Stock Market Crash Potential - Video / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash

By: Gary_Savage

I strongly advise not trying to pick a bottom in the stock market right now. The market is trying to move down into the 7 year cycle low. There is risk this could evolve into an 87 style crash event. Don’t try to be a hero and risk getting caught in that if it were to happen.

China Stock Market Crash Terrorises Global Stock Markets / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Nadeem_Walayat

The Chinese stock market already weak going into the end of 2015 started 2016 off with a BANG, literally crashing on a near daily basis by hitting the 7% circuit breaker daily limit moves prompting a closure of the market, only to resume to the free fall the following morning as investors panic sold on the open attempting to sell before the circuit breaker kicks in, resulting in a market that has locked out most retail participants as they watch their stock portfolio valuations evaporate. This daily 7% limit down crashes prompted the Chinese authorities Thursday to suspend the circuit breaker which should have the effect of alleviating the panic selling going forward.

Bill Gross Warns China Stocks Will Drop Another 5-6% Friday / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Bloomberg

Bill Gross of Janus Capital spoke with Bloomberg's Tom Keene about the state of the global economy.

Gross said China's stock markets are likely to drop 5-6% on Friday: "Based upon the ETF in the United States, China is predicted to be down 5 percent or 6 percent…But China is an artificial market. All global markets are artificially based. And to the extent that we have a catharsis, I think, depends upon central banks basically giving up in terms of what they do. I don't think that's going to happen."

Stock Market Major 5-year Trendline Crossed / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Anthony_Cherniawski

It appears that SPX has violated its (nearly) 5-year trendline that appears to be in the mid 1950’s.

I normally would not be watching this since the more technically correct trendline was violated in August. However, there are multiple analysts who have been using this as a “line in the sand.”

Stock Market Perfect Storm! / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: John_Rubino

One of the (many) fascinating things about this latest global financial crisis is that there’s no single catalyst. Unlike 2008 when the carnage could be traced back to US subprime housing, or 2000 when tech stocks crashed and pulled down everything else, this time around a whole bunch of seemingly-unrelated things are unraveling all at once.

Stock Market Inflection Point, Breakouts, Gold, Commodities / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Rambus_Chartology

Today felt like an inflection point in gold and the INDU with both breaking important trendlines. As there is alot of ground to cover tonight lets get right to the charts starting with the daily look at the INDU. Today the INDU finally closed below the bottom rail of the now seven point bearish falling flag and the double bottom trendline at 16,920. This was a big deal IMHO. We may see a little backing and filling in this general area but today's move clearly setup a pattern of lower highs and lower lows. Note the six point bearish falling wedge that formed back in July of last year. As it formed below the previous high it needed an even number of reversal points to complete the pattern to the downside. Because our current seven point bearish falling flag formed at the top it needed to have an odd number of reversal points to make a reversal pattern. One last point on the chart below which shows two red arrows one point up and the other pointing down. As you can see the rally out of the low made in October was vertical only taking three days. The red arrow pointing down shows how it's possible we may see the INDU reverse symmetry back down over the same area as shown by the red arrow pointing up.

China, Oil and Markets: It’s All One Story / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2016

By: Raul_I_Meijer

If there’s one thing to take away from this year’s developments in markets and economies so far, it’s that they are all linked, they’re all part of the same thing. If you can’t see that, you’re not going to understand what’s happening.

Looking at falling oil prices as a separate thread is not much use, and neither is doing the same with Chinese stocks, or the yuan, or the millions of Americans who are one paycheck away from poverty, for that matter. It’s all one story.

Why are Gold Stocks Outperforming? / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2016

By: Ned_W_Schmidt

Even a cursory review of U.S. stock market indices over the past year shows sharp differences in the character of the first half of last year and the latter half. A clear discontinuity occurred in the path of that market. That a Part A and a Part B existed cannot be ignored. The fantasies and dreams of Part A were dashed in Part B. For whatever the reason, the character of markets changed.

Table that follows shows end of July 2015 values for a number of market indices and investments, the recent value for the same, and the percentage change for that period. One question comes to mind after reviewing this table. Why are the Gold stocks outperforming?

Stock Market Bend, Bend, Bend.... Break / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Dan_Norcini

The S&P 500 has been bending over the last three trading sessions ( first three trading days of this New Year) but refused to break down. Overnight however, that has changed, at least during Asian trade and very early European trade.

Notice how the index has dropped below the 2000 level twice to start the year but always managed to close back above that level. On Wednesday, the market broke down below that key 2000 level but rebounded heading into the closing bell to avoid managing to close below the spike lows in December and on Monday of this week.

Perth Mint Silver Coins Sales Surge 56%, Gold Sales Drop 16% In 2015 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2016

By: GoldCore

Perth Mint’s sales of silver coins surged 56%, while gold sales fell 16% in 2015, as silver stackers continued to accumulate silver coins and bars and the new silver nugget or kangaroo bullion coin (1 oz and 5 oz) saw very high levels of demand.

The Perth Mint’s gold sales rose in December from the prior month, but annual sales slid by nearly a fifth in 2015. Gold sales in December rose to 40,096 ounces from 31,664 ounces in November, the mint said on its website on Wednesday as reported by Reuters.

Crude Oil Price Breakdown! / Commodities / Crude Oil

By: Nadia_Simmons

Trading position (short-term; our opinion): Short positions (with a stop-loss order at $39.12 and an initial downside target at $33.66) are justified from the risk/reward perspective.

On Tuesday, crude oil lost 2.47% as a stronger greenback pushed the price lower. As a result, light crude extended losses and broke below important support line. What impact could it have on future moves?

Another China Yuan 2% Devaluation Coming Up? Explaining Chinese Capital Flight / Currencies / China Currency Yuan

By: Mike_Shedlock

Another Yuan Devaluation Coming Up?

Currency trends suggest another yuan devaluation is coming up. Specifically, the gap between the mainland China yuan (renminbi) to the US dollar, vs. the offshore floating rate of the yuan to the US dollar is now at a record high.

The reason there are two rates is China has tight controls on the range the yuan trades in China, but the yuan floats outside China.

Emerging Market Currencies Hit the Skids / Economics / Emerging Markets

By: AnyOption

Investors, equities traders and global analysts were shocked when the Shenzhen Composite Index and the Shanghai Composite Index opened to a 7% decline on Monday, 4 January 2015. That alarm bells sounded and markets were shut down is testament to the precarious predicament of Chinese equities. As the world's second largest economy, China weakness has a devastating effect on the fortunes of developing countries and developed countries alike. Such was the negative sentiment around the sharp declines in Chinese equities, mutual funds and foreign funds (with an emphasis on Asian stocks), that global bourses also moved south. The situation is being compounded by sharp declines in oil prices, with oil futures for February setting fresh new lows.

Stock Market Bears Trying....Bull-Bear Nearing Zero... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Jack_Steiman

What an interesting night we had last night. N. Korea blowing up a hydrogen bomb and causing a 5.2 earthquake. China had a terrible services number and also put a ban on selling. Government intervention to save its own hide at its best. The markets didn't take well to the news overall as one would expect. This caused a gap down in our futures below key 1993 S&P 500 support. Not to worry. As usual, the market found a way to hold off the bears. Seven years of this, so that was no surprise to anyone. It's an old story.
