Daily Video Update: Welcome to September -- Game on!

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Tuesday, the 4th of September.

This week should be quite a week. We have Merkle, Monti and the ECB stepping up and coming into focus this week. ECB Bank Pres. Mario Draghi is quoted as saying that he is comfortable helping to buy three-year government bonds to help struggling nations help fund themselves.

But guess what, it all gets down to market perception. Perception is something that politicians have not quite mastered. It is important to understand traders perception and what traders expect will happen in the future.

The perception in the precious metal markets is indicating that inflation is on its way and both the price of silver and gold should climb climb substantially in the weeks and months ahead. Technically that is what the markets are also telling us.

As we mentioned earlier, it all gets down to perception.

Perception is a powerful market force and is difficult to measure and track on a chart. However, it is a force that must be reckoned with by traders and politicians everywhere.

Daily Video Update: Bernanke speaks …Thank goodness that's over!

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 31st of August.

Well, it's the last trading day of the month and judging by the volume this month, hasn't been a particularly great month for anyone. Looks like stocks are going to close out August with a 2% gain on the S&P 500. More interestingly the gold market is up over 4% for the month!

It seems as though the markets are saying in gold we trust and not Bernanke.

When everyone returns from their Labor Day weekend, we expect the markets to have more volume and activity. At the moment, August will go in the books as one of the lowest volume months ever!

When we return in September the market will be fixated on the ECB and what Mario Draghi and Europe may or may not do.

That is what I love about the markets, they are never boring.

To all our American members and readers, enjoy a safe and happy Labor Day.

Daily Video Update: The Dow falls to a three week low, while soybeans move to record highs!

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 30th of August.

The DOW moved to its lowest level in three weeks, creating a new red weekly Trade Triangle. MarketClub members have not been positive on this particular index, as our monthly Trade Triangle has remained staunchly in the red. Could this index be indicating something is amiss in the markets? The same time the DOW fell to a three week low, the S&P 500 moved below the psychological $1,400 support level.

Over in the commodity markets, soybeans jumped to all time highs and look to go even higher. All of this is contributing to higher costs and inflation pressures in the future. Gold continues to consolidate as we expected, but this is a market you want to be psychologically prepared to buy on any further weakness.

MarketClub TV for 8/29/12: September could be a killer month for stocks

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 29th of August.

In today's episode of MarketClub TV, we will be covering inflation and the bull market in the commodity sector. We will be examining crude oil more closely, given the fact that hurricane Isaac has now made landfall in Louisiana.

Why are the markets so quiet? Could September be a killer month? History has shown that September is the scariest month for Wall Street. Many traders remember September of 2008. Could this September be a repeat of the 2008 disaster? Europe and Ben Bernanke hold the keys to how September plays out.

We will be examining the nine major sectors and point out which ones are performing well, and which ones to avoid. We will be also looking at one index that is not performing the way it should be.

Daily Video Update: Draghi drops out of JH, volume dries to a trickle, while traders savor the last days of summer

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Tuesday, the 28th of August.

It is official, European Central Bank head Mario Draghi has called off his trip to the annual Jackson Hole conference of central bankers. What that means is anyone's guess, his official reason was "because of the heavy workload foreseen in the next few days." Got it!

Just a reminder we have very thin trading conditions at the moment on the big board. Many traders are still on vacation, we have a convention, a hurricane, Jackson Hole and all kinds of other distractions this week. In a nutshell the markets are moving on very thin volume which can sometimes cause distortions in market activity and price action.

The key word this week is : CAUTION
