Together with Treasury chief Hank Paulson and Fed boss Ben Bernanke, he presided over the crisis at the Bush administration, which let the conflagration get out of control. He then led the Obama administration's response.

Trade Secret For being Positioned to Profit When Stocks Fall / Stock-Markets / Stock Index Trading
By: ...
MoneyMorning.com Shah Gilani writes: I’ve been telling you about market “Disruptors” for several weeks now, and showing how these “agent-of-change” catalysts are the trigger points for some of the greatest profit opportunities you’ll find.
But that’s only part of the message I’ve been emphasizing to you in our get-togethers here.
I’ve also urged you to keep your eyes open for all profit opportunities – on both the “long” side of the market… as well as on the “short” side.

Stock Investors Should Keep an Eye on the Dow Transportation Index / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Marty_Chenard
When does the market break down?
There are a lot of ol' timers out there who have their programs set for "not going against the DOW Theory". That means, if the Dow Transports and the Dow Industrials fail to the downside, sell programs will kick in.

Lindsay Forecasting the End of the Stocks Bull Market / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Ed_Carlson
The first step in forecasting an important high is accomplished using Lindsay's 15yr interval. It isolates an eleven month period in which the high is found. Lindsay wrote that the interval (15yr-15yr, 11m) can be counted from any "important" low leaving the identification of the low somewhat ambiguous.

Financial Markets - There Is No Silver Lining / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2015
By: Harry_Dent
Rodney Johnson writes: As I read the news and watch the markets, I’m struck by the yawning difference between what’s going on with the economy and what is happening with equities.
I know the worn out arguments.
People are buying stocks because they don’t have many choices. That’s fair, to some extent. The return on stocks (dividends, expected earnings growth) is higher than the interest paid on bonds.

Stock Market Sell Status is Upgraded / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
SPX has now crossed its 50-day Moving Average at 2089.47. This is an aggressive sell signal with confirmation beneath its prior low at 2067.93. We’ll probably see some back-testing of the 50-day before it resumes its decline. There is a good possibility of a trendline break in the Orthodox Broadening Top today.

Stocks and Bond Markets Reach an Epiphany... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
Good Morning!
The SPX Premarket has bounced from the 50-day Moving Average at 2089.58 this morning. It appears that the algos have been turned on while the volume is light to ramp it back, but so far SPX remains negative prior to the open.
USD/JPY had a sharp sell-off while SPX was in decline. It is attempting a retracement, but appears to be stalled at 120.14. Meanwhile, SPX appears to have given up all the gains from the positive employment report form Friday.

Bill Gross Promises to Give "Everything" Away / Stock-Markets / Social Issues
By: Bloomberg
Bill Gross of Janus Capital sat down with Bloomberg Television's Erik Schatzker at his office in Newport Beach, California to discuss his new life, how he defines success and why he's giving away his multi-billion-dollar fortune. On how much he's given away, Gross said: "I think to this point probably $600 million to $700 million."
Gross went on to say "We'll give everything that we have other than our home away to either philanthropic causes that I've talked about, or to the foundation." He said the amount he'll give away "is staggering, even to me."
On why he hasn’t talked more about his philanthropy, Gross said: "I guess Sue and I try and keep it quiet. We're not the--not that there's anything wrong with this,--but we're not the type to attend functions and parties and galas. We like to work underneath so to speak.”

Stock Market Another Try...Another Failure.....But Not Bearish.... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Jack_Steiman
Another day, another failure, but you are all used to that by now. Right? Hello? Look folks, we've seen this so many times over the past five months it shouldn't have a single adverse effect on you. Wash, rinse and repeat for so long it's off the charts. That said, we need to study how the market sold off today and ask ourselves if the selling that took place below the breakout level of 2119 to, let's call it, 2125 was really bearish. I would suggest it was not. The volume was light and the oscillators were leading, while price fell very little meaning solid unwinding without a lot of price depreciation. It would be very bad for the bulls if price was leading lower with force while the oscillators stayed up there. No longer are we overbought, and no one should feel as if today's selling was anything bad in terms of price.

Why Your Investment Portfolio Probably Isn’t as “Diversified” as You Think / Stock-Markets / Investing 2015
By: MoneyMetals
Stefan Gleason writes: “Am I diversified?”
It’s a question every investor should ask. It’s a question that CNBC’s bombastic stock guru Jim Cramer encourages his followers to pose. Unfortunately, Cramer’s answers are one-dimensional – he looks at diversification only in terms of stock holdings.
Having a stock portfolio that is diversified among different sectors and styles is just one aspect of diversification. During a stock market crash, any broadly diversified stock portfolio can be expected to go down with the market.

How to Profit from the Fed's Anti-Cash Stance / Stock-Markets / Banksters
By: ...
MoneyMorning.com Peter Krauth writes: Savvy investors know that over short time periods, and especially during bear markets, the saying “cash is king” often holds true. It provides security and allows for bargain hunting when assets are cheap.
However, through times of financial repression and negative interest rate policies (NIRP), central planners, along with banks, are changing that precept into “cash is trash.”

Stock Market Still Vulnerable to Big Downside / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Brad_Gudgeon
Last time I wrote, I was expecting a move to about 2064/65 or about a 2% drop into the 12.5 week cycle low. We got a 2.45% drop into May 6th, TD 13 of the 12.5 wk low. Our money flow indicators suggested more upside as they were washed out nicely and we went long the end of the day Thursday and got out on Friday and took 30 points out of the market (all provable on my web site).
