Credit Downgrades May Prompt Stock Market Capital Shift / Stock-Markets / Stock Market 2017
By: Chris_Vermeulen
Recent news regarding Moody’s credit downgrades in China will likely continue to roil the global markets and present multiple unique opportunities for strategic investors. As debt concerns grow throughout some areas of Asia and new US policy efforts shake up some common perceptions, a shift in capital is likely to occur over the next few months.
Today, I read about massive layoffs in India’s technology sector as a reaction to decreasing engagement of foreign IT services/support is a result of President Trump’s policies. When we take this news in combination with Moody’s credit downgrades for China and the fact that almost all of South East Asia is interconnected in terms of economy and trade, we begin to see a picture that is fairly clear in terms of transitional economic shifts.

Debt Mile Markers on the Road to Ruin / Stock-Markets / Global Debt Crisis 2017
By: DeviantInvestor
We know much is currently wrong with our financial world, as discussed in the James Rickards book “The Road to Ruin” and elsewhere.
- The official U.S. government debt is nearly $20 trillion. Unfunded liabilities are 5 – 10 times larger. Debt has doubled every 8 – 9 years for decades – since the Federal Reserve was put in charge of devaluing the dollar. Debt will continue to grow, obviously out of control.
- Millions of Americans are out of work, regardless of the official statistics.
- Prices increase, some rapidly, regardless of the official statistics on consumer price inflation.
- More government spending and debt are looming on the horizon. New and escalating wars are likely. Expect more deficits, debt, and inflation.
- The U.S. stock market is selling at all-time highs, levitated by “easy money” and unsupported by fundamentals or breadth.

Stock Market Excellent Consolidation Day / Stock-Markets / Stock Market 2017
By: Harry_Boxer
The stock market indices had a very excellent consolidation day, ending with gains on the day. The day started out with a pop to the upside, then a quick pullback, but the S&P 500 went to new highs, and the Nasdaq 100 failed to do so. When that happened, they pulled back midday. They tried to rally in the afternoon, unable to take out the highs. They pulled back at the end of the day, but then a quick, ten-minute snapback ensued that put them in the plus column.

SPX Burns Stock Market Shorts / Stock-Markets / Stock Market 2017
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
SPX sits on the knife’s edge. There’s no new high, but no decline to speak of, yet. Anything may happen, including an overnight bust. However, I cannot make any recommendations without more substantiation.
By the way, SPX did “close the gap” at 2400.67, taking out the shorts who jumped in beneath the trendline.

The Stock Market Will Tank Hard / Stock-Markets / Stock Market 2017
By: The_Gold_Report
The script for 2017-2018: Melt Up, then Global Meltdown, says Lior Gantz, editor of Wealth Research Group, who sees industrial metals, specifically silver and zinc, leading a commodities charge, while broad indices take a nose dive.
The market cap of the NASDAQ has reached a new all-time high of $8.705 trillion recently, which is equal to 45.8% of U.S. GDP. The long-term median NASDAQ market cap/GDP ratio is only 24.91%.

Rosenberg: Republican Presidents Always Come In Near The Stock Market Top / Stock-Markets / Stock Market 2017
By: John_Mauldin
By Patrick Watson : GOP presidents have terrible luck. The last three before Trump took office near economic and market peaks, and Trump may have done the same.
That's what Gluskin Sheff economist David Rosenberg said at the Mauldin Economics Strategic Investment Conference today. In a sweeping presentation he called "The Trials and Tribulations of Trumponomics," Rosenberg noted the odd pattern dating back almost 40 years.

Stock Markets Should Fear Central Banks More Than Trump / Stock-Markets / Stock Market 2017
By: Michael_Pento
Trump’s economic agenda has become further delayed by what seems like daily leaks from the White House. This may finally bring about the long-awaited equity market pullback of at least 5 percent. However, what will prove to be far more troubling than Trump’s ongoing feuds with the DOJ and the press, is the upcoming market collapse due to the removal of the bids from global central banks.The markets have been feeding off artificial interest rates from our Federal Reserve and that of the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan for years. In addition, the global economy has been stimulated further by a tremendous amount of new debt generated from China that was underwritten by the PBOC. After it reached the saturation point of empty cities, China is now building out its “Belt and Road Initiative” that could add trillions of dollars to the debt-fueled stimulus scheme that has been spewed out over the world-wide economy.

Stock Market Trend Forecast and Fear Trading / Stock-Markets / Stock Market 2017
By: Chris_Vermeulen
The broad US stock market last week took a tumble sending a massive wave of fear through investors’ minds. On Wednesday May 17th the S&P 500 index plummeted 1.7% causing the fear index to jump a whopping 48% in a single session.
What does this mean and what should we expect going forward? I don’t see the recent drop as being anything to worry about at this point. It’s important to remember that some of that larges drops in stocks happen during a bull market (rising trend). In fact, these stand out sharp drops on the charts are nothing more than the market trying to buck investors out of the bull market (scare them out) before it continues higher.

Stocks Bull Market and Donald Trump's Death Knell / Stock-Markets / Stock Market 2017
By: Clif_Droke
In the minds of many investors, the election victory of Donald J. Trump to the United States Presidency was nothing short of a miracle. Following his shocking victory, expectations were high that Trump would, with the help of Congress, fulfill his promises of tax reform and infrastructure spending. The lifting of the heavy penalties associated with Obamacare was another hope that investors cherished. Many hailed his victory by declaring that it was “morning in America” again. But after only six months since the election, Trump's presidency has hit a potentially fatal obstacle and he now faces the growing possibility of impeachment.

Stocks, Commodities and Gold Multi-Market Status / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2017
By: Gary_Tanashian
It has now been exactly 10 months since we established 2410 as the measured objective for the S&P 500. In forming a potential double top this week at 2405.77 I’d say we are close enough to call the target in (as we did in February when the first top was made on what we called “peak Trump” day, post-congressional address).
Now, a target is not a stop sign; in this case it was a long-term objective based on a chart pattern, period. It could make me look like the genius I certainly am not, or it could just pause at the target on its way to further upside mania and a potential market blow off. Don’t let ’em baffle you with bullshit, nobody knows which of those, or whatever else may be in store.
