DOOMSDAY FOR THE DOLLAR?

Posted by Aadil on July 27, 2011 at 11:23pm

A downgrade would be the straw that broke that camel’s back. Fiscal and monetary policies in the U.S. do not support the dollar and the only reason why the dollar has rallied at all is because of its safe haven status.

Robin Griffiths - We Will See at Least $8,500 Gold. (interview transcript)

Posted by L Levin on July 27, 2011 at 8:24pm

“It’s essential to own it, basically the West is so deep in debt across the western world that it can’t possibly grow at more than very modest rates. Central banks, to try to stimulate growth, are printing paper money into oblivion, and we’ve simply got to hedge that risk by owning gold.”

“If you adjust the old all-time high in gold...if you use the RPI, you come up with a figure near $8,500 as the genuine price for gold, the old all-time high adjusted for inflation. I think we have to own it. Obviously it won’t go there in a straight line, it gets a little overbought and has setbacks, but I think it will probably hit $1,750 on this run. Then it might well have a three month period going sideways before moving up again. http://kingworldnews.com/kingworldnews/KWN_DailyWeb/Entries/2011/7/27_Robin_Griffiths_-_We_Will_See_at_Least_$8,500_Gold.html

Buy These: Debt Ceiling Will Be Raised (NYSE:BAC) (NYSE:MS) (NYSE:GS) (NYSE:WFC)

Posted by Aadil on July 27, 2011 at 6:02pm

With the markets panicking over the possible default of the United States, stocks are scary but cheap. When the debt ceiling is raised, a big rally will take place. The key is to be in positions that will reward you with big profits. Ultimately, the debt ceiling will be increased by the time August 2nd hits. The politicians will not risk their future careers by letting it go past. This means it is currently one of the greatest short term buying opportunities in the stock market.

Bank of America Corporation (NYSE:BAC) has the chart and trading history to be a big mover on any deal. The daily chart shows a beautiful bullish consolidation pattern here at $9.80. The stock bottomed recently and ever since has been one of the strongest in the market. This retrace gives buyers a second chance to catch this lightning in a bottle.

The bank stocks have all been under pressure over the last six months. However, recently they have outperformed. This tells smart Wall Street players that the financial plays are the place to be when a debt ceiling extension is completed. Other great plays would also be Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS), Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE:GS) and Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC).

The Markets Control The Government...Just Watch (NYSE:SPY) (NASDAQ:AMZN) (NYSE:CVX) (NASDAQ:AAPL)

Posted by Aadil on July 27, 2011 at 4:37pm

The government is a puppet that the markets will ultimately control. This is the truth and the markets are starting to get angry today. As the debt ceiling talks continue to drag, the markets are starting to hit back. Early in the week, no agreement was a non event as there was a full week to maneuver. The markets had two small down days, dropping half a percent on the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (NYSE:SPY). Now Wednesday has arrived and there is less than a week to a possible default and downgrade of the United States debt rating. As the markets start to collapse, the government will come together. Wall Street always wins. This should have been evident back in 2008 and 2009. When big money starts losing, the big boys come out and call the President and representatives.

For those of you that may doubt the control the stock market has over the government, just remember in late 2008 when TARP was originally voted on by the politicians. It failed to pass and the markets collapsed. The politicians, feeling the heat from their massive blunder, voted again and passed TARP. This is the same thing that is going on now. The government is playing chicken with the markets and ultimately the stock market will win. A deal will be done.

The markets continue to trade lower, however, off their lows. Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) reported great earnings last night but that good news was not nearly enough to keep the Nasdaq from falling close to 2% at the lows. Everything from Chevron Corporation (NYSE:CVX) to Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) are getting pounded. The government will act soon. Just watch.

Till Debt Do Us Part (NYSE:AKS) (NYSE:NUE) (NYSE:X) (NYSE:CLF)

Posted by Aadil on July 27, 2011 at 3:46pm

One minute we hear that the politicians are close to a debt ceiling increase deal and then another minute we hear that they are not. The stock market only cares about certainty. This afternoon, we have seen small buy programs hit the stock market throughout the trading session only to find out it was simply a false rumor that caused the intra-day spike. This tells us that the stock market is just dying to pop higher on any debt ceiling deal announcement. Here is the problem, everyone is now waiting for a debt ceiling rally. Therefore, any debt ceiling rally that the markets get could simply be short lived. Remember the old stock market adage, when everyone expects the same thing rarely will it happen.

Traders are some of the smartest people around. For example, most good experienced traders can tell when the markets are setting up to rally or break down. It still amazes me how traders do not run the world, it would be a much better place. Right now, traders are looking for a debt deal to get done, if they were not these markets would be tanking lower. So we should expect a deal of some sort to get done very soon. The big question that we must ask is, will the debt deal be a sell the news event? This is very possible after a short term rally or bounce. How many times do we see a stock surge higher after an earnings report or positive news only to come back down to earth in the next few trading days. This happens very often when everyone is expecting the good news. Right now, there are so many traders and investors expecting a debt ceiling increase that the move could be short lived. Just think about it, how could raising the debt ceiling be good for the economy? When is debt accumulation no longer a positive for the stock market? These will be the next set of questions that will be asked by traders and investors after this debt deal is settled.

Traders should simply expect more volatility over the next few weeks. No one really knows how long a debt ceiling bounce will last. What we do know is, the more people that expect a massive rally to take place after the debt ceiling announcement the more crowded and short term that rally might be.

Traders should also take note of the weakness in many of the leading steel stocks today. Stocks such as U.S. Steel Corp.(NYSE:X), AK Steel Holdings Corp.(NYSE:AKS), and Nucor Corp.(NYSE:NUE) are getting crushed today. This is not a good sign for a strong economic outlook. These stocks are not holding up at all compared to the major stock indexes. Don't expect the debt ceiling deal rally to last too long.
