Abrak Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Here are some charts.... First the bad news - it seems that stock market returns are inversely related to the savings ratio..... It also looks rather overbought (but admittedly it isnt a great chart as it only goes back a few years.... Now for the good news. As always the average punter has been doing the wrong thing. In the US there have been US$209bn of inflows into bond funds and US$15bn into equity funds this year. The reason, of course is they are driven by historic returns and over the last 10 years bonds have given a 3.6% real return and equities up to February -4.0%. But this is just a cycle over the long term equities should give better return than bonds because they have more risk. If they didnt nobody would invest in them. So if you look at the 10 year return in the stock market, even adjust the returns since February, now would seem to be still a low risk time to invest.....Again I do have a problem with chart in that it sort of implies that the average return on equities including dividends is 12.5% nominal which is inherently too high. Profits would have to be taking and ever increasing percentage of GDP. So its possible that sub average returns continue until the average reaches a more realistic level. And as bonds (by which I mean USTs) have found strong performance it is then followed by weakness. Over the last 50 years anytime USTs have gained around 20% or more it is followed by negative returns within 2 years. What essentially has been going on in the US is that they have been derisking their personal balance sheets. Repaying loans investing in bonds, saving at zirp and avoiding anything with high risk. Of course, for the last 6 months it has been totally the wrong thing to do - the game was to buy risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midas Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Midas cant reply to your madoff satement at he is in jail. Come on bud do some home work, ,MADOFF INVESTORS WILLL NEVER GET THEIR MONEY BACK. Get it? never. let it sink in Midas before you reply. Your implying the markets are a Ponzi scheme. Seriously dont mind the banter but cant reply to plain silly posting anymore. will miss you though dam_n you made me look good Banks are old news champ, already over a 100 last week mostly small banks. Priced in already. Go to the back of the class with your dunce hat on I think this definition fits the " stock market " perfectly ........remember Abrak's description ( and you can' t say to him he knows nothing ) - " The greater fool theory " A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment operation that pays returns to investors from their own money or money paid by subsequent investors rather than from any actual profit earned.

nakachalet Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 (edited) alright.... who needs a couple of thousands dollars extra on monday, january 2, 2009? the attachment prediction is not mine, warn you.... so you are forewarned before placing your trades to consult with qualified financial advisors or brokers of your own choice, alright? this gura is rather well endowed from incomes contributed from long term subscribers who pay monthly and expensively to receive his advice.... he trades live everyday and only about 20% of the time that i would trade against his seasoned advices.... i rather trade my own indicators.... lol his advice for monday is attached for your pleasure..... do not bet your nest egg on it.... we earn our incomes based on longevity and averages.... not on one trade or one short deal.... lol any successful traders will tell you this same axiom.... happy and profitable trading to all.... and remember too, this gura as good as he is--he is like you and i--100% human and is therefore also prone to make multiple mistakes.... and his suggestion for monday might be just that.... another mistake.... lol he is going short at 10072 and will be going short again at 9902.... i have to confess.... i do not possess any indicator that could predict the trading patterns that far in advance.... my best set of indicators will only tell me whether a particular market is moving up or moving down.... just about 3 to 5 seconds before the market changes.... from then on it is another set of indicators that will more often than not, predict if or when or whether or not, i should hold the trade.... no, i do not have a nightly fixed profit target.... i am not that smart to be able to foretell the volatile market conditions.... i just trade the market as it leads me and allows me to follow its fluidity.... good luck and good fortune to all....

zorro1 Posted November 2, 2009 Author Share Posted November 2, 2009 hang seng is detaching from the dow my point before being will the asx follow dow or hang seng. I have a feeling.... shang hai composite VERY impressive as well Just looking at the big picture fellas. Interesting times great for day trading got bored with a 3500 point rise to be honest, nice to see some adrenalin back in the markets. To those who have won so far congrats.

lannarebirth Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Guys Im no chartist Thats why Im a memeber of a chartists website where the experts live. We are at a milestone right now according the pros with a "Golden Cross" appearing on the dow chart. This week will be make or break time and if the charts are correct we could see some serious money start to flow back into the markets. If that's the case the last 6 months will look like beer money investment. Lets see what happens by next Friday night. The below is Cut n Paste.the Dow and sp500 have both made a milestone this week by having the golden cross over. As I've read on finical sense the 50 day EMA line has crossed above the 200 day EMA line, signalling the end of the bear run. Is that possible in this negative environment? So I checked that I'm on my charting system and sure enough that did occur on the 12/13th of August! Is this the point where scared investors finally tip their money in? Is this where long term investors are reluctant to sell? "Long-term crossovers carry more weight than short-term events. The Golden Cross represents a major shift from the bears to the bulls. It triggers when the 50-day average breaks above the 200-day average. Conversely, the Death Cross restores bear power when the 50-day falls back beneath the 200-day. The 200-day average becomes major resistance after the 50-day average http://www.tradingday.com/c/tatuto/movinga...crossovers.html OK, sorry, I thought that was you.

lannarebirth Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 flying you jinxed it but we up 12 again only half time , im off to bed now lanna was referring to this chart dow I never refer to the Dow, except for when I'm encouraging people not to watch it. I watch the S&P 500. I'm not a Bull or a Bear but I would note it's hitting downside targets more quickly than I would have thought, is not retracing much, and breadth stinks.

Abrak Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 What sort of chart is that, it has gone nowhere and is up 11% on the year which must qualify as one of the worst performing stockmarkets in the world. Where's the one Zorro trades that (yawn) goes up 100 points everyday. I mean on top of that the dollars lost 10%, so quite remarkably you have made nothing at all.

zorro1 Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 on the way up I bought only penny stock with good fundamentals and more importantly had just finished succesfull cap raisings . These were hammered the hardest in the GFC and figured they would fly. Being cashed up is the most important factor re penny stock. Never pay more than the instos they always sell it down to cap price you can scroll back and see my choices, I do believe I was the only one to post them, funny that.. eg Pen was 11c pre gfc, fell below 2c at 4 c there was a cap raising at 2.8 great company still hold, multi bagger MII cap raising buy the chineses !!! 10 mill $ bought at 6.1 still hold still search for swing trades after cap raise. will leave the charts for the bears, they been around the longest and have the best charts you will see, kind of ironic me thinks Also a basic chart to show an exit out of the markets. Got to have a plan, my previous chart re the dow gives me an exit point. I couldn't give a toss about the 11% gain that Lannaberth mentions. My gains have been over 100% on quite a few stock , even rio is 100% gain from its low of course Have had my failures which I tend to sell off for a loss and not hang on to dead wood, red is dead thats my motto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
