Stock Market No New High? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
This Wave [B] at the 2111.05 high appears to be a 3-3-3 wave affair. It would be more acceptable to have a Wave 5 at today’s high and maybe it may happen tomorrow, changing the Wave [B] to a 3-3-5 wave pattern, which is more familiar to most analysts. However, the pattern works, as is.

On the Price of Oil / Commodities / Crude Oil
By: Steve_H_Hanke
Since its high of almost $108/bbl in June of 2014, we have witnessed a stunning collapse in the price of oil. Indeed, in February 2016, a barrel of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) was trading at $26/bbl, a 76 percent plunge from the June 2014 highs. It has since clawed its way back to $49/bbl (May 24th).Read full article... Read full article...

Race to the Bottom Gaining Traction: Negative Interest Rates Amplify Currency Wars / Interest-Rates / Currency War
By: Sol_Palha
Ability is a poor man's wealth. M. Wren
If you had told individuals before 2009 that we would be living in a negative rate environment in the near future, most would have treated you like a lunatic that just escaped from Ward 12. Fast forward a few years and viola, bankers all over the world are embracing negative rates. China devalued the Yuan once again, adding further fuel to the already blazing fire. The Fed will have no option but to lower rates and then Jump onto the negative rate bandwagon. Don’t listen to the nonsense the Fed has been mouthing for months that all is well. We can already see the all is good slogan breaking down to “it’s not as good as we thought" slogan; this will eventually change to “oh my God it’s darn right ugly out there” and we need to lower rates to prevent a catastrophe slogan.

Chart Freak writes: The Gold Bull Market
Do you think the Gold Bull Market has returned? Obviously I do, and have been trading as if the Gold Bull Market has returned. You need to be aware of this opportunity and appreciate that another big move in this Gold Bull Market is again developing. If this next move is anything like the moves seen during past Gold Bull Market’s, then you will not want to miss the next buying entry after this current correction winds down.

SPX Appears "Heavy" / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
The SPX Premarket appears heavy, but not down enough to make a difference. So we are in a sideways consolidation until a breakout or breakdown occurs. So far, the market has reacted to its Pi date on Tuesday. We may not get follow-through until tomorrow, when the monthly Jobs Report comes out.

More Stock Market Fluctuations as SP500 Index Trades Along 2,100 Mark - Which Direction is Next? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Paul_Rejczak
Briefly: In our opinion, speculative short positions are favored (with stop-loss at 2,140, and profit target at 2,000, S&P 500 index).
Our intraday outlook is bearish, and our short-term outlook is bearish. Our medium-term outlook remains bearish, as the S&P 500 index extends its lower highs, lower lows sequence:
Intraday outlook (next 24 hours): bearish
Short-term outlook (next 1-2 weeks): bearish
Medium-term outlook (next 1-3 months): bearish
Long-term outlook (next year): neutral

Stock Market Won't Sell...ISM Better But Barely...Froth Picking Up Gradually... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Jack_Steiman
We have a very interesting market environment to say the least. There doesn't seem to be a single day where the market gaps down and runs lower all day. Every day it seems the market finds a way to go higher, at least intraday. Most days it closes green. We had a move down this morning, but, as usual, it didn't hold as the bulls came roaring back.

The Bail-In: Or How You Could Lose Your Money in the Bank / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2016
By: Submissions
David Chapman writes: Buried in the Liberal Federal Budget that was introduced on March 22, 2016, under Chapter 8 - Tax Fairness and a Strong Financial Sector, was a section titled "Introducing a Bank Recapitalization 'Bail-in' Regime." Simply stated, in the unlikely event of a large bank failure, the Government proposed it would reinforce that bank shareholders and creditors are responsible for the bank's risks - not taxpayers.

A previous article called Clinton the most recklessly dangerous president aspirant in US history. Humanity’s fate is up for grabs with her finger on the nuclear trigger.

Stock Market Rough Week Ahead / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Ed_Carlson
While the eighth year of a Presidential term calls for a rally from mid-May to early/mid-June, it doesn’t promise to be straight up. This week looks set to see a correction downward against the bigger trend. The McClellan Oscillator’s dip below -150 and the lower Bollinger Band on 5/19/16 (the one-year anniversary of the top of the bull market in the Dow) marked the low of the recent sell-off. It closed above zero last week but the bears have the benefit of the doubt given the ‘complex’ structure below zero.

The chart below shows GDX’s wave count ending an (x) of B wave on June 2 near 21.81 and rallying to 25.42 by June 8th to finish (y) of B.
