Was That The Beginning of a New Rally For Gold and Silver? / Companies / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Przemyslaw_Radomski
In our previous essay we mentioned that although it was not clearly visible in the past weeks, looking at the charts with the RSI and stochastic readings in mind, silver's historical cyclical tendencies point to a downturn. This decline could be easily triggered by a downturn on the general stock market.

By: David_DeGraw
“The ideas of economists… are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed, the world is ruled by little else.” — John Maynard Keynes
How much more evidence of a financial coup and the THEFT of TRILLIONS of DOLLARS do we need before the media and our politicians do something, anything, to restore a rule of law in this nation? What is it going to take?

How To Safely Buy CLNE / Companies / Company Chart Analysis
By: David_Grandey
Yesterday CLNE broke out on an earnings related news release. Blink your eye and you missed it. So now what? Do we do what the master TV herder says we should do and that is just blindly buy buy buy? Or should we do what we here at All About Trends preach all the time and that is to NOT CHASE BUSES and let them come to us.

Five Reasons I’m Skeptical About Target-Date Retirement ETFs / Companies / Exchange Traded Funds
By: Ron_Rowland
Are you planning to retire someday? Unless you are already retired the answer is almost certainly “Yes.” It’s the American Dream!
Of course, there’s nothing magical about age 65. Some people end their careers earlier and busy themselves in different ways. Others enjoy their work so much they keep on going as long as their health allows.

Petropavlovsk’s Iron Ore Prospects / Companies / Metals & Mining
By: Miles_Banner
We last wrote about Petropavlovsk back in December 09. Back then we noted the unusual selling of shares from Peter Hambro and Pavel Maslovsky, the two directors. Last week one of our readers drew our attention to the fact we’ve not spoken about them for a while. Fear not, they have been on our radar and as of last week fresh news caught our interest.

Constructive Signs for Ultra Oil & Gas ProShares ETF DIG / Companies / Oil Companies
By: Mike_Paulenoff
The Ultra Oil & Gas ProShares ETF (NYSE: DIG) popped above key Feb-Mar resistance at 34.40/50 to a recovery high at 35.05, after which it revisited the breakout level into this morning’s low at 34.25. This morning’s upside pivot reversal from 34.25 has propelled the DIG to a higher recovery high at 35.10 so far. The fact that the price structure is holding above the breakout plateau (34.25) within a larger base-like pattern that projects to 37.50 next is a very constructive sign. At this juncture, only a decline that breaks 34.25 will begin to compromise the developing bullish scenario.

By: Money_Morning
Peter Krauth writes: There's nothing like scarcity and supply disruptions to fuel violent price spikes. And there's nothing like the basic human needs for food and water to light that fuse.
Today's world food supplies run on razor-thin inventories.

The Dividend Stock Recovery: Investors Get Ready for a High-Yield Bonanza / Companies / Dividends
By: Money_Morning
Alexander Green writes: It's been a tough time for income investors lately.Ten-year Treasuries pay less than 4%. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index yields just over 2%. Money market fund returns are microscopic, paying an average of just 0.05%. (At that rate, it will take your money one thousand years to double.) Read full article... Read full article...

Which Stocks and Sectors Will Lead the Economic Recovery? / Companies / Investing 2010
By: Money_Morning
Jon D. Markman writes: A lot of my commentary lately on the markets has been relatively short-term oriented. Today let's take a moment to pan back and consider the weekly perspective, which is rather benign, even positive.
From this point of view, stocks are broadly recovering from their most oversold condition since March of last year -- and the release of the energy stored up then persisted at near-full strength for three months.

Bristol-Myers Squibb Company BMY Thrust Off Neckline / Companies / Company Chart Analysis
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (BMY) continues to act extremely well technically. Below is what I wrote three weeks ago, with BMY at 24.61. The big picture analysis remains unchanged, and this week's positive action -- especially today's surge from 24.45 to 25.30 -- argues strongly that the price structure has started the thrust off of the neckline retest (Jan low at 23.49). If such a scenario proves accurate, then BMY should be heading for 26.00-26.60 directly from here.

By: Money_Morning
Martin Hutchinson writes: In many ways, Brazil offers some of the best prospects among emerging markets and deserves to be a core holding in any international portfolio.
Brazil's economy had only a shallow recession and is now recovering nicely. Its market has been one of the best performing since Dec. 31, 2008, and both inflation and the budget deficit remain under control.

Why the Prudential-AIG Deal Contradicts Capitalism / Companies / Mergers & Acquisitions
By: Money_Morning
Martin Hutchinson writes: To inattentive observers, the recent announcement that the British insurance company Prudential PLC (NYSE ADR: PUK) would pay $35.5 billion for American International Group Inc.'s (NYSE: AIG) Asian insurance operation, AIA, might seem like just another belated expansion of the old British Empire - a strange contrast to the sale of the premier British chocolate company Cadbury PLC (NYSE ADR: CBY) to Kraft Foods Inc. (NYSE: KFT) last month.

The Story of Palm Inc (PALM) / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Submissions
Palm, Inc (PALM) is an interesting story. The stock has taken a beating in recent days due to an acknowledgement that they simply aren’t selling as many of their phones as analysts had hoped. I believe that PALM is not a good investment by any means, for a few raesons that I’m going to outline here.

By: Nadeem_Walayat
The 41% tax payer owned Lloyds TSB bank continues to declare abysmal losses of £6.3 billion for 2009 against £6.7 billion for 2008 as a direct consequence of the HBOS cancer that continues to eat into the banks balance sheet. The balance sheet suffered a £24 billion bad loans impairment, against profits generated by the branches of £1.3 billion and against £20 billion of tax payer capital injected into the bank and a further £150 billion of tax payer loans and guarantees.

Targeting Toyota, U.S. Economic War Against Japan / Companies / US Politics
By: Mike_Whitney
Does anyone really believe that Toyota is being pilloried in the media for a few highway fatalities?
Nonsense. If Congress is so worried about innocent people getting killed, then why haven't they indicted US commander Stanley McChrystal for blowing up another 27 Afghan civilians on Sunday?
