Echo To All

What Corporate Yield Spreads Are Telling Us About Equities

like every indicator, traders have to know when they are applicable.

The Calm Before the Storm?

or maybe the markets are just waiting for monday. If the deal does not pass the equity market will collapse.

the market was speaking last week, as it moved in the direction of political mood. It was up when their was confidence in the deal to get done, and futures tanked when talks broke down.

I do not want a bs deal to go through, but the markets want something. We don't get a deal before market opens monday, the market stops waiting to pick a direction... it will choose down... big time.

Wake Up America, You’re Sinking

another feel good story, within a bear market, from what appears to be an elitist touting the grass is greener over 'there'. awesome.

I am an American that has his eyes open, and knows how to play the trends. I also travel to europe quite a bit, and see the realities over there too. Things are not good for the average person there.

Within America... how about we look a few short years out, and the consequence of having an far more independent energy structure? what would that mean? How much money would that equate to staying in the US? What would that do to the dollar?

every country has its problems.

Interpret a Stagnant VIX As You Will

currently, the vix is representing the longer-term bearishness of the overall market... no spikes in a down market is not good in general. (at least that is what my obervation with the vix has told me over the 2yrs correlating it with the market day to day.)

doesn't mean we go down tomorrow, but we just haven't seen a bottom yet.
