Tesla Troubles
Last week I visited one of the popular investing message boards, where investors were debating the latest news from electric vehicle (EV) maker Tesla Inc (Nasdaq: TSLA). Feelings about Tesla are as polarized as today’s political viewpoints. Both bears and bulls are absolutely convinced of their case, and they can be insufferable when arguing it. But this […]
Choosing The Right Curves
The background for inflation hysteria was pretty simple. Globally synchronized growth meant acceleration in the US economy which would raise demand for labor. The unemployment rate, faulty as it has been, suggests that any further increase in labor utilization would just have to pressure wages – the competition for workers rises as the marginal supply […]
Is Russia Preparing For A Global Currency War By Stacking Silver?
(Video length 00:19:03) Here is the article used in today’s video.
Value Investing And Tolerating Pain
So you want to be a value investor, like the great Warren Buffett. A worthy goal, to be sure. But before going down that road you may want to ask yourself the following question: What is my tolerance for pain? You read that word correctly: pain. To be a great value investor, or any investor […]
5 Stocks To Make The Most Of An Imminent Rate Hike
The Fed’s new chairman Jerome Powell’s optimistic view on U.S. economic growth and encouraging near-term inflation outlook have raised the possibility of a rate hike this month. Banks, brokerage firms, and insurers will benefit the most from this much-anticipated hike. Faster Pace of Policy Tightening by Fed The Fed is likely to increase rates […]
Global Equity Breadth Breakdown
The latest price action across global equities has driven a deterioration in market breadth. The 50-day moving average breadth indicator for the 70 countries we monitor has fallen to levels last seen in the wake of the 2015/16 corrections. It was those corrections which ultimately drove the reset which created the conditions for the new […]
Nomura Unveils The ‘4 Triggers’ That Will ‘Burst The Data Bubble’
One of the narratives that is quickly becoming a driver of markets is the idea that a confluence of factors have conspired against market darlings like Facebook and Google. Not the least of these factors is politics. As we noted first thing this morning and as we detailed extensively over the weekend both here and elsewhere, the political […]
Facebook Could Become Solid GARP Play If Near-Term Pressures Continue
Facebook (FB) stock debuted less than six years ago at $38 per share and went through two very distinct sentiment shifts. The current environment, as the company faces pressure from multiple sides to better control use of its massive platform, could very well mark yet another shift. In May 2012, Facebook IPO’d and flooded the market […]
March US Wheat Stocks
Market Analysis The wheat market’s focus maybe split between the upcoming quarterly stocks and the US producers’ prospective planting survey since both USDA reports will be released on March 29. The upcoming March 1 stocks report is important to see if wheat’s current demand trends for exports, feed, and food are remaining on their targets […]
Crude Oil Breaks Out, But Will It Last?
For the past several weeks, I’ve been watching triangle patterns form in crude oil after its slide in early-February. Breakouts from triangle patterns often lead to important directional moves, which is why I believe it is worthwhile to pay attention to these formations. Both WTI and Brent crude oil finally broke out of their […]
