Burning Fiat Paper Financial Casles / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: Captain_Hook

Best Financial Markets Analysis Article‘Its only castles burning’ – A piercing lyric central to a Neal Young classic and also an appropriate sentiment with respect to the paper castles burning in the world of finance these days. Whether it’s a result of inflation or deflation – value is being lost – paper is burning – to reflect the value that never was. Our service-based economy is all an illusion you see, poised to burn like Rome at its turn, in grand scale. This what happens in fiat currency economies, where paper castles that are built on whims and flap in the wind, easily susceptible to the first spark that comes along. So, don’t let such an outcome bring you down, find something that is turning (protect you) – that being gold – and you will come around just fine.

Investment Thoughts, Stock Market Eventual Retest of March Lows / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: David_Urban

Not going to chase the market for a number of reasons, but most of all we should see a retest of the March lows sometime in the distant future, maybe a year or so.  The US banking sector is still not  healthy and has been propped up by regulatory rule changes.

State of the Economy and Markets, Bearish on Most Things Except Gold / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: Douglas_V._Gnazzo

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThere were quite a few economic reports out this week and many of them are starting to slowly turn more positive. This is good news, as a journey of 1000 miles begins one step at a time. However, much of what is reported in the media tends to have a spin put on it. I want the economy to improve as much as the next person, but I want to know if it’s for real or not, as in sustainable.

Stock Markets Best Month for 20 Years / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: NewsLetter

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDear Reader

The stock markets close July with many widely tracked indices experiencing their best performance for the month of July for more than 20 years. Many commentators are writing "where are the investors?", as few have ridden the rally, which is the whole point of a stocks stealth bull market as most investors smarting from the bear market remain paralysed by fear of the preceding bear market that either miss or in fact consistently bet against, convinced by a stream of statistics as to why this rally should imminently terminate, no matter that the so called 'bear market rally" has risen some 40% and for asian markets more than 100% since the March lows.

Investor Risk Appetite Retuns As The Stocks Bears Run Scared / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: PaddyPowerTrader

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe bear slaughter continues apace. Stocks surged Thursday, hitting their highest levels in nearly 9 months, as investors eyed the latest batch of “better-than-expected” (yawn) profits and guidance, a weaker Dollar, a decent 7 year US Treasury bond auction, a report that suggested the labor market is starting to stabilize and soothing words from China that they would refill the punch bowl.

Stock Market Holds Up Well Despite The Newsflow / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleYesterday was strange with bad news coming thick and fast, but yet again stocks proved remarkably resilient closing with only a mild red hue. Crude oil dropped below $64 barrel (after a jump in inventories) which should have pressured producers more. Investors frowned upon the terms Yahoo finally managed to extract from Microsoft.

U.S. Dollar Stabilization and the Stock / Gold Ratio / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: Ashraf_Laidi

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDollar weakness has been excessive...at least for now..

The overnight wave of dollar selling was mostly led by a fresh wave of buying in commodity currencies (rather than only rising equities) courtesy of +$70 in crude prices and hawkish comments from the Reserve Bank of Australia raising the possibility of rate hikes before a peak in the unemployment rate. Markets were already expecting the RBA to raise rates by 25 bps by year-end.

From Stocks Bear Trap to Bull Market? The US Dollar is Key / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: The_BullBear

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleA false breakdown has reversed sharply to new highs. Has a new Bull Market begun?

Since the last BBMR on May 25th, the equities markets have made a top, established a new downtrend and then threatened to break down out of a head and shoulders formation. The break was rejected with a violent upside thrust to new highs. Market action and technicals are suggestive of a renewed bull trend. Fundamentally, the economic data has generally improved and earnings have exceeded expectations in most sectors. Commodities markets, particularly the precious metals, have continued higher even as equities have stalled and the action in those markets are supportive of the reflation/inflation trade hypothesis.

Yet More Corporate Earnings Bull / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: PaddyPowerTrader

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleHaving spent the better part of two months humbled by resistance near 950, the S&P finally took the bull by the horns and went on a tear. The pressure had been building and the excuse was that 48 out of 59 major US companies reported earnings before the close ahead of expectations with Ford and 3M the star turns. But if you scratch below the surface things are not so rosy. Top-line revenues are not nearly as strong, earnings are still down nearly 25% on a year ago and Microsoft provided a soggy start to after-hours trading. Nonetheless, the top of the old range has finally been breached. Note the Nasdaq 12 day winning streak is its best run since 1992.

Dow Disappoints, Nasdaq Continues Winning Streak / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: PaddyPowerTrader

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleUnderwhelming banking results from Morgan Stanley, Keycorp and Wells Fargo and a decline in energy prices dragged down a jaded looking Dow to a modest 0.39% decline on a listless days trading. But over at the Nasdaq they made it 11 up days in a row, as it continued to bask in the warm afterglow of Apple’s stellar results on strong IPhone and Mac sales. Starbucks surprised on the upside, sending the share price into orbit (up 18%, it’s biggest 1 day gain in 11 years). EBAY also impressed investors, while the less said about Qualcomm the better.

Onward And Upward For Stock Markets / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: PaddyPowerTrader

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleEquities are still on a roll with the S&P hitting an 8 month high, rising 1.1% yesterday. Caterpillar, Disney and Alcoa led the Dow up while CIT Group soared 70% on its 11th hour (temporary) expensive reprieve from bankruptcy. Meanwhile way out West, California lawmakers and Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger said they’ve struck a deal to close a $26 billion budget deficit that’s left the most-populous U.S. state paying bills with IOUs and its credit rating near junk. In other “bullish” news the free market arm of the administration, Government, I mean Goldman, Sachs now expects the S&P 500 to rise 15% from current levels to 1,060 during 2009. The previous guess was 940.
