Beginning of the end for the EURO Project / Currencies / Euro
By: Enda_Glynn
Fundamental analysts are all scratching their heads these days!
How can USDJPY be declining rapidly,
All the while EURUSD and GBPUSD are accelerating lower also.
So the USD is both weakening and strengthening at the same time!!
This does not compute in fundamental analysis.
However,
It is perfectly acceptable, and even predictable, with Elliott wave analysis!
And the reason is simple;
The USD is correcting lower against the YEN,
While;
The EURO and Cable are both declining against the USD in a trend move.

Outlook Shifting in Predictable Ways for Bitcoin / Currencies / Bitcoin
By: Mike_McAra
As Bitcoin is going down, we’re seeing more and more information on how the currency is in a precarious position or how the prospects of the currency is bleak. But what interests traders the most is if the recent developments have changed anything in the current outlook. And we provide you with our answer to this question. One our readers have known for some time now.
The media seem to have noticed that Bitcoin has depreciated. More Bitcoin-oriented outlets might even focus on market-specific events such as technical developments. In an article on CoinDesk, we read:
Bitcoin risks closing below the 50-week moving average (MA) – an important long-term support not breached for over two-and-a-half years.

By: Arkadiusz_Sieron
Almost 5500 miles ( 8,800 kilometers ) . That’s the distance between Pyongyang and Rome. It seems a lot, right? But not for gold, the truly global monetary asset. In recent days, the price of the yellow metal has immediately reacted to the developments around both North Korea and Italy. What has happened?

Did the Crypto Market Just Bottom? / Currencies / BlockChain
By: Ryan_Wilday
In my recent article, "Time for a Crypto Lunar Rocket Launch?" I stated that we have been tracking bullish 5-wave patterns off the April lows, and viewed most cryptocurrencies in wave-2 corrections or about to complete the impulse and enter wave 2s. However, some disparate coins are currently in B waves or wave iv corrections.
I also stated that some of the corrective fractals that we were beginning to see were shallow, particularly that in Ethereum. Meanwhile, I said that corrective waves are notorious for twists and turns, and for changing the views of traders and analysts alike. So, I always ground myself in a zoomed-out point of view.

Prepared For The Next Leg In The US Stock Markets? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2018
By: Dan_Steinbock
Ever since the deep price rotation in late January/early February 2018, many analysts have attempted to pinpoint the next moves in the markets. We recall reading the “doom and gloom” reports telling traders this is the big one and to prepare for a much lower price breakdown. We also read a few research posts that aligned with our adaptive predictive modeling systems suggesting this move would expand into extended bottoming rotation. We want to point out a few components of this move that most analysts are missing.
As we continue through this article, we want to highlight the similarities of this recent price rotation to the price rotation that took place in 2015/2016 and how prices advanced in staged “legging” patterns that allowed a great opportunity for traders and investors.

By: Dan_Steinbock
According to the 2018 IMD World Competitiveness report, Philippines ranking plunged nine notches.

How Do You Make Money on the Stock Market With A Broken Clock? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2018
By: Avi_Gilburt
For those that are familiar with American football, you would likely understand the strategy that the team that controls the clock usually controls the game.
But, what happens if the clock is broken and the game just keeps going and going and going? Well, it is no different than when an analyst makes a claim that the stock market is going to crash, and makes this claim week after week after week, and does this for months or even years on end. Since there is no time limit to the game, eventually, this analyst can “win” the game.

A Recession Indicator for Independent Thinkers / Economics / Recession
By: F_F_Wiley
Last month we took sides in the ongoing debate about the Great Yield Curve Scare—we argued that the curve hasn’t flattened enough to deliver a strong recession signal at this point in time. We showed that the recent flattening is similar to those that occurred at various stages of the last nine business-cycle expansions, but usually before the midpoints. In other words, history places today’s curve in an early- or mid-cycle position, not late-cycle as commonly believed. We concluded that the recent flattening isn’t all that interesting as far as the business cycle is concerned.

Economy Still Too Strong to Induce Stocks Bear Market Recession / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2018
By: Troy_Bombardia
The adage “the stock market is not the economy” is true on a day to day and week to week basis. But it isn’t true in the medium-long term. The stock market and the economy move in the same direction over the long term. This means that you can predict the future of the stock market by predicting the future of the economy (fundamentals).
The adage “the stock market leads the economy” is true, but only when you look at the “economy” through the lens of GDP. These charts show that the stock market topped before a recession started in the 4 historical bear markets since 1950.

How Trump’s Ditching of Iran Nuclear Deal Affirms American Unipolarity with Obama’s help / Politics / US Politics
By: Dan_Steinbock
The Trump White House plans to break the Iran deal by sanctioning companies from Europe and Asia doing business in and with Iran. Ironically, President Obama paved the way to unilateral sanctions.For three years, the comprehensive nuclear accord (JCPOA) has offered Iran relief from US, UN and multilateral sanctions on energy, financial, shipping, automotive and other sectors. But recently that era came to a halt. “The United States will withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal,” President Trump said on May 8.

Blackstone, BlackRock or a Public Bank for California’s Money? / Politics / US Politics
By: Ellen_Brown
California needs over $700 billion in infrastructure during the next decade. Where will this money come from? The $1.5 trillion infrastructure initiative unveiled by President Trump in February includes only $200 billion in federal funding, and less than that after factoring in the billions in tax cuts in infrastructure-related projects. The rest is to come from cities, states, private investors and public-private partnerships (PPPs). And because city and state coffers are depleted, that chiefly means private investors and PPPs, which have a shady history at best.
