Stock Gold, Dollar, Bond Markets Warning & Profit Opportunities Alert! / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: DeepCaster_LLC
“…reporting of contained CPI inflation by the U.S. government should be relatively short-lived, as global financial market concerns eventually shift from systemic solvency issues in Europe to those in the United States. Concerns for U.S. stability eventually should dominate most other market issues…

The Federal Reserve Does NOT Control the Financial Markets / Stock-Markets / Central Banks
By: EWI
FREE eBook reveals why the Fed is powerless to change the economic course
As the world's leading stock markets continue to play stomach-hockey with investors via one triple-digit turn after another, the mainstream community takes solace in this core belief: No matter how uncertain things become, the Federal Reserve can at any moment swoop in to set the economy right.

Surge in Strategic Defaults Threatens U.S. Housing Market Recovery / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Money_Morning
Don Miller writes: A growing number of homeowners who owe more on their mortgages than their property is worth are opting for "strategic default," which means walking away from their homes, even though they can afford to make their monthly payment.
If the trend accelerates, it could put more empty houses on a market that's already overburdened with vacancies and snuff out any recovery in the moribund housing market.

Stock Market Brief / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Christopher_Quigley
Due to lower highs and lower lows on both the Dow Industrials and Dow Transports there is
now a change of trend in existence in the markets. How low this correction will continue no
one can be sure. A bounce can be expected at any time due to the fact that the market is
terribly oversold based on Stochastics and the McClennan Summation Index.

Politicians Battle Against Markets, The Sovereign Policies of Insolvency / Stock-Markets / Global Debt Crisis
By: Ty_Andros
The greatest transfer of wealth from those who hold it in paper to those who don’t is underway; a Crack-up Boom looms.
It’s time to put on your battle gear and man your stations as the “when hope turns to fear” (see 2010 outlook in Tedbits archives) moment has arrived. As the G7 financial systems lurch towards their demise, insanity is on plain display in the capitals of the developed world, with the purchasing power of all G7 currencies (Pounds, Swiss Francs, Euros and Dollars of all stripes) in free fall -- as measured in the only REAL currencies in the world: GOLD and SILVER. &

Stock Market Historic Setback! / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Harry_Boxer
The stock market indices suffered a historic setback today in terms of the technicals, and in terms of points it was quite nasty as well. There was a huge gap down at the opening, followed by a short consolidation, which was followed by more selling. It did bounce in the morning, but then made lower lows and reached the session lows on the Nasdaq 100 during the lunch hour. At that point they had a strong 3-wave rally back, but failed at secondary resistance at 1840 on the NDX and 1095 on the S&P 500.

Stock Market Collapse....200's Gone... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Jack_Steiman
For now, all we can do is judge the market by the message it sends. The message it sent today was bearish. No other way to say it. No other way to spin it. A plethora of sectors and stocks were in nasty bear markets before today, but after today we can add the S&P 500 to that list with the reality that the Dow and Nasdaq are close. Both are now under their 200-day exponential moving average, but only by 1%, while the S&P 500 is below by 3%, which is far more confirming. The WLSH 5000 also fell below the 200-day exponential moving average today and this has, like it says, 5000 stocks, thus it's very broad based.

Economic Unraveling Has Started, Dow Theory Stock Market Sell Signal / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Brian_Bloom
I’m not sure where this will all end, but today we saw a Dow Theory sell signal.
If you look closely at the chart below (courtesy Bigcharts.com) you will see that volumes have been creeping up since the 1000 point fall the week before last. When prices fall on rising volume that is evidence of selling pressure

Stock Market Thursday Thump, Economic Depression Sets In / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: PhilStockWorld
What a difference a title makes!
Yesterday, I titled my morning post "WTF Wednesday?" and I had, at 5:36 am, already sent out a major Alert (rare thing to do) in which we discussed Raoul Pal’s statement that a major crash is coming in 2 days to 2 weeks, to which I said: "I think it’s insane not to be mainly in cash right now and hedged for at least a 40% drop. If the guy’s wrong - our buy/writes pay "just" 20% and if he’s right, then we get to DD at good prices with the profits from our Disaster Hedges!" As I’m not one to ignore a great opportunity to profit from catastrophe, we added 3 more hedges that pay 1,000% if the market does tank in the next few weeks, or days (using DIA, FAZ and TZA).

Will the S&P Test "Flash Crash" Low? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Yesterday, when I wrote about my perceptions of what would create "crash-event" (panic) conditions in the emini S&P 500 (e-SPM) -- a sustained break of 1056, followed by a breach of 1036 -- the e-SPM was trading at 1108. Already today, the e-SPM has pressed beneath my "orthodox low" at 1090.75 from 5/07 to a new reaction low at 1074.50, off of the April high 1216.75 (-11.7%). We can see from the enclosed daily chart that 1074.50 does not represent any particular technical significance (support) other than the fact that if the index did not continue to the downside from there then perhaps a condition of near-term bearish exhaustion has set in.

What Does Germany’s Short Selling Credit-Default-Swap Ban Mean for You? / Stock-Markets / Government Intervention
By: Money_Morning
Keith Fitz-Gerald writes: Germany did something on Tuesday that I've been hoping would happen for three years: It outlawed naked short-selling and speculation on European government bonds with naked credit default swaps.
The financial institutions that have been profiting from this type of speculation immediately went on the offensive.

Stock, Commodity and Financials Trading, The Quick And The Dead / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Bob_Clark
The Fat Boys are stop killers. You must learn the ways of the Fat Boys.
This sudden plunge in the market has been a wake up call to investors. Complacency is dangerous. It re-enforces bad habits and can lead to not questioning how we think and who we listen to. The price of (financial) freedom is eternal vigilance.

Stock Market Negative Session Takes Out Short-term Support / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Harry_Boxer
The stock market indices opened positive but then immediately sold off sharply in a 3-wave decline that reached the session lows just before noon at about 1851 on the Nasdaq 100 and about 1100 on the S&P 500. They rallied backed steadily over the next couple hours to reach their snapback highs right above minor resistance, and then sold off, but with about 40 minutes to go snapped back again and managed to take back more losses, but still ended negative on the session in what looked liked bear-flag consolidation intraday.

China Stock Market SSEC Index Completing Correction? / Stock-Markets / Chinese Stock Market
By: David_Banister
The recent Shanghai Surprise has been breaking that potential bullish triangle I outlined several weeks ago with a downside break of 2900. Subscribers to TheMarketTrendForecast.Com may recall that was my line in the sand for the SSEC index to remain bullish. With the break of that possible bull triangle, the SSEC index has fallen down to near 2500. Everyone on CNBC is bearish on the Chinese Indexes now, and I can’t find any bulls for that country either. They were everywhere several months ago, and now, nowhere to be found.

As the saying goes, a picture speaks a thousand words and the charts below quite clearly illustrates that the Dow has not put in a single new high in the past 3 years.

Stock Market WTF Wednesday? Bangkok Burns, Blankfein Moves Up / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: PhilStockWorld
On May 6th I warned that revolution was in the air. Today Thailand’s Stock Exchange has been put to flames by protestors along with the malls they can no longer afford to shop in and the television stations that lie to them and tell them how great everything is while their lifestyles go down the toilet. Like any good colony of cockroaches, Thai traders had already scurried off to do their trading elsewhere - in a secret location away from the lights and they took their market UP 0.7%, betting that this out-of-hand violence will now be met with an equally violent government response that will end all this silliness and let them get back to skimming their profits off the people on a daily basis.Read full article...
