Should You Buy Or Sell The Spike In Fear?
The Dow dropped 1300 points in a couple of days and the CNBC fear machine cranked into high gear. Even Fox Business News got into the action with the headline grabber “Biggest market crash in our lifetime coming – economist Harry Dent”. Of course, if you google “Harry Dent crash”, he makes the same call […]
This Week In Cryptocurrency – Friday, Oct. 12
AH, My Eyes! It Burns! So much for stability. Just when we thought the worst times were behind us, the market decides to take another dip into the depths below. The entire crypto market was hovering around $220 billion for the majority of the week before shedding off over $20 billion towards the end. It […]
You Aboard These Breakouts In Coffee & Sugar?
Two weeks ago the Power of the Pattern shared that bullish opportunities were forming in two hard-hit commodity ETF’s. Above is an update of what these patterns look like 10-days after the original posts. On 10/2 we shared this post; “Are Coffee Prices Primed For A Reversal Highs?” See post here. On 10/1 we shared this post; “Sour times […]
Yield Curve Steepens But Recession Risks Haven’t Faded
The yield curve has steepened considerably in the past month. Some think it means recession risk has diminished. Yield Curve Debate Not necessarily @greg_ip @IanShepherdson Look at a chart of the yield curve it steepenes at the onset of recessions. Another possibility to consider, despite the alleged strength of the economy is the yield curve […]
JPMorgan’s (JPM) Q3 Earnings Beat On Loans & Higher Rates
Higher-than-expected equity trading revenues and rise in demand for loans drove JPMorgan’s (JPM – Free Report) third-quarter 2018 earnings of $2.34 per share, which outpaced the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.24. The figure was up 33% from the prior-year quarter. The stock rose nearly 1.5% in pre-market trading, indicating that investors have taken the results in their stride. […]
How Close Are The Clouds?
April was only a half a year ago, the optimism of 2017 at that time as yet untroubled by darkening skies. What had happened earlier in the year was nothing, they said, just a little nervousness about things becoming, don’t laugh, too good. Inflation was picking up because the global economy was roaring, which would require […]
Bitcoin Breakdown May Push Prices Below $5000
Recent market turmoil across the global stock markets has refocused investors on the concerns of global economics, trade, and geopolitical issues – away from cryptocurrencies. The biggest, Bitcoin, has been under extended pricing pressure recently and we believe Bitcoin will breach the $6000 level to the downside fairly quickly as extended global market downtrends continue. […]
Conservative Investors: Step Up!
Back on September 20, 2018, I posed the question: Should conservative investors take the paper bags off their heads? and offered some stock ideas for those inclined to answer in the affirmative. Since then, the market has had some rocky episodes (see, e.g., tech, FANG stocks, trade, worsening political tribalism, etc.). But that’s not necessarily why I’m […]
U. Of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Misses
Forecasts for the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment predicted the preliminary October release to increase to 100.5 from last month’s 100.1. This morning’s release missed forecasts, falling to 99.0. While this is below previous levels, it is important to note that it is not a big drop in sentiment, nor is it low relative to recent years. Admittedly […]
