Will Yellen raise rates? We do not know but sell everything, just in case

Will Yellen raise rates? We do not know but sell everything, just in case

Friday trading was a carnage. I consider this quite funny. Since FED’s chairman changed the policy of transparency some time ago now any Mr. Fed Unimportant can talk about FED policy publicly. But what they do is not expressing the policy or what FED will do or will not, they rather express their opinions. Any Continue reading →

Markets still flashing a recession

CNBC has it sometimes right, be it Rick Santelli or Carter Worth. Although many technical analysts saw this way before Carter, it holds water. Watch and judge for yourself:

Is Yellen going to sway the markets tomorrow? Probably not.

But some of those FED addicts may hope for it. All of us others let’s be prepared for any outcome and make our trades accordingly. Those who hope for Yellen saving the trend will be probably disappointed tomorrow and even if the market shows us some push, I believe, we are way beyond any trend Continue reading →

Bull is dead, long live the bear!

(Source: Hedgeye.com)   Last Friday trading and rally was impressive. I hoped it would last longer than this. Today, the market gave up almost all gains from Friday. It really didn’t take long. First, the Friday’s rally was based on a Bank of Japan’s decision to lower the interest rates below zero (negative rates), which Continue reading →

Rally! Hurrah, all is good again!

Hold your horses. We may have experienced a rally here but it may not mean we are done with selling. It is just a mere volatility entering the market. It is also typical for bear markets to have violent bullish spikes on its way down. Before you jump on buying (or selling) long investments (or Continue reading →

  Yes, these were the words of a FED member (I believe it was Stanley Fisher, but not 100% sure) who said that when he expressed his views on the last 7 years of FED action and monetary policy. FED wanted to create a sense of wealth so people would be comforted and spend money Continue reading →

This market is poised for another 10% drop

The S&P 500 is now 12% off of the all-time high price. Many investors and traders say that we are way oversold and we should go up from now here or bounce. Yes, we may bounce, but overall, market price action data indicate that selling is far from over and that we may see more Continue reading →

Why the heck are the markets tanking?

That was a question Yahoo! has recently asked. Sometimes it really stuns me out when liberals start slowly waking up and asking such questions, which all others with common sense already knew what was happening. Yet there is still many with the rose colored glasses on unquestionably believing everything FED and Obama’s administration is feeding Continue reading →
