Stock Market Now Through January

Wall-StreetHuman behavior is highly predictable. Dogs and cats have it down pat. Animals do not define their owners with euphemisms. They respond to them exactly as they are and know exactly what to expect. Human beings define their masters with all sorts of lofty euphemisms so they are completely confounded by what happens. You have no masters? That is because you define them as representatives, regardless of the fact that you serve them.

There are plans for the stock market. There is virtually no chance the averages will close down for the year, even if indicators lead you to expect that it will. Following an up year, you can expect a sell off in the first few days of January 2016 and then a break out to the upside which will be billed as the next up leg of this amazing bull market. Never mind that the breadth may be miserable and international events and circumstances will be miserable.

To accomplish these things, all it takes is all of the money in the world. The central banks have that and even more if they need it. All investors have is what they have earned.

How is such a thing possible? It is easy. All it takes is for the overwhelming majority of world citizens to believe the Federal Reserve is necessary, Open Market Committee members are honest people and that all that is being done is for the public good.

The truth is that Wall Street has hired government to enrich them and that is what is happening. It is as simple as that. The end, of course, is the complete destruction of the economy. That takes a long time so it is still open season on anyone who works for a living.

Americans will figure this out and rebel horribly but the odds of that happening in the next 30 days is real slim. I am forecasting dismal results for anyone trying to short this market. You are right about what you see but having all of the money in the world is an advantage that is hard to overcome. Donald Trump knows these things, so why is he not speaking up? Trump may be a refreshing figure but his bid for the presidency is self serving as all such efforts are. He will speak up only if it is to his benefit to do so.

A Day of Awakening Coming Soon

82698598As it is, hardly anyone is overly concerned about the declining stock market. There will probably be a day of awakening when it becomes clear we are in a bear market and we are no where near the bottom. At that point fear will be ushered in.

What will constitute a day of awakening? I am thinking it will be a day when there is a huge sell off in the last hour.  A day when averages and key stocks are down the limit just prior to the close. This could happen on any given day.

It could be any day that is down 3% or more as long as the decline accelerates in the last hour, especially the last half hour.The Grazin’ is Good, by Curbside Jimmy.

U.S. Day Of Rage

Notice that the “US Day Of Rage” on Wall Street is not being covered by Fox News, CNN, or for that matter, news organizations in general. The Drudge Page is not even reporting on this. The last time I remember this kind of organized news blackout was during the time TARP was being crammed down the American people’s throat.
This is in keeping with the agenda of the economic trinity of corporate elitists, big government and big media. These giants simply do not cross on another.
I wonder what the consequences are for reporting on this event?

Student Loan Moan

I can’t stand it. I mean when college students can’t get jobs because their degrees have no market value. Watch this video. You’ll love it.

No Honest Markets

There is not one honest market in the world today. Dishonest markets always fail. I am still convinced that the bottom is going to drop out of the stock market. I am equally convinced that I cannot determine when. The best approach I have is to take short positions in a portfolio of stocks which are already in down trends. Close any positions which go up rather than down and rotate the money into different stocks showing weakness.
First Solar (FSLR) is one of my short positions. It also went against me last week. If FSLR closes above the red trendline, most likely I will get out with a loss and open a position in weaker stock. The whole idea is to stay short the weakest stocks in the market. In my opinion, there are no safe places to invest money other than cash. Shorting a portfolio of stocks is certainly not safe. There is a chance of getting a substantial return. For me it Is worth the risk.
