U.S Treasuries: Heading for a Rally or an Implosion?

I just don't like 'crisis' scenarios, they are usually just latter day jeremiads. I say a weak version of scenario one. Stocks resume their decline, perhaps to a new low; bonds and the dollar benefit from some flight capital; commodities/gold sell off sharply.

Not until the US and the world make a major commitment to free markets, free trade, lower taxes, less crony capitalism, and less regulation, the world economy will continue a Jimmy Carter scenario of stagnation. Dow PE of 6, anyone???

An Earnings Season Options Strategy

Bah, Humbug! Spreads or Condors would be even better. Limited gains, but limited losses as well; and less capital commited.

Bond Expert: Wednesday Outlook

When the fed bought treasuries in late November TBond prices jumped by what...10 points, over a sustained burst of buying lasting two weeks or so.

Once that sucker rally ended..the fed has bought TBonds again...what have we got this time? A one day rally on suspiciously low volume and not much follow through.

So Far. :)

Tuesday's Financial Trifecta

If short sellers have to sell on an uptick, why not be consistent and make em buy on a downtick? While we're a;; checkin' for ticks, why don't we just appoint Brad Paisley as chairman of the SEC and be done with it!

Cheers to all the bulls!
