Melting down ...

Posted by btr Fri, 10 Oct 2008 02:18:00 GMT

The melt down continues. We have broken 9000 level. Looking back 10 years, the support level is around 7500.

Dow Jones Industrial Average is at oversold condition, but with current credit crisis still spreading and running its course, any technical bounce is possible but would not last long.

Unless you have significant cash positions, wait in sideline. Cash is king in this juncture.

Crash tomorrow???

Posted by btr Tue, 22 Jan 2008 05:57:00 GMT

US market was closed due to the MLK holiday but the other markets in the world had closed down a lot from 5 to 7%. Asia markets are down more than 5% the second day. How will the US market react? Unless it’s prolong decline, it might be a buying opportunity. But be carefuly the old saying “don’t catch the falling knife!”.

Dow Jones Industrial will break the 12,000 support for sure. Next support is 11,500.

Be careful tomorrow!

Printing money can't solve global debt problems, says legendary hedge fund investor Julian Robertson. Sadly, it's the overwhelming strategy being used today by global leaders, but it creates tremendous volatility in the market and doesn't get us any closer to fixing our problems. Unfortunately, as long as the printing presses around the world keep running, politicians will avoid the difficult decisions - like necessary cuts in spending - and take the easy way out rather than risk losing votes.
