| So What’s Going To Happen When The Insanely Large Derivatives Bubble Pops? Posted: 09 Aug 2010 03:01 AM PDT Today there is a horrific derivatives bubble that threatens to destroy not only the U.S. economy but the entire world financial system as well, but unfortunately the vast majority of people do not understand it. When you say the word “derivatives” to most Americans, they have no idea what you are talking about. In fact, even most members of the U.S. Congress don’t really seem to understand them. But you don’t have to get into all the technicalities to understand the bigger … [visit site to read more] |
| Narrowing TED Spread Points To Lower Default Risk Posted: 09 Aug 2010 02:40 AM PDT The TED spread (i.e. three-month dollar LIBOR less three-month Treasury Bills) is a measure of perceived credit risk in the economy. This is because T-bills are considered risk-free while LIBOR (i.e. the interest rate banks charge each other) reflects the credit risk of lending to commercial banks. An increase in the TED spread is a sign that lenders believe the risk of default on interbank loans (also known as counterparty risk) is increasing. On the other hand, when the risk of bank defaults … [visit site to read more] |

| Something Big Is Brewing Under The Surface In Silver Posted: 09 Aug 2010 01:01 AM PDT Now that we have a weekly swing low and a higher high I think the odds are heavily in favor of the intermediate cycle bottom being in place for gold. Just like all the calls for a market crash back in June, the calls for sub $1000 gold are probably going to be a bit premature. I really doubt we will ever see $1000 gold again during this bull market. It was simply getting too late in the intermediate cycle for gold to have enough time to make it all the way back to $1000. Just like we … [visit site to read more] |
| Posted: 09 Aug 2010 12:03 AM PDT I have been somewhat skeptical of the current stock market rally but I haven’t quite been able to put my finger on the reason - until I looked at the market relative charts to see where the leadership has been coming from. The downdraft that ended in early July was based on a double-dip recession scare. If Mr. Market truly believed that the recovery was real, then we should see leadership from sectors such as Consumer Discretionary stocks. The chart below shows the relative performance of the … [visit site to read more] |

| Forex Trading: Canadian Dollar Down On Dismal Employment Data Posted: 08 Aug 2010 10:30 PM PDT Welcome to a brand new week of forex trading! On today’s canvas is the 4-hour chart of the USDCAD pair. As you can see, the pair has been trending south for the past month. After hitting a new 3-month low of 1.0107 on August 5, it then rallied strongly. At present, it is trading below 1.0300. A break above this could send it to 1.0350 or at 1.0400. However, it looks like the pair is experiencing some selling pressure at 1.0300. Interestingly, this mark almost falls in line with the … [visit site to read more] |
| Tuesday’s FOMC Meeting Is D-Day For U.S. Stock Market Posted: 08 Aug 2010 09:22 PM PDT As poor economic news continued to pour in last week, punctuated by Friday’s dismal Non Farm Payrolls report, the chatter regarding “QE2″ or “QE Lite,” some sort of additional quantitative easing by the Fed, rose to nearly hysterical levels by the close of business Friday. We’ll talk in a moment about how terrible last week’s data really were, however, it’s important to look ahead to Tuesday’s FOMC meeting and why it’s “D-Day” for U.S. and global markets. The rumblings from various … [visit site to read more] |
| The Miracle Of Flight Has Never Been Cheaper Posted: 08 Aug 2010 08:32 PM PDT There’s been a lot of complaints lately about air travel because of crowded planes, fees for checked luggage, security lines, etc., and there’s a lot of nostalgia for the good old days of free food, no extra fees for baggage or anything else, half-empty planes where you could often get 2 or 3 seats to yourself, no security issues, etc. But I don’t think anybody is too nostalgic for the airfares of yesteryear, which were 66% higher in 1993 at an average ticket price of $541 … [visit site to read more] |
