Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Jeremy Lutz here with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 16th of January.

Concerns about the global economy are weighing on the markets after the World Bank cut its forecast for global economic growth in 2013.

The World Bank said it now expects the global economy to expand by 2.4 percent in 2013 compared to its June forecast for 3 percent growth. Estimates suggest the global economy grew 2.3 in 2012.

On a positive note, a report from the Federal Reserve showed a slightly bigger than expected increase in U.S. industrial production in the month of December.

The report showed that industrial production increased by 0.3 percent in December following a revised 1.0 percent jump in November. Economists had expected production to edge up by 0.2 percent. Continue reading "Today's Video Update: The Global Economy Comes Into Focus" →

New Video: We delve into the HERBALIFE Smackdown

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Thursday, the 10th of January.

There is a real smackdown going on in the stock of HERBALIFE (HLF). William Ackman, a major hedge fund manager, is accusing HERBALIFE of being nothing more than a pyramid scheme. That is a pretty serious charge about a public company. On the other side of the smackdown is Daniel Loeb, another big hedge fund manager, who is saying that the accusation is all bull crap. Who's right? We are not taking sides, but it looks to us like they are both talking their positions.

With that in mind, we decided to take a close look at HERBALIFE using our Trade Triangle technology and come to an unbiased opinion on this stock. In today's video, in addition to HERBALIFE and our normal rundown, we will be analyzing Ford Motor Company and Facebook, two very different companies. I think you will find today's video interesting and educational. Continue reading "New Video: We delve into the HERBALIFE Smackdown" →
