Bullish Stock Market Technicals and Seasonal's / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets
By: Mike_Burk

The Financial Crisis Next Shoe to Drop / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2008
By: Marty_Chenard
To many, things are starting to look rosier. Bank liquidity flows are starting to improve ... not great, but showing some improvement.
At the same time ... Bush knows it hasn't been enough of an improvement, so he warned banks that they better start opening up the lending spigots. Banks are afraid, risk averse, and resisting. Twenty five percent of "excellent credit rating borrowers" are being declined when trying to get a new car loan. Next, I expect that Bush will push the bank Regulatory Agencies to put a lot of pressure on banks to start lending.

Stocks Bear Market Worst is Likely Behind Us / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: John_Derrick
To get some perspective on the current market conditions, it may be helpful to look at what some bear markets of the past have looked like.
Below is a chart that goes back to 1940, and you can see that what we've recently gone through was the second-worst five-day period of time over the last 68 years. It was essentially a market crash. The only other thing that's really even close was the crash of 1987.

Emerging Market ETF Soars Following U.S. Fed Loans / Stock-Markets / Emerging Markets
By: Mike_Paulenoff
The Fed's decision to "selectively" lend $30 billion (each) to Mexico, Brazil, S. Korea and Singapore to try to ensure financial stability in the emerging markets triggered a late-session pop in the iShares Emerging Markets Fund ETF (AMEX: EEM) -- notwithstanding the plunge in ALL equity indices during the final 10 minutes of trading yesterday -- which extended into this morning.Read full article...

Investors Diversify Away From the Dollar Into Cheap Value Stocks / Stock-Markets / European Stock Markets
By: John_Henry
Today's financial papers read like a history of economic turmoil. In no particular order we have warnings the bank recapitalisation will not be enough if assets continue to fall (shouldn't be a surprise), a surging yen hitting Japan (who largely avoided the bank credit issues), worries over the IMF being swamped with it's relatively small fund of $250bn, Hungary, Iceland and the Ukraine looking into the abyss, global property prices falling at ever faster rates, mass redemptions of hedge funds, $3 trillion of corporate debt needing refinancing in the next 24 months, a BOE report that is frankly as depressing as you're ever likely to read (I hope) and to cap it all worries about the confidence in government debt if any or all of the above continues.

Stock Market Bottoms Following the Mother of All Rallies / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: Harry_Boxer
It was the mother of all rallies today, as the indices exploded in the afternoon after backing and filling all day, holding support. The indices took off in mid-afternoon and rallied strongly into the close, with as strong a thrust as we've ever seen.
The Dow exploded to over 900 at one point, closing up 889 on the day. The S&P 500 ran from 860 to 940, 80 points in the last 2 hours, closing up 91 1/2.
