Stock Markets At Ideal Consolidation Point / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: David_Grandey
What we really want to key in on here is that of the 60 minute index charts that have served us so well over the past few years.
One look at the S&P 500 and you see the 78.6% Fibonacci level we talked about over the weekend. Yesterday we tagged it and immediately got a downside reaction off of it.

Stock Market Rally Getting Ridiculous, Gold Potential Double Top / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
Elevated unemployment is here to stay. - (Bloomberg) The U.S. economy will slow more than previously estimated through next year as elevated unemployment tempers consumer spending and companies trim investment plans, economists surveyed by Bloomberg News said.
Economists’ dimmer outlook is at odds with that of Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke, who said conditions are in place for a pickup in growth next year. Survey participants also pushed back the timing of the Fed’s first rate increase to the fourth quarter of 2011 from the prior three months.

Behold! A New Stock Market Chart Pattern to Consider / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Barry_M_Ferguson
To those of us who consider ourselves 'technical analysts', we are always perusing charts for known patterns to help forecast trend lines. Our world is limited to a relatively few established patterns that have been studied for centuries. However, we must all understand that economies change, markets change, and primary market influences change. It follows that technical patterns should also change and expand.

The favorite forecasting tool of economists and investors is to extend whatever are the current conditions and recent trends in a straight line into the future. I was reminded of that by an article in this week’s Bloomberg Businessweek magazine, which began with the following;

Surmounting the Gold Confiscation or Financial Collapse Scenario / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010

“It is absurd that the United States has a central bank that is more accountable to the financial industry than it is to the public.”“The Rally against Obamacare for the Banks” Dean Baker, The Guardian, 9/23/09Read full article... Read full article...
“…Only liquidation of the biggest banks can enable a recovery, period!! Of course, the process is complicated, especially politically. Actually, it is more than political, since the big banks control the USGovt. The response reaction from gold & silver will give loud messages to systemic failure, as money is wasted, invested in failure, and directed to the elite troughs…

By: Money_Morning

Five Ways to Profit From the World's Safest Economy / Stock-Markets / Canadian Stock Market
By: Money_Morning
Martin Hutchinson writes:
I've said it once, and I'll doubtless say it a few dozen more times before the U.S. economy returns to health: Just because you have to endure recessionary conditions doesn't mean that your money has to.
That's the argument I make when I urge Americans to search for investments outside U.S. borders. Ironically, your money doesn't have to travel all that far: What's arguably the world's "safest economy" is actually located just north of the border.

Stock Market Choppy, Corrective Session / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Harry_Boxer
The stock market indices had a very choppy session. They gapped up strongly at the opening, but that was it right there at the highs in the first couple minutes. They pulled back in an orderly fashion, tried to come back on, but when they couldn't get through the highs they rolled over with the sharpest sell-off by mid-day and early afternoon. That stabilized their support and contributed to a snapback rally, which took back about 50%-60% of its losses. However, in the last 15 minutes they rolled over rather hard and pared back the gains somewhat further.

A Few Reasons to Doubt the September Stock Market Rally / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Sy_Harding
After being down for three straight weeks, the market was up for four straight days last week, was down 107 points on Tuesday of this week, but then bounced back 46 points yesterday. So it’s now been up five of the last six days.
The catalyst for the rally has been a few economic reports that were a bit better than Wall Street’s forecasts, mixed in with other reports indicating that economic growth, which slowed to just 1.6% in the second quarter, is slowing further in the 3rd quarter.

Stock Markets Cheered by Fall in US Weekly Jobless Claims / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: PaddyPowerTrader
US markets, albeit on very low volumes, moved higher upon hump day as sentiment was boosted by a successful Portugal debt auction and talk surrounding further fiscal stimulus measures from the Whitehouse. The premium that investors demand to hold Portuguese 10-year government bonds instead of benchmark German bunds fell to 3.59 percent post the auction, after widening to as much as 3.72 percent earlier, while speculation mounted that Obama will announce an additional $180bn package.

Brazil, Dump this Market Now! / Stock-Markets / Brazil
By: Money_Morning
Martin Hutchinson writes:
Batten down the hatches. Brazil, the media-darling of the world financial press and the poster child for emerging-markets investing, is heading directly into the eye of the storm.
Until now, Brazil has provided investors with a thoroughly rewarding run. Investors who followed Money Morning's October 2008 call to buy the iShares MSCI Brazil Index (NYSE: EWZ) have notched a 160% return.

Gold, Silver and Stock Indices Form a Triple Top, What’s Next? / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Chris_Vermeulen
I am going to step out on a limb in this report and cover what I think to be an intermediate top in the precious metals sector. Everyone I speak with and from the hundreds of emails I get I would say the vast majority are bullish on gold and silver. That being said, I feel we are 3-8 days away from a pop and drop in the price of gold.

Stock Market Rally Continues on Good Technicals / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Harry_Boxer
The stock market indices had another up day as the rally continued. Starting out with a gap up, they ran sharply higher until mid-morning when they paused. At that point they resumed the advance, reaching the session highs just before noon. They then sold off early afternoon, bounced back sharply to retest the highs, but fell short and then rolled over in the last hour.
Net on the day, however, they closed positive, with the Dow up 46.32 at 10,387.01, about 40 points off its high. The S&P 500 was up 7.03 at 1098.87, about 5 points off its high. The Nasdaq 100 gained 23.50 to 1880, with a high of over 1887.
