How To Trade Google Right Now As It Soars Post-Earnings

Posted: 16 Oct 2010 03:45 AM PDT

Happy weekend stock market enthusiasts! The US market or at least the NASDAQ ended this week with a bang after a magnificent performance by Google (NASDAQ:GOOG). In case you missed it, the shares of Google (GOOG) soared by 11.19% following a jump in the company's net income. Net profit expanded by 32% to $2.17 billion, which translates to $6.72 per share, from $1.64 billion during the previous year. Given this figure, the web search giant is proved to be benefiting very well from its … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates


S&P 500 – What To Expect?

Posted: 16 Oct 2010 01:12 AM PDT

The surge in global stock markets led me to have a look at the valuation of the equities and especially the S&P 500 Index. In the paragraphs below, I consider various valuation measures in order to get a feel for whether the Index is overpriced or not.
Robert Shiller's cyclically adjusted price earnings ratio (NASDAQ:CAPE)

Stephen Wiltshire: “Living Camera”

Posted: 16 Oct 2010 01:03 AM PDT

This post has nothing to do with the world of finance, but it is so remarkable that I thought I would share it with you.
Stephen Wiltshire from London is a star among savants. Stephen is autistic. He did not speak his first words "pencil" and "paper" until he was 5. Yet, when he was 11 he drew a perfect aerial view of London after only one helicopter ride. For this film, the "Living Camera" was tested in Rome, courtesy of … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

Laugh Out Loud: U.S. Jobs Still Waiting To Be Rescued …

What Did Bernanke Say During His Speech In Boston That Was So Earth-Shattering?

Posted: 15 Oct 2010 11:53 PM PDT

When Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke gives a speech about the U.S. economy, it gets a whole lot more attention than when Barack Obama gives a speech about the U.S. economy.  Why is this true?  Well, it is because Bernanke has a whole lot more control over the U.S. economy than Obama does. It is the Federal Reserve that controls monetary policy and interest rates. It is the Federal Reserve that can create money out of thin air. It is the Federal Reserve which is going to have the … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates


Sign Of A Top?

Posted: 15 Oct 2010 07:11 PM PDT

This is not an investment opinion. But as a long-time market-watcher and died-in-the-wool contrarian, I can’t help but think that a newsletter targeted to investors in one popular and high-flying technology company, marketed in a post-cum-advertisement at the Business Insider (a blog I happen to visit on a regular basis), can be seen as anything other than a sign of a top — for the stock, the technology sector, or even the market as a whole.

Forex Trading: Can The USD Continue To Gain Ground Today?

Posted: 14 Oct 2010 11:50 PM PDT

Can The USD Continue to Gain Ground Today?
A tightening of monetary policy in Singapore was the main factor in the dollar dropping to record lows against several of its main currency rivals in trading yesterday. The EUR/USD pair went as high as 1.4123 before staging a downward correction. At the moment the pair is trading around 1.4025, still well above the psychologically significant 1.4000 level. Whether or not the dollar can extend its gains today will likely depend on a batch of US news … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates
