After the Market Crash Liquidity Starts to Repair Banking System / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2008
By: Paul_J_Nolte
Another historical week – the largest one day decline since the '87 crash and the largest one day gain since the '29 crash. OK, so the market is/has crashed – now what? Liquidity in the form of government and Federal Reserve funds are flooding the markets, buying nearly everything from bad bank debt to actual bank stock. Some have argued we are moving to a socialist society, but we'll leave the politics for someone else to discuss. Unfortunately the liquidity has not made it into the hands of those with loans outstanding or for those wanting to enter loan arrangements. The banking system is acting as a sponge, sopping up any and all liquidity it can find to repair very poor balance sheets. Read full article... Read full article...

Where The Heck Is The Stock Market Bottom? / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: Ronald_R_Cooke
A Logical Conclusion - One can make a case that sometime in 2010 our stock markets will “bottom out”. In this scenario, the DOW will decline below 5700 and the NASDAQ will fall under 430, after 33 to 35 months of highly volatile trading.
How did I reach this conclusion? Read on.

Stock Market Will Bottom Well Before the Economy / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: Chris_Ciovacco
Investing is really about risk management. When the odds are favorable, you expose some of your capital to the risk of loss in search of possible gains. The best time to invest is when both the technicals (charts) and fundamentals (valuations, future earning potential, etc.) are favorably aligned. There has never been and there never will be a time where the techncials and fundamentals are perfectly aligned, which is another way of saying there is always some form of risk in any financial market. It is simply the degree of risk which fluctuates.Read full article... Read full article...

By: Prieur_du_Plessis
BCA Research: Policymaker action finally hitting critical mass - “Fresh capital and government guarantees for bank liabilities are very positive signs that the credit crisis is nearing an end, although it will be a long road to recovery.

Investment Banks Turned Into Public Utilities / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis Bailouts
By: Mike_Whitney
"If you made it past the credit crisis, you are not making it past the economic carnage." Meredith A. Whitney, market analyst at Oppenheimer & Company It worked. So far. The credit markets have begun to thaw. Overnight Libor (London Interbank Offered Rate) dropped 27 basis points to 1.67 percent, the lowest level since September 2004. Three month Libor shed 40 basis points this week to 4.42 percent. The Libor-OIS spread and TED spread are edging downward, too. The VIX, the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index---also known as the "fear index"--has skyrocketed to 80, a new record. But that is to be expected; after all, Wall Street is in a panic.

Those Responsible for the Credit Crisis Should Go to Jail / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2008
By: Money_Morning
Keith Fitz-Gerald writes: By far, the No. 1 question I've received this week has been: Why aren't the guys who caused the credit-crisis meltdown headed for jail? Personally, I believe these savings-sapping, market-mashing miscreants ought to be rotting at the bottom of a deep dark hole. At the very least, they should be impoverished and prevented from capitalizing any further on the chaos they caused, meaning no book deals or fruitful forms of tell-alls.

Stock Market Short Lived Rallies Suggest Investors Want Out / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets
By: Mike_Burk
The good news is: New lows have fallen off sharply.
Short Term - The preludes to the crash of 87 and the crash of 08 were very different, but the price patterns that followed have, so far, been similar. The percentage of issues hitting new lows in the crash of 87 set a record that held until a week ago. The 5 day average of the absolute value of the percentage change of the S&P 500 (SPX) set a record in 87 that still holds.

Fed Fighting to Prevent 1930's Style Financial and Economic Deflation / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: Tim_Wood
It Still Ain't Gonna Work Plus A Quick Technical Look at Gold - As the market declined into the 2002 low we began to see more manipulation and efforts to hold the market up than ever before. In the wake of these desperately irresponsible acts, interest rates declined, the money supply expanded, banks embarked on ridiculously irresponsible lending practices and the housing bubble was born as was the commodity bubble. These acts by the Fed were a deliberate attempt to hold back the deflationary wrath of Kondratieff Winter, which is all about the purging of excess credit from the system. So, what do the geniuses in charge do? They promote more credit. Now that really makes sense doesn't it? Just as the economic cycle was trying to naturally deflate and purge itself of the credit excesses in 2001 and 2002, the brainiacs in charge stepped in and flooded the economy with more of what was ailing it. Credit. Read full article... Read full article...

Higher Near-Term Target for Nasdaq Qs / Stock-Markets / Tech Stocks
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Looking at the Q's (Nasdaq: QQQQ) from a near-term pattern and momentum perspective, the action during the past week could represent a double bottom in the making (around 29.30) or the conclusion of a significant downleg at yesterday's low (29.25) followed by the start of a potent recovery rally period. In either case, my work points higher to a minimum near-term target of 33.50 and then to test the Sep-Oct down trendline in the vicinity of 35.00/20. (11:55 am ET, $32.32).Read full article...

JPMorgan Responsible for the Destruction of U.S. Financial System / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Jim_Willie_CB
The tag team of JPMorgan as the monster and Goldman Sachs as its harlot represent a powerful pair that is more responsible for destroying the entire US financial system than 95% of the American public has any awareness. The colossus of JPMorgan is a monster, a predator, nurtured by pond scum. It has gobbled up Chase Manhattan, Manufacturers Hanover, Chemical Bank, Bank One, and more over the past two decades. Their profound presence in keeping the USTreasury Bond yields down can never be understated. They do so by managing 85% of the credit derivatives on the planet. They distorted usury prices, as in price of borrowed money, thus aggravating the LIBOR (London InterBank Offered Rate) market in a very visible manner. Read full article... Read full article...
