Will the [tag]trend[/tag] enter a [tag]correction[/tag], is it heading for return to its downtrend journey or will it gain new strength to move up? We will see next week. Last 30 days [tag]performance[/tag] Continue reading →

Market monitor – Sectors & Industries
Watching [tag]markets[/tag], [tag]sectors[/tag] and [tag]industry[/tag] groups when selecting [tag]stocks[/tag] to buy is one of the most important things to do. If buying a new stock, you want to buy a stock which is within a [tag]leading industry[/tag].

Synaptics Inc – another candidate to buy?
[tag]Synaptics Inc[/tag] ([tag]SYNA[/tag]) is another candidate for a [tag]trade[/tag], which I added to my [tag]watch list[/tag] today. Here are my reasons: The [tag]stock[/tag] is [tag]up-trending[/tag]. However, I have some comments to this item, see below the [tag]chart[/tag].

Picks 04/27 – 05/01
No [tag]new picks[/tag]. The stock market trend is a bit weak, but still heading upwards. Recently I could see some stocks doing well, such as GMCR. This stock has a potential growing even more.

Credit Card companies to lose profit
This web site is not about [tag]personal finances[/tag], for which I would recommend reading A Personal Finance Guide for example. However yesterday I have seen a short sketch on [tag]Fox TV[/tag] regarding the House of Representatives passing a bill to protect [tag]consumers[/tag] against fine prints. It was interesting presentation of [tag]credit card companies[/tag]’ arrogance. I Continue reading →
