Blame The Fed For The Commodities Slump

Jul 28, 2015 Jeremy Parkinson Finance 0

When we left you at the end of last week the world was falling apart. As you know, the economy functions on electronic credit… not cold, hard cash. Without the banks pumping more credit into the system – by way of loans – it sags. The Dow fell 163 points – or about 1% – on Friday. […]

Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy in 5/15 the stock gained 100.28%. Eros International Plc co-produces, […]

S&P Valuation Behind The Curve

Jul 27, 2015 Jeremy Parkinson Finance 0

Apparently, no one sent the market memo to the S&P 500 until last week when investors woke up to the prospect of “stretched” valuations after months of warnings from US Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen. Last Friday’s substantial losses come on the heels of global equity losses to which US benchmarks are not immune, but […]

Fifth Day Of Selling

Jul 27, 2015 Jeremy Parkinson Finance 0

Sellers in the S&P made it five days of downside in a row. On this last day it closed near the day’s lows, but also on its 200-day MA. If there was reason for a bounce, then tomorrow could be the day. Technicals are all net negative. The Dow took the selling harder. It […]

Inflation Deniers Emboldened By Gold’s Struggles

Jul 27, 2015 Jeremy Parkinson Finance 0

The vultures are circling. Precious metals bulls, laid flat by gold and silver prices dropping for the 5th week in a row, are watching deflationists such as Harry Dent and the financial media squawk about the imminent demise of precious metals. The superficial and condescending coverage of the metals markets in the financial press has […]

Jul 27, 2015 Jeremy Parkinson Finance 0

There is a chart of the GDX relative to the Price of Gold. This is why some will say that the miners are ‘weak relative to the price of the metal.’ And they are. They can get even cheaper, and the underlying metal can also get ‘cheaper.’ Sentiment is obviously at a negative extreme, and […]
