Stock, Commodities, Futures and Forex Markets Analysis 14th January 2009 / Stock-Markets / Futures Trading
By: INO
The March NASDAQ 100 was lower in overnight trading as it extends Monday's decline below the 20-day moving average. Stochastics and the RSI are bearish signaling that sideways to lower prices are possible near-term. If March extends this week's decline, the reaction low crossing at 1156.25 is the next downside target. Closes above the 10-day moving average crossing at 1231.42 would confirm that a short-term low has been posted. Read full article... Read full article...

Stock Markets Waiting on Obamulus / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009
By: PaddyPowerTrader
Here is a new word for your lexicon. Obama + Stimulus = Obamulus. In a word that is what the market is focused upon plus key bellwether earnings reports due Thursday from JP Morgan, Intel and Genetech. Indices turned around yesterday after Bernanke's (“I'm all in”) LSE speech and word that Senate Majority leader Reid believes he has enough votes to get approval for the additional $350bn of the TARP. So led by financials the blue chip Dow finished only modestly lower with the broader indices and the NASDAQ getting their head above water. Read full article... Read full article...

The Stock Markets Next Move / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: Kingsley_Anderson
Despite the recent sell-off in the market, when all is said and done, the S&P 500 is still caught in a range between 850 and 950. As I mentioned at the beginning of the week, if 850 is breached, the retest of the November low will likely occur. The longer the index stays in this trading range, the more significant a breakout in either direction.Read full article... Read full article...

Capitalism At Risk: Live Free Or Die / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2009
By: Axel_Merk
The Federal Reserve (Fed) has gone beyond playing with fire, and may have indeed set the house on fire. It's one thing to push interest rates to near zero to stimulate the economy; it's another to “ monetize the debt ” by printing money to buy government debt. In recent weeks, the Fed has broken outside even those boundaries and become actively engaged in managing the private sector beyond the core banking system. Worse still, the steps taken may be difficult to reverse and as such may shape the U.S. economy for a long time. Read full article... Read full article...

How Deregulation Fueled the Financial Crisis / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2008
By: Money_Morning
Shah Gilani writes: No one person is responsible for the credit crisis, the failure of investment banks, the insolvency of commercial banks world-wide, the implosion of the world's stock markets, or for leading us to the precipice of another great depression.
The truth is there were many.

Banking Stocks Lead Equities Lower / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: PaddyPowerTrader
There is more than a whiff of October 2008 about the price action yesterday with Citibank (–17%) and Bank of America (–12%) leading equities tumbling. Investors gave a clear thumbs down to the plan by Citi to sell its brokerage business to Morgan Stanley as it smelt like a desperate attempt to raise capital. Some wag called it Citi-Morg! Alcoa kicked off US earnings season and came in with numbers that missed with some style. Read full article... Read full article...

Financial Markets Vertigo and Forecasts for 2009 / Stock-Markets / Investing 2009
By: John_Mauldin
I get a lot of newsletters from money managers around the country, which I try and read as they are written by people who are “in the trenches,” actually making decisions on behalf of their clients. It broadens my perspective. Frankly, most are not all that well written and unimaginative, but who ever said writing was easy? But some really strike a chord with me. Today’s Outside the Box I have read twice, which is unusual for me. Cliff Draughn is a wealth manager in Savannah, Georgia (Draughn Partners) and a good friend. His letter is a wide ranging tome on a variety of topics, but is full of common sense and one that I think will resonate with readers. I trust you will enjoy this.Read full article...

Wall Street's Rigged Casino / Stock-Markets / Market Manipulation
By: Jennifer_Barry
Last year was certainly a turbulent one for investors. Not only did good assets and companies sell off with bad, but the very integrity of the U.S. markets was brought into question. Financial firms spend millions of dollars convincing the average citizen that investing in stocks is necessary and prudent, yet the playing field is far from level. Fraud, naked shorting and other forms of manipulation are now endemic to the American markets. As Overstock's lawyer, John O'Quinn points out, “You have more chance to be treated fairly in a casino in Vegas.” How can you invest if you can't trust the system? Read full article...

Good Things Come to Those Who “Weight” - There's nothing like a bubble to make the markets really exciting. You can make a lot of money in bubbles…if you get out in time (emphasis on the “if”).

US Stock Market Index Open Interest Put / Call Ratio Analysis / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets
By: Captain_Hook
Well, Santa has come and gone and provided those who bet on a Christmas time rally a nice return, the best ever in fact with respect to the broads. After such an outcome, it's traditional to see a pullback to work-off an overbought condition when the majority of traders return from holidays, so don't be surprised if the broad markets fall early this week. Given continued high and rising US index open interest put / call ratios however, updated here for your review, any weakness in coming days should be temporary, with further squeezing into expiry only two-weeks away now anticipated in knowing speculators have turned increasingly bearish. A review of Figures 1 through 7 in the attached above is the basis of this conclusion.Read full article... Read full article...

Nasdaq Q's Approaching Key Downside Targets / Stock-Markets / Tech Stocks
By: Mike_Paulenoff
The Q's (NASDAQ: QQQQ) are approaching key near-term swing targets off of the Jan 6 rally peak at 31.63, the first of which is 29.35/30, which if violated will point to a press towards more important support at 28.80/70. My Oct-Jan pattern work argues that in either case (mentioned above), the larger pattern indicates that we should be expecting another upmove from 29.35/30 or 28.80/70. Having said that, however, my strategy for the Q's if I was short would be to cover "down here," but not to go long until we have signals to do so.Read full article... Read full article...

Stock, Commodities, Futures and Forex Markets Analysis 12th January 2009 / Stock-Markets / Futures Trading
By: INO
The March NASDAQ 100 was steady to slightly higher in overnight trading as it consolidates some of last Friday's decline. Stochastics and the RSI are bearish signaling that a short-term top might be in or is near. Closes below the 20-day moving average crossing at 1219.07 would confirm that a short-term top has been posted. If March renews the rally off November's low, the reaction high crossing at 1321.75 is the next upside target. Read full article... Read full article...

Stock Markets Retreat Ahead Of U.S. Corporate Earnings Season / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009
By: PaddyPowerTrader
Friday saw a late in the day sell-off of over 200 points in the Dow Jones. This was a reality check for those who tried (in vain) to trade the nonfarm jobs number as not quite as bad as feared . Standing back, while the headline number was not the kitchen sink number some had predicted, the downward revisions to previous months and the uptick in the unemployment rate meant the report was about as bad as it could have been. The major worry for equities remains earnings revisions and daily analyst downgrades which are sapping sentiment and sucking the life out of the appetite for risk. Read full article...

Financial System in Serious Trouble, Investment Gods Are Angry / Stock-Markets / Market Manipulation
By: Steve_Selengut
The Working Capital Model (WCM) is an historically new methodology, but with roots deeply imbedded in the building blocks of capitalism, and financial psychology--- if there actually is such a thing.
The earliest forms of capitalism sprung from ancient Roman mercantilism, which involved the production of goods and their distribution to people or countries around the Mediterranean.
