Hot Option Plays: Grind Continues

Posted: 26 Jun 2012 04:28 PM PDT

Cusick’s Corner 06-26-2012
As I stated in the midday, expect a choppy trading range and what may add to that choppiness is the window dressing that could start to occur towards the end of the week. The Bears will be monitoring the headlines out of the EU, mostly out of fear. The Bulls, many probably already fearful of the EU, now have to keep an eye on the data out here at home to see if the data parade continues to disappoint — Durable orders are the most notable. I have been paying more … [visit site to read more] or compare Credit Card Rewards and Best Credit Cards

The Diminishing Marginal Utility Of Excess Bank Reserves

Posted: 26 Jun 2012 04:15 PM PDT

This is not an argument for more quantitative easing, or QE3, as it would inevitably be called. Instead, this is about the logic of the argument for more quantitative easing. It is intended as a response to the oft-heard argument that more quantitative easing wouldn't stimulate the economy because past quantitative easing hasn't produced the desired results.
The answer is a simple economics concept, the concept of diminishing marginal utility. Other things equal, the more you have of … [visit site to read more] or compare Credit Card Rewards and Best Credit Cards

Trade Setups For Wednesday 27th June 2012

Sprint Nextel Corporation (NYSE:S) Pulled back to breakout area. It could find support here and resume the uptrend. Only a close below $3 would change the short-term outlook to bearish for the stock. The daily chart also shows a golden cross where the 50 day moving average breaks above the 200-day average.

A Little Bedtime Reading…

Posted: 26 Jun 2012 01:38 PM PDT

…for those who like nightmares:
“America Is No Longer a Land of Opportunity” (Joseph Stiglitz, Financial Times op-ed)
US inequality is at its highest point for nearly a century. Those at the top – no matter how you slice it – are enjoying a larger share of the national pie; the number below the poverty level is growing. The gap between those with the median income and those at the top is growing, too. The US used to think of itself as a middle-class country – but this is no longer … [visit site to read more] or compare Credit Card Rewards and Best Credit Cards

Hot Option Plays: Waiting For EU

Posted: 26 Jun 2012 01:27 PM PDT

Cusick’s Corner 06-26-2012
Similar to yesterday’s commentary — there are a lot of wild cards at this stage (and I hate reiterating this point), the EU has to come out with some sort of big statement or move (doubt the later) to take some of this pressure off the market. And whether it’s a very bold EU Bond (highly doubtful) or EU bank and insurance watchdog, something of that magnitude needs to come out in order for the bid to potentially start to nibble. Until then the choppy range bound … [visit site to read more] or compare Credit Card Rewards and Best Credit Cards

Heat Wave Threatens Corn Crop

Posted: 26 Jun 2012 01:27 PM PDT

Tuesday, June 26, 2012
Corn futures have been one of the hottest markets lately, sparked by hot, dry weather, which could reduce what was previously expected to be a record crop. The next week to two weeks are going to be very important to the health of the Corn crop, so traders will be closely watching weather conditions. Demand has been relatively soft, and wetter conditions in China could slow export demand from the Asian nation.
Fundamentals

An Ending Made For Gold

Posted: 26 Jun 2012 01:00 PM PDT

Over the past several months, the markets have tested investors' conviction to gold. Since February, the price of the yellow metal has steadily stepped lower, rallying somewhat in May before falling again when Ben Bernanke disappointed by not providing the U.S. with more stimulus. Meanwhile, the dollar gained ground as global investors fled the euro.

In the ongoing eurocrisis, we won't know the details of how Europe will clean up its debt mess for a while, but we're pretty confident the … [visit site to read more] or compare Credit Card Rewards and Best Credit Cards
