Stocks, Bonds, Gold, Silver and Forex Market Forecasts 2010 / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: HRA_Advisory
A year ago we said we believed a full court press by G10 central bankers, finance ministers and governments would succeed in at least halting the slide. It did, and markets responded more strongly than even we had hoped for, and we were among the more optimistic observers 12 months ago.
We also said a year ago that you were unlikely to see a repeat of 2008. It’s safe to say the same comment applies again. 2010 will not look like 2009.

Financial Market Bubble Dynamics In 2010 / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Captain_Hook
If asked the question, most ‘financial experts’ would likely tell you the possibility of a return to extreme bubble dynamics in stocks during 2010 is the most unlikely possibility, not after all the ones during the last decade. Besides the possibility of deflation Prechter and the likes sell to a public that sees the risks, which are in fact very real, because this is widely known and being countered by central authorities, a risk of opposites must also be considered – or so the charts tell us. That is to say, not only because of the true state of inflation, but also because of the mechanisms influencing and controlling the direction of our faulty and fraudulent markets, which will be discussed in further detail below, you should know the chances of returning to a state of extreme bubble dynamics in stocks does in fact exist moving forward, this, and all that goes along with it.

Financial Market Meltdowns, Inflation, Protecting Capital and Trading Commodities / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Chris_Vermeulen
The purpose in owning commodities like gold, silver and oil is to protect oneself from the effect of inflation that I believe will begin to assert itself in the coming months.
Unfortunately, the United States has taken a monetary policy of printing massive amounts of money to attempt an escape of deflation. In just the past 16 months, the monetary base has ballooned from $908 billion to $2.0 trillion. Bailout funds in the past 2 years total $8.1 trillion..... That is 78 times more than what they spent to bail out WorldCom...... and 123 times more than they spent on Enron. U.S. debt has risen sharply, from $6.2 trillion in 2002 to $12.1 trillion today. These are scary numbers!

Stocks Bull Market New 2010 High, Weeks Featured Analysis / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Nadeem_Walayat
Britain is again on the brink of economic and social collapse as the country faces its greatest crisis. well since last year, the new crisis is the Salt Crisis! As the country runs out of salt to grit the roads, with government ministers in a state of panic sending their dominions out into the lands supermarkets to buy up stock. The Royal Navy on the high sea's has been sent instructions to intercept salt shipments to other European countries with the army also being placed on high alert as mobs mass outside supermarkets attempting to get hold of the last few packets of salt. Okay so a slight exaggeration but it must be amusing to the peoples of north eastern europe of how a few snow flakes can bring Britain to a shuddering halt in a matter of days.

Stock Market Indices Shrug Off Payrolls and Push to New Highs / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Prieur_du_Plessis
Back from the festive season break, traders pushed stock market indices to new highs for the rally, logging a full house of five up-days for the S&P 500 Index and pushing the CBOE Volatility (VIX) Index - also referred to as the “fear gauge” of the US stock markets - down to levels last seen pre-Lehman in 2008.
Pundits shrugged off Friday’s unexpected decline in non-farm payrolls, as well as mixed economic data earlier in the week, focusing instead on the Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC) communiqué for its December 15-16 meeting which maintained its “extended period” stance for easy monetary policy, i.e. more “juice” for risky assets.

By: Anthony_Cherniawski

Payrolls decreased last month after a November gain of 4,000, figures from the Labor Department showed today in Washington. The median estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News projected no change in December employment. The jobless rate held at 10 percent.

Stock and Commodity Investors Profiting in "the whipsaw year" 2010 / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: DeepCaster_LLC
“The U.S. Economy faces a “significant chance” of contracting again after emerging from its worst recession since the 1930s, Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz said.
“It’s not clear that the U.S. is recovering in a sustainable way,” Stiglitz, a Columbia University professor, told reporters in New York…He said the crisis of the past year was made worse by lax regulation that allowed some financial firms to grow so large that the system couldn’t handle a failure of any of them.”

Bernanke, the Wonderful Wizard of USD, Forecasts 2010 / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Brady_Willett
The same day President Richard Nixon closed the "gold window” Ron Paul entered politics. Dr. Paul has been fighting to end the Federal Reserve ever since - he has been supporting a bill to audit the Fed since 1976. In 2009 Congressman Ron Paul’s bill to audit the Fed was included in the Wall Street reform bill and passed by the House. Only the Senate* stands in front of Congressman Paul’s heroic battle to audit the secretive act of the central bank wizards.

2010 Gathering Giant Economic and Financial Storm Clouds / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Jim_Willie_CB
The year 2008 bore my mark as the year the system broke. A public article addressed the issues, laid out before the breakdown occurred in September of that year. The consequences for the many failures, the desperate nationalizations, the hasty scrambles to put financial sewage under USGovt ownership, the realization of TARP as a vast slush fund for illegitimate bank rescues, the official monetization plans put forth to prevent bond implosions, and much more occurred in the year 2009 as a recognized aftermath. Here we are in 2010 and the threats must again be laid out.

Billionaire Predictions for 2010 / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Andrew_Abraham
There was an interesting article online of Forbes discussing Billionaire predictions that I glanced through this morning. My immediate thought was..Do these Billionaires know something that we don’t? They know better than us? What I expected was they had a variance of opinions as we all do…as well as they are optimistic.. Really they are no different than us mortals…Maybe they were at the right time at the right place… worked extremely hard to earn their status as a billionaire… but they are no soothsayer…

New Year ETF Trading for Stocks, Gold, Crude Oil and Natural Gas / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Chris_Vermeulen
Welcome back everyone! It’s time to buckle up and get ready for another exciting year of trading.
When the market is moving on light volume I tend to focus on very short term plays to minimize my exposure to volatility. The past couple of weeks have been great for day traders and futures trades as we took advantage of the short term seasonal holiday rally in the broad market and also by shorting gold when bounces reached resistance levels.

Financial Markets Outlook 2010, Wealth Protection and Investment Insurance in Unstable Times / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Elite_E_Services
We are not providing the solution, we are asking the question, how to protect wealth in uncertain times? The financial crisis has changed the lives of millions. One of them, Glen Pizzolorusso, used to be a subprime mortgage broker making more than $100,000 a month:
For Pizzolorusso, the story started when he was just 14 and working in his father's mortgage firm. Making a habit of 60-hour weeks, he found his way up from his father's company to a position as head of a subprime mortgage sales team. He was bringing home more than $100,000 a month, choosing each day which of his five cars to drive, shuttling between two luxury homes, partying in expensive New York City nightclubs.
