Stocks Bear Market, Is This 1929 All Over Again? / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: Austin_Galt
The Dow has been smashed over the last week which has brought out the usual doom and gloomer’s predicting Armageddon once again. There are several so called experts now predicting a 1929 style bear market.
Admittedly, it is hard not to get caught up in the emotion of days where the market sees a 1000 point intraday drop. So, is this really 1929 all over again? Well, for those that can’t be bothered to read the analysis, the short answer is no. Not as far as I’m concerned anyway.

Start of Stock Market Third Wave / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
SPX nearly took out SPX’s Monday morning lows by mere ticks. This doesn’t bode well for the overnight session. It appears that wave [iii] of 3 or C has begun.
Potentially bad news out of China may set the stage for a much larger sell-off both in China and in the US.

Stock Market Tanks In Last 15 Minutes; Correction Not Done? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: John_Rubino
That was sudden. After soaring at the open and holding big gains all day, US equities fell off the table in the last 15 minutes of trading, ending over 500 DOW points below the day’s high. Guess the, um, uncertainty isn’t over.

Stock Market Hybrid Lindsay Forecast for a Low / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Ed_Carlson
My July 28 commentary was the last time I gave an update on my Hybrid Lindsay model (a hybrid approach to the work of the late technician, George Lindsay). In that commentary I mentioned my forecast for a low in the period July 24-31 and that I felt the expected low was "very close and may have already been seen last Friday". As it turned out, the low was that Monday, July 27.

CNBC Bimbos Stock Market Rebound Ecstasy / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: James_Quinn
The CNBC bubble headed bimbos and brainless stock touting twits will be in ecstasy today as the ever predictable rebound is under way. The market will soar by over 500 points at the opening as the excuse of the day is China’s desperate interest rate cut to try and stem their downward spiraling economy and markets. The Wall Street captured boob tube brigade will tell their almost non-existent viewership that all is well. The terrifying plunge is in the past. The economy is great. Housing is strong. Stocks are now a bargain. It’s the best time to buy.

The Stock Market Crash Season is Here… / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Harry_Dent
It’s finally happening. The crash season is upon us.We’ve seen the early signs this week with leading stocks getting the carpet swept out right from underneath them.
China’s stocks are right where they were when its bubble burst 35% into July. UK stocks are in a correction. The DAX is in a correction. And the S&P 500 hasn’t busted quite as much – yet – but it’s dipped below that important level of 2,000 at the bottom of the S&P 500 Channel going back to late 2011.

The Stock Market Is Crashing…There’s No Escape / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Rodney_Johnson
My phone’s ringing off the hook. My inbox is flooded. Some people want to know if this market rout is the big one. Others want to cheer us on for sticking to our guns for so long. But everyone has a question: How long will this selloff last?The answer depends on why equities dropped in the first place. The problem is, there’s no single reason.

The Stock Markets Are Extraordinarily Volatile, Here's What to Do / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: ...
MoneyMorning.com Keith Fitz-Gerald writes: The Dow swung more than 1,000 points in each direction over the course of trading yesterday. The market chaos started in Asia and spread to the United States as the day went on.
That the markets plunged that far in the first place is a sure sign that panic is definitely setting in. I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel the angst just like you do. You're not alone.

MoneyMorning.com Shah Gilani writes: It’s no surprise that U.S. stocks have dropped into a free-fall mode.
I’ve been warning about the risks that stock, bond and other financial-asset prices face for some time.
Now that it’s happening, though, you need to understand these two things.

Stock Market Sound the Alarm / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Bob_Loukas
We saw an amazing capitulation event in equities these past three sessions. It’s clear that market internals were weak, but no one could have foreseen the degree and rapidity of the selloff. The major US indices have already entered into official corrections (-10%), while many world markets are approaching bear market (-20%) territory. And it’s unlikely the declines are over. Friday’s drop was a massive distribution day, with 93% of volume trading lower. With a 1,433 point decline, that was the largest three day DOW decline on record.
The VIX spiked sharply, showing the sort of extreme panic/fear in the market that is typically reserved for the end of Investor and Yearly Cycle declines. If we use the the four-year rally in equities as our guide, this type of sell-off corresponds with markets completing a Cycle Low, after which they should turn higher and rally for 10-20 weeks in a new Cycle.

Stock Markets Crashing, Gold Rising / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: MoneyMetals
Clint Siegner: U.S. Investors are on edge following last week’s and today’s sell-off in stocks around the globe. The carnage impacted equity markets in Asia, Europe, and the U.S.
Interestingly, the U.S. dollar also weakened. And bonds and gold are getting most of the safe-haven buying.

Stock Market Not Pretty.....Nothing Good For The Bulls..... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Jack_Steiman
I can simply say the market is toast and stop the rest of this note, but let's explore what's taken place over the past few days. Let me try to lead you to where I think we're going. We know that the long-term monthly charts have been flashing trouble for quite some time now. The Nasdaq monthly chart had been overbought with a 70+ RSI for two, full years. Red flag number one with gusto.

With today's market action, I don't have a lot of time, and I'm sure you don't either, but I want to drop a quick note before things get too crazy this week.
Here's the deal: This morning, the Dow crashed 1,000 at the open and has since rebounded. China declined 8.5%. Europe and the S&P 500 are down ~3% in early morning trading.

El-Erian: Stock Market Sell off Is Not 1998 or 2008 / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Bloomberg
Mohamed El-Erian, former CEO of Pimco and columnist for Bloomberg View, spoke with Bloomberg TV's Olivia Sterns and Alix Steel about the selloff in stocks and the implications for Fed policy.
When asked whether we are looking at another 1998, El-Erian said: "I'm not a buyer that this is 1998. Nor am I am a buyer that that's 2008. And in 1998 you had a lot of fixed exchange rates. Now you have fewer of those. And 2008 was about the payments and settlement system. This is not about the payments and settlement system. This is an old-fashioned repricing of two things."

The Fed Is Spooking the Stock Markets Not China / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Peter_Schiff
Fasten your seat belts, this ride is getting interesting. Last week the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down more than 1,000 points, notching its worst weekly performance in four years. The sell-off took the Dow Jones down more than 10% from its peak valuations, thereby constituting the first official correction in four years. One third of all S&P 500 companies are already in bear market territory, having declined more than 20% from their peaks. Scarier still, the selling intensified as the week drew to a close, with the Dow losing 530 points on Friday, after falling 350 points on Thursday. The new week is even worse, with the Dow dropping almost 1,100 points near the open today before cutting its losses significantly. However, no one should expect that this selling is over. The correction may soon morph into a full-fledged bear market if the Fed makes good on its supposed intentions to raise interest rates this year. Have no illusions, while most market observers are quick to blame the sell-off on China, this market was given life by the Fed, and the Fed is the only force that will keep it alive.

Stock Market Black Monday Crash Fizzles Out, Next Black Tuesday? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: Nadeem_Walayat
The Stock Market Black Monday Panic CRASH that the mainstream press and BlogosFear has been focused since Friday's 3% plunge never materialised. A 3.5% closing drop whilst not good for those long the market, nevertheless is NOT a CRASH. Of course the latest drop of 3.5% comes on the back of a 10.3% retracement from the Dow's RECENT all time high which puts the Dow now down nearly 14%.

Black Monday - Rolling A Wheelbarrow Of Dynamite Into A Crowd Of Fire Jugglers / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015
By: James_Quinn
John Hussman has the right to gloat on this Black Monday morning as global stock markets meltdown under the weight of central bank created debt, insane debt financed corporate buybacks, and stock valuations rivaling 1929 and 2000 levels. He has been scorned, ridiculed and laughed at by the Ivy League educated sociopathic Wall Street titans of greed and avarice. Only in a warped, manipulated, corrupt, rigged financial world would those who speak the truth, use facts, and honestly assess the markets based on historical relationships would a man like John Hussman be abused by the elitist Wall Street lemmings. He has too much integrity and class to lower himself to the level of Wall Street hucksters. His letter this week is heavy on substance, facts, and sound reasoning. Therefore, it is of no use to CNBC cheerleaders or Wall Street shysters. His lessons are timeless.

Playing the Chinese Trump Card / Stock-Markets / China Economy
By: John_Mauldin
“I know the Chinese. I’ve made a lot of money with the Chinese. I understand the Chinese mind.”
Back in the olden days (pre-2000 or so), information junkies like me relied on printed newspapers, paper magazines, TV newscasts, and snail-mail newsletters. All these channels still exist, but they can’t begin to compete with the constant stream of data rushing into our tablets and smartphones. And on some days the stream rushes faster.
