: Underlying the credit crisis gripping the U.S. and world economies is a crisis of confidence. Blame has been laid at the feet of the U.S. Federal Reserve, and an investment bankers' brew of toxic financial products. Ultimately, however, it was the supposedly trustworthy rating agencies that got everyone to drink the poisoned Kool-Aid.

China Economic Warnings Signals to Invest? / Stock-Markets / China Stocks

By: Money_and_Markets

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleTony Sagami writes: Because of its rapid economic growth over the last 30 years, it's easy to forget that China is a communist country. The Chinese, like everybody else, love money. But the Communist party is clearly in control.

One of the areas controlled with an iron communist fist is China's media. The main TV station, China Central Television or CCTV, is owned, operated, and controlled by the government.

Stock Markets Soar as Fed ZIRP Makes Money Free / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets

By: PaddyPowerTrader

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleSo ZIRP(idée doo dah) as the Fed heads into uncharted waters by cutting rates by ¾% to only 0.25%. They will now buy Treasuries (i.e. quantitative easing) to help. So rates at zero for as long as it takes with the promise that they will buy MBS, ABS, GSE paper and any old iron if it helps counter this historic deflationary depression. Sanity clause has prevailed and we may not need to start learning Japanese. But more seriously and crucially, confidence has been (temporarily) instilled as ZIRP eases debt burdens, makes financing and refinancing cheaper and hopefully reflates assets prices.

Tuesday's Spectacular Bullish FOMC Session for Stocks / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets

By: Harry_Boxer

The markets had a spectacular session, starting with a gap up. They ran early, consolidated, and then ran again mid-morning. At that point they went into a narrow trading range ahead of the FOMC announcement. The FOMC elected to drop rates by 3/4 of a percent to a 1/4, and Wall Street liked it. The indices popped sharply, with the NDX in 15 minutes running from about 1210 to 1230. The S&P 500 jumped from about 884 to 899. They then backed and filled for another 25-30 minutes, and then exploded again, taking out the highs and running up sharply. They did get a late pullback, but in the last 10 minutes bounced sharply and closed at the highs for the day on the Dow and S&P 500, with the NDX trailing just a bit.

By: Clif_Droke

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleBlood in the streets all over the place - As the bear market ends and a new cyclical bull market begins with the bottoming of the 6-year cycle, we continue see the lagging effects of this year’s seismic volatility on almost a daily basis. For although the stock market price low has almost certainly been made and the 6-year cycle is starting to assert itself on the upside, more and more investors have capitulated to the emotional exhaustion the previous months have subjected them to.

Investment Momentum for Infrastructure is Building / Stock-Markets / Infrastructure

By: John_Derrick

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWe've been talking infrastructure for a long time, and more people are now listening after President-elect Obama revealed that his best idea for stimulating the U.S. economy is through a massive infrastructure spending program.

While details are still being worked out, it appears that Mr. Obama will quickly propose a two-year fiscal stimulus package worth up to $800 billion and that much of this amount would be directed toward infrastructure programs. To put this number in perspective, $800 billion is equivalent to about 5.5 percent of the nation's GDP.

The Next Big Bailout- Madoff!! / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis Bailouts

By: Brady_Willett

With the financial markets already in a state of panic and the global recession expected to worsen in 2009, we can ill afford to allow the financial institutions, charities, and rich idiots that entrusted Bernard Madoff with their money to go bust. As for the widespread contention that since Mr. Madoff committed fraud he deserves to go to jail, do not think of Madoff as operating a ponzi scheme so much as a Strong Armed Perception Fund (SAP Fund), and don't think of him as breaking the law so much breaking new ground in the arena of fictitious returns.

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe world's becoming a riskier place.

For a while there, it seemed that risk had been abolished. All through the boom, we still had terrorism, and we still had wars – but they didn't seem that important. They were sideshows, niggling little inconveniences in an otherwise near-perfect world.

Stock Markets Focus on FOMC Interest Rate Meeting / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets

By: PaddyPowerTrader

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleA wishy-washy, nothing sort of a day for equities yesterday. Although they were on the back foot, they only finished marginally underwater . The Nikkei held up reasonably well overnight despite news that once Teflon Toyota is the ask suppliers to slash prices by up to 30% next year. Steel makers fared the worst on this report. The market is now bracing itself for some ugly numbers from those former-masters-of-the-universe-but-now-humbled Goldman Sachs today before the bell.

Stock Markets Start Week on a Down Note / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets

By: Harry_Boxer

The market started the week off with a down note. They were lower from the get-go and then had a rather sharp sell-off, particularly on the Nasdaq 100 that took it from over 1200 down to the 1170 area. Mid-day they bounced back and forth, tried to stabilize, did roll over and take out the lows, setting new session lows late in the session. But there was no downside follow-through, and they snapped back very sharply, taking the NDX from 1167 to 1192, or 25 points in about a half hour. The S&P 500 went from 858 to about 874 over the same period of time. In the last 15 minutes they backed off again.

Credit Crisis Bailouts- No Free Lunch  / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis Bailouts

By: Captain_Hook

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleI will never forget the walk down the long narrow hallway to the offices of my economics professors in university, and in particular, on the door of one a solitary sign permanently fixed saying ‘NO FREE LUNCH'. At the time, this particular professor was not my favorite because I viewed him as a bit of a ‘hard-ass', where I was unable to calculate the exacting standards he wanted in my work. However as time has passed, this has all changed. Now, with the experience of life behind me, it's almost as if I am viewing the world through his eyes, looking at all the rot and corruption that permeates almost every aspect of our society.
