| Fed: Americans Are Saving Too Much Money, So We Need Them Spending Again Posted: 08 Oct 2010 03:45 AM PDT Some top Federal Reserve officials have come up with a really bizarre proposal for stimulating the U.S. economy. As unbelievable as it sounds, what they actually propose to do is to purposely raise the rate of inflation so that Americans will stop saving so much money and will start spending wildly again. The idea behind it is that if inflation rises a couple of percentage points, but consumers are only earning half a percent (or less) on their savings accounts, then there will be an … [visit site to read more]

| Platinum And Copper Approaching New Highs Posted: 08 Oct 2010 03:01 AM PDT We have all heard the saying "buy low-sell high" as the mantra of making money in the market. To apply this cliche is much easier said than done. Adhering to this rule is not an easy task and without the use of technical tools to determine buy points and targets, an investor can get caught up with the hysteria of a parabolic move. Now gold and silver is making huge advances as it continues the trend into new record territory. I wrote an article that discussed the … [visit site to read more]

| Asset Allocation In A Rising Interest Rate Environment With Gaetan Ruest Of Investors Group Posted: 08 Oct 2010 02:21 AM PDT Gaetan Ruest is Manager, Strategic Investment Planning, Investors Group Interest rates that are set by a country's central bank have a large impact on the capital markets (See: 'How the shape of the yield curve impacts your investment portfolio'). With interest rates (in Canada) having risen recently but still hovering near the 1% mark, knowing how your investment and retirement plans will be affected, is probably the best way to make sure you are not blindsided by the impact of … [visit site to read more]

| Gold And S&P 500: Important Levels To Watch Posted: 08 Oct 2010 01:55 AM PDT I am afraid I don’t have time for a full post today dear readers and I do apologize for the same but here are a few quick thoughts on today’s action and the important levels to keep in mind for Friday. All said and done, Thursday was just another consolidation day, thanks to the late day comeback by the bulls where they managed to almost close the S&P into positive territory. The support around 1150 levels held admirably but if you are bullish, you don’t want it tested too many … [visit site to read more]

| A Temporary Rally Seen In The US Dollar Posted: 08 Oct 2010 01:09 AM PDT Welcome to another day of Forex trading! In today's FX feature, I present to you an update on the US dollar index (USDX). A little more than a week ago I already warned the dollar bulls of a likely take over by the bears. And guess from, since September 28, the USDX has already fallen from 79.57 to 77.34. The 77.00 support, however, had kept the index from falling. Given this and its oversold condition, the index may range for awhile or even rally before continuing its descent. A move … [visit site to read more]

| Equity Analysis: Beyond Corporate Stenography Posted: 08 Oct 2010 12:09 AM PDT I normally don’t write very much about company analysis, because I have spent most of my professional life as a quant. Nevertheless, I was fortunate to have been a small cap/special situations analyst early in my career. That experience from the school of hard knocks taught me that, indeed, different industries have very different value-drivers and therefore different valuation metrics, which was a invaluable lesson for me later in my life as an equity quantitative analyst. Two recent events … [visit site to read more]

| Forex Trading: Eur/Usd From An Hourly Perspective Posted: 08 Oct 2010 12:02 AM PDT The question the next move in Eur/Usd bring us to yesterday's high of 1.4030 or down to recent support at 1.3880. The pair does seem to be in a holding pattern in wake of pending Non-Farm figures coming out of the U.S. at 8:30 EST. A break below should bring the pair to its 100 hour M/A at 1.3834. A break above probably to … [visit site to read more]

| Private Vs. Federal Government Saving Posted: 07 Oct 2010 08:51 PM PDT We frequently hear about how: a) the U.S. trade deficits are unsustainable and demonstrate that we are living beyond our means, b) we’ve become a nation of debtors, partly at least because: c) Americans don’t save. And yet the data above possibly suggest otherwise. Personal saving is now close to an all-time high in nominal dollars at $673 billion, and has more than tripled since the fourth quarter of 2007 when it was $223.6 billion. … [visit site to read more]

| Is The U.S. A Currency Manipulator? Posted: 07 Oct 2010 07:52 PM PDT The trade-weighted U.S. dollar index has depreciated by almost 40% over the last ten years vs. the world’s major currencies (see chart above). Does that make the U.S. a currency manipulator? Here’s a little editing fun of this article: “China The United States flatly denies that its currency manipulation undervalues the renminbi (yuan) dollar by 40 percent and has become one of the foremost impediments to fair and equitable global trade, experts say. "That undervaluation of the … [visit site to read more]

| Currency Wars: The Phantom Menace Posted: 07 Oct 2010 07:01 PM PDT The last thing the global economy needs right now is anything that would hamper or derail economic growth. Unfortunately, there appears a growing specter of this occurring. Brazil and Japan's recent decisions to intervene in the currency markets follow a disturbing trend. If policy makers are not careful, present dynamics may precipitate a worldwide economic slowdown, brought about by protectionist pressures and exacerbated by political motivations globally. Competitive currency … [visit site to read more]

| And You Thought Last Time Was Bad… Posted: 07 Oct 2010 06:19 PM PDT If there is one thing that mainstream analysts seem to agree on, it is that the worst of the economic storm has passed. But as was the case during the early days of the crisis, many mistakenly assume that because things seem fairly calm on the surface, there is not a great deal to worry about. In the end, of course, the stresses and strains back then triggered an eruption that had many thinking that the world was coming to an end. Are we near that point again? Based on what what one smart … [visit site to read more]
