The Bail-In: Or How You Could Lose Your Money in the Bank / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2016
By: Submissions
David Chapman writes: Buried in the Liberal Federal Budget that was introduced on March 22, 2016, under Chapter 8 - Tax Fairness and a Strong Financial Sector, was a section titled "Introducing a Bank Recapitalization 'Bail-in' Regime."

Stock Market Rough Week Ahead / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Ed_Carlson
While the eighth year of a Presidential term calls for a rally from mid-May to early/mid-June, it doesn’t promise to be straight up. This week looks set to see a correction downward against the bigger trend. The McClellan Oscillator’s dip below -150 and the lower Bollinger Band on 5/19/16 (the one-year anniversary of the top of the bull market in the Dow) marked the low of the recent sell-off. It closed above zero last week but the bears have the benefit of the doubt given the ‘complex’ structure below zero.

British Pound Climb Continues Despite Brexit Anxiety Driving GDP Growth to Lowest in Years / Currencies / British Pound
By: AnyOption
While the Pound has recently shrugged off a further tapering in the economy, Brexit fears continue to define the economic climate as evidenced by decelerating household spending and falling business investment. As the vote draws nearer, the economic data is likely to show that the anxiety is becoming more acute, with an even deeper pullback in fundamental activity anticipated. Current forecasts are showing growth retreating even further to a 0.30% pace for the second quarter, a figure that could easily be lower based on the sluggish attitude of consumers and businesses as they await the outcome. In the meantime, the Pound continues to be sensitive to the polling, with expectations of a “Bremain” vote driving the Pound higher, despite the obvious risks to the outlook that could sharply reverse the existing momentum.Read full article...

Trump and Hillary Don't Know How to Fix the Economy / ElectionOracle / US Presidential Election 2016
By: MISES
Justin Murray writes: Recently, Hillary Clinton was taped ridiculing Donald Trump for lacking a detailed plan for the American economy. The message, so it goes, is that Trump is not suited for the presidency because he doesn’t have a plan on how to turn the American economy around.
But is it really more dangerous to elect a president who makes up economic policy on the fly than one who proclaims to have a detailed plan for us?

By: Harry_Boxer
The stock market indices started the day out on a positive note, and then sold off dramatically, taking the Nasdaq 100 from 4526 down to 4497 in a 3-wave, constructive pullback. The S&P 500 pulled back from 2103 to 2089. A very later, 45-minute rally took place and brought the Nasdaq 100 up 30 points and the S&P 500 10 points. A last, 2-minute pullback brought them off that rally high, and they closed mixed on the day.

Counter Trend Rally in Gold Due; Stock Market Topping? / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2016
By: Brad_Gudgeon
The GLD chart below shows gold in a declining wedge. Cyclically, an 8 TD low is due in gold and a 4 TD low due in GDX on June 1st. A strong rally is indicated into June 2nd for both gold and GDX.
The stock market (as measured by the S&P 500) has either made its secondary top on May 31st or will likely do so on June 1, in my opinion. Another large drop is due in the weeks ahead.
