The Anti-Perfect Jobs Condition
The irony of the unemployment rate for the Federal Reserve is that the lower it gets now the bigger the problem it is for officials. It has been up to this year their sole source of economic comfort. Throughout 2015, the Establishment Survey improperly contributed much the same sympathy, but even it no longer resides […]
Crude Oil’s Sweet Spot
The long-term chart below of Crude Oil shows a potential reverse Head & Shoulders pattern that has formed since the end of 2014, with a high-level tug-of-war occurring above the light green shaded area (just above a 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level and within the upper half of a declining channel) at 43.50 since mid-2016. At the moment, we see major indecision […]
Weighing The Week Ahead: Is The Bond Market Sending A Message For Stocks?
After the news-heavy calendar last week, there are few market-moving economic reports in the week ahead. It is also the quiet period for the Fed. How will the punditry fill those empty minutes? Last week’s trading revived a question that many find puzzling. I expect pundits to be asking: How can bonds and stocks both […]
Weekly Trading Forecast: Politics In Focus On UK Election, Comey
An unexpectedly uncertain UK election and testimony from ousted FBI director James Comey may rattle markets and overshadow economic news-flow. US Dollar Forecast:US Dollar at Risk as Political Jitters Rattle Financial Markets The US Dollar is vulnerable to further weakness as political uncertainty shakes global markets and undermines the Fed’s ability to sustain a lasting rate […]
North American Marijuana Index Drops 15% In May, Worst Month In Over A Year
The North American Marijuana Index, a stock index that tracks the top performing cannabis stocks in the U.S. and Canada, decreased 15% in May as stocks sold off in both markets. This marks the worst performing month for the North American Marijuana Index since December 2015. The North American Marijuana Index is a combination of […]
As Short Interest Jumps And Outflows Rise, Bill Blain Warns: “The Amount Of Passive Money Is Scary”
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again: if you’re a retail investor and you’re long high yield through popular ETFs, it’s probably not a good sign when you see the pros increasingly expressing their own longs via CDS while simultaneously shorting the ETFs you’re in. And that’s exactly what looks to be going […]
B&G Foods (BGS): A High Yield Stock With Double-Digit Dividend Growth
Food stocks can often make excellent long-term dividend growth investments, thanks to the highly defensive nature of their businesses. After all, everyone has to eat no matter what the economy or interest rates are doing. This is why many well-known food blue chips are among the list of dividend aristocrats and dividend kings, which have track records of […]

The Top 10 of the Ranking and Rating list for the coming week shows the following stronger currencies being well represented for going long: the CHF(4X) followed by the EUR(2X). The weaker currencies are the AUD(4X) followed by the CAD(3X) followed. A nice combination for coming week may be e.g: AUD/CHF with the EUR/CAD CAD/CHF with […]
June 2017 Stock Considerations
Where is 2017 going? I can’t believe we’re already knocking on the door of summer. I guess the older we get the faster time seems to fly by. That point just illustrates to me the importance of staying invested in the market no matter what crazy headlines are being written nor what events transpire around […]
