Is today's huge upward move in equities going to continue or fizzle out?

The sharp downward trend in most of the markets last week was dramatically reversed today, with huge gains in equities, crude oil, gold and many other markets.

Is this the start of a new trend?

It is way too early to tell!  Last week we witnessed tremendous liquidation in markets across the board.  This week we would not rule out Continue reading "Is this the start of a new trend?"

3 Big Turkeys - Congress, Europe and Jon Corzine

There's no doubt about it, 2011 is turning out to be the year of the turkeys.  With all of the major international stock markets lower for the year, 2011 has not been a good year for "buy and hold" investors.

As of this writing, all of the major US indices are lower, with the S&P 500 down over 5%.  The current scenario reminds me of what Will Rogers, a very famous American humorist, had to say over 70 years ago, “I am more concerned about the return OF my capital, than the return ON my capital”.

We couldn't agree more!  We feel thankful Continue reading "3 Big Turkeys - Congress, Europe and Jon Corzine"

From MF Global, The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight

MF Global … Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, it does!  Now it's $1.2 billion that's missing, not $600 million, which was bad enough.

This is not today's market update video, but it shows just how the current administration thinks.  I don't care if you are a republican or a democrat, with great minds like this handling government money, what could go wrong? Continue reading "The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight"

Moody's, France, the SUPERCOMMITEE, you name it!  It's all toxic for the market!

Traders looking for good news are going to be hard-pressed this week, as everything seems to be "hitting the fan" at the same time.

We have Moody's Investor Services warning about a possible downgrade to France's credit and it all seems to be feeding off itself.  Let's not forget the other credit bombs like Italy, Greece, Spain, Portugal and Ireland.  This is one mega-mess that is not going to be easily gotten out of.

It's Friday and we know what that means!

As we move into the trading day, the equity markets are all lower for the week.  Many of the markets came under pressure this past week, including crude oil which looks like it is going to close lower for the week after reaching a six month high earlier in the week.  This is not a particularly positive sign for this market.
