Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 24th of July.

Yesterday, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) surprised analysts with better-than-expected iPhone sales, and indicated that it expects a "busy fall" with new products.

Apple CEO, Tim Cook, said in a statement, "We are laser-focused and working hard on some amazing new products that we will introduce in the fall and across 2014."

In after-hours trading, the market voted with a dramatic 5% rally in Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL). If you haven't already watched my special report first published on 07/13/13 on Apple, watch it here.

Today's Video Update: Is the high price of crude oil going to torpedo the equity markets?

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 19th of July.

One piece of financial news that doesn't seem to generate a lot of press is the high price of crude oil. The price of crude oil has been sneaking up for the past month and is now fast approaching $110 a barrel. That equates to a 15% price hike for anyone driving or using any kind of products that use petroleum, like plastics, paint, roof shingles, cosmetics, tires, asphalt and many many more products that we use on a daily basis.

It is interesting to note that the Fed does not include energy or food items in its inflation index.

The question has to be asked, "is the high price of crude oil going to torpedo the equity markets?"

At the moment, it would appear as though the markets are ignoring crude oil prices and focusing on earnings. If the high price of crude oil continues, I would expect it will eventually catch the eyes of smart traders and could act as a catalyst for a market break. At the moment the torpedoes are in there tubes waiting to be fired.

With a target zone of $110 per barrel for crude, I see no reason to abandon long positions and want to hold firm for longer term traders. This market could be a classic weekend play. Watch today's video and I'll explain why.

Detroit Goes Belly Up And Gold Goes Nowhere
Despite the news that the fourth largest city in the US just declared Chapter 9 bankruptcy, gold prices barely moved. In fact, gold has been moribund for the last four weeks with all our Trade Triangles still in a bear mode.

Today's Video Update: Let's Face It, Bernanke Is A Wimp

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 17th of July.

Let's Face It, Bernanke Is A Wimp
To be fair to Fed chairman Bernanke, he is human and like all humans, he is not perfect. His weakness right now is he just wants to get through the rest of his term, which ends on the 14th of January 2014, and not rock the boat. I think if anyone has said that the QE program (yeah, printing money), now in it's fourth year, would take this long nobody would have believed it, including chairman Bernanke.

The reality is, QE looks like a trade that has gone bad and nobody wants to admit it. It was a bad bet (trade) the Fed made and they all have egg on their faces, but nobody from the Fed is ever going to say they made a mistake with the QE program, including Chairman Bernanke. Like I mentioned earlier, humans are known to make mistakes. Continue reading "Today's Video Update: Let's Face It, Bernanke Is A Wimp"
