By: Andre_Gratian
Current Position of the Market
Very Long-term trend - Down! The very-long-term cycles are down and if they make their lows when expected, the bear market which started in October 2007 should continue until 2014.
SPX: Long-term trend - Up! We are in a medium-term bull market, which is a corrective move within a long term bear market. This bull market should last until 2011

Silver Continues to Underperform, Failing to Clear Strong Resistance / Stock-Markets / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Clive_Maund
You have to feel a little sorry for silver. It has been suffering from an identity crisis - it can't make up its mind whether it's an industrial metal or a Precious Metal. You could see this on Thursday when as gold surged and the stockmarket tanked, it hardly moved. It was like a bewildered child at a country crossroads not knowing whether to follow its big brother gold and take the high road, or to follow the man with the candy and take the low road.

Did Bankster's Crash the Stock Market to Send a Message to Congress? / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Mac_Slavo
In Conspiracy Fact or Theory news we ask our readers to consider the possibility that the 1000 point crash and subsequent recovery within a 30 minute time period was not a “fat finger” mistake, but rather, a clear message to our lawmakers that someone else, and not the American people, is in charge of America. This was a $1 trillion dollar move in stock markets, do you really buy that it was an accident as reported by the mainstream?

Don't Blink Or You Will Miss The Stock Market Crash! / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Nadeem_Walayat
The Dow Crashed on Thursday
The bottom line is that NO ONE SAW THURSDAYS CRASH Coming - NO ONE! Because it is Impossible to Forecast Stock Market Crashes as I have iterated several times over the years and in the Inflation Mega-trend Ebook. Anyone that says they saw it coming are giving you a load of B.S.

Fed Fraud and Stock Market Crash Bamboozles Investors / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Steve_Betts
"One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We're no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It is simply too painful to acknowledge -- even to ourselves -- that we've been so credulous." --- Carl Sagan
That’s exactly what has happened, the United States government in cahoots with the Federal Reserve and a number of the world’s central banks, conspired to defraud the vast majority of human beings out of their wealth. The fraud began back in 1913 with the creation of the IRS and Federal Reserve, and for decades was confined to the US.

The Stock Market Trend is Broken / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Peter_Navarro
In my last newsletter several weeks ago, I noted a continued bullish trend. However, I also said that:
“Despite the market's bullish trend, I continue to be cashed out of most of the stock market and have shifted a significant chunk of my assets into a new piece of real estate.”

Goldman Sachs Rigged Stock Market Crash / Stock-Markets / Market Manipulation
By: Ellen_Brown
Last week, Goldman Sachs was on the congressional hot seat, grilled for fraud in its sale of complicated financial products called “synthetic CDOs.” This week the heat was off, as all eyes turned to the attack of the shorts on Greek sovereign debt and the dire threat of a sovereign Greek default. By Thursday, Goldman’s fraud had slipped from the headlines and Congress had been cowed into throwing in the towel on its campaign to break up the too-big-to-fail banks. On Friday, Goldman was in settlement talks with the SEC.

Stock Market Rational Panic - Where Are We? / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: Adam_Brochert
Honestly, it may actually be time for Prechter to be mostly right. I love the guy and his rational arguments. I just hate that he doesn't accept Gold as real money that will be sought as a safe haven more than the U.S. Dollar. If you take his arguments for Armageddon in the stock market and price the stock market in Gold, the guy's already been right for a decade! For some reason, the cognitive dissonance he should be feeling with Gold isn't enough yet for him to recognize and let everyone know he made a mistake about Gold. Gold is a safer haven currency than the U.S. Dollar because it is real money and doesn't require a debt backing or faith in governments to do the right thing (which, of course, they won't).

Stock Market Investor Sentiment: The Great Unwind / Stock-Markets / Stock Market Sentiment
By: Guy_Lerner
When you look at investor sentiment for the past week, you must understand that the majority of data was collected and disseminated prior to Thursday's downdraft. While the data may seem stale and not reflective of the end of week events, it should be appreciated how many investors were wrong on this market. We weren't just seeing excessive bullish sentiment prior to this week, we were seeing extreme and excessive bullish sentiment. For example, in the Investors Intelligence data, there were 3 times as many bulls as bears, a reading last seen in December, 2009 and October, 2007.

Gerald Celente on the Stock Market Crash of 2010 / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Submissions
The Dow Jones industrial market is down and looks to continue to head that direction. This is not good news for the worlds economies that are trying to bounce back after this recession hit many different nations. Is this a direct reflection of the Greece financial crisis?

Linking Valuation Standards, Basel II, Basil Fawlty, Moody’s, Hitler, & Goldman Sachs / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2010
By: Andrew_Butter
Bill Gross had a go at the rating agencies this week, as always he has a lot of sensible things to say.
The point he didn’t make clearly (he did make it, but it was easy to get distracted by the discussion of working ladies of the night and six-inch heels…(where does he get his information?)), was that rating agencies have a monopoly franchise to “protect” the world financial system.

Indian Stock Market Detailed Technical Analysis with Chart studies / Stock-Markets / India
By: StocksBuddy
As we have been stating repeatedly in our previous analysis, this week we were expecting negative divergence to kick in, and it clearly did. Nifty failed every move to cross the middle line of the BB channel as can be seen from the chart below. Nifty just followed the wrath of global markets to the downside with no pause at all.

Stocks Tumble Again and U.S. Treasury Bonds Spike on Panic Buying / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
Nonfarm payroll employment rose by 290,000 in April, the unemployment rate edged up to 9.9 percent, and the labor force increased sharply, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Job gains occurred in manufacturing, professional and business services, health care, and leisure and hospitality. Federal government employment also rose, reflecting continued hiring of temporary workers for Census 2010.

Stock Market Crash What is Going On? / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Robert_McHugh_PhD
Where do I even begin. Thursday, May 6th, saw the single largest daily decline in the history of the U.S. Stock Market. But, even more amazing is that most of it occurred in a matter of 10 minutes, between 2:40 and 2:50 pm EST. During that ten minute period, the Industrials fell approximately 600 points. It was a scary drop, an all-out panic attack, a stock market crash free-fall where bids were absent, and selling pressure was powerful. At the bottom, the Industrials had fallen 1,010 points Thursday. Then deep pockets intervention appeared and bought markets hard, stopping the dive, and driving prices higher.

Did the Stock Market Fall or Was it Pushed? WSJ Baffled by Market Drop / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Danny_Schechter
The Wall Street Journal headline on the day after we almost lost the market reported that the wise men on the Street were “baffled” by the big drop Thursday. The Financial Times called the event “Shambolic” as if only a shaman can decode it.
A week after CNBC assured its high net worth viewers that Greece would no longer be a problem, there was an uprising there followed by a volcanic market cliff dive that the White House, NASDQ and every regulator is now investigating.

Debt Crisis Hit Stock Market Turmoil Continues Benefiting Gold / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2010
By: Andy_Sutton
The obvious pick for a topic this week would be yesterday’s fearful plunge in US Markets. However, absent a well-defined culprit for the plunge (so far), it seems pointless to speculate on what really happened. I am still sifting through my own observations of that ten-minute span as well as those sent to me by subscribers. There are reports of index ETFs with near zero volume and unfilled orders at the market.

Intermediate-term Weakness Ahead for Germany Index EWG ETF / Stock-Markets / European Stock Markets
By: Mike_Paulenoff
While everyone is fixed on Greece (for good reason), why don’t we look at the pattern developing in the German equity market, just to keep an eye on the country within the EU that is on the hook for the lion’s share of money to be loaned to the PIIGS. After all shouldn’t the health of the creditor nation’s equity index be telling?

Stock Market Investors Keep a Close Eye on VIX Investor Fear / Stock-Markets / Volatility
By: Dr_Jeff_Lewis
Historically, the “fear index,” or the VIX, had minimal impact on the price of precious metals. However, as investors forgo treasury bonds in search of even safer investments, the VIX is correlating very well with the price of precious metals.
