The Moral Hazard of Financial Markets Regulation / Stock-Markets / Market Regulation
By: Dr_Ron_Paul
Since the bailout bill passed, I have been frequently disturbed to hear "experts" wrongly blaming the free market for our recent economic problems and calling for more regulation. In fact, further regulation can only make things worse.Read full article... Read full article...

Stock Market Pauses Ahead of Tuesdays Presidential Election / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets
By: Harry_Boxer
We got basically what we thought we would on Monday -- a quieter session, lower volume, and slightly lower prices. There was a little bit of afternoon volatility, but for the most part the indices opened mixed, worked their way sharply higher initially, and then went into a couple-hour consolidation. It looked like that they maybe would try to break out, but when they failed to break through on two different occasions they then rolled over in the afternoon. Then they retested Friday afternoon's lows and the rising trendlines, bounced sharply, but in the last 10 minutes once again slipped sharply lower and gave back half the late rally, closing negative on the session.Read full article...

Emerging Markets Turnaround is Getting Closer—Here’s Why / Stock-Markets / Emerging Markets
By: Frank_Holmes
These are the kind of markets that test the courage of investors.
Currency volatility overlaying equity volatility has exaggerated all price actions. We believe the trillions of dollars of liquidity slowly filtering through the financial system will produce sunshine for these markets.

Current Position of the Market
SPX: Long-term trend -
Down! The very-long-term cycles have taken over earlier than anticipated and if they make their lows when expected, the bear market which started in October 2007 should continue until 2012-2014.
SPX: Intermediate trend - Potential lows were made in October. A pull-back into November is probable, and new lows are still possible.

Bullish Stock Market Technicals and Seasonal's / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets
By: Mike_Burk
The good news is: With a 19.9% advance in the last 4 trading days the Russell 2000 (R2K) is only 0.1% below the popular definition of a bull market.
Short Term - Many of the short term indicators are off the charts, trying to read anything into them is too risky.

The Financial Crisis Next Shoe to Drop / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2008
By: Marty_Chenard
To many, things are starting to look rosier. Bank liquidity flows are starting to improve ... not great, but showing some improvement.
At the same time ... Bush knows it hasn't been enough of an improvement, so he warned banks that they better start opening up the lending spigots. Banks are afraid, risk averse, and resisting. Twenty five percent of "excellent credit rating borrowers" are being declined when trying to get a new car loan. Next, I expect that Bush will push the bank Regulatory Agencies to put a lot of pressure on banks to start lending.

Stocks Bear Market Worst is Likely Behind Us / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: John_Derrick
To get some perspective on the current market conditions, it may be helpful to look at what some bear markets of the past have looked like.
Below is a chart that goes back to 1940, and you can see that what we've recently gone through was the second-worst five-day period of time over the last 68 years. It was essentially a market crash. The only other thing that's really even close was the crash of 1987.

Larry Edelson writes: First, some important news no one else is telling you: The Dow is now trading at the equivalent of the 2,500 level, down a whopping 77% from its high.
Yes, you read that right. In terms of “honest” money — gold — the Dow Jones Industrials has already lost 77% of its value!
