Daily Video Update: Did you know about the Himalayan Happiness Index?

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 6th of August.

Now we have chairman Ben Bernanke, the same "Helicopter Ben", quoting the Himalayan Happiness Index. Is it just me, or does this sound crazy to anyone else?

If that was not enough, Italian Prime Minister Monti in an article published in Der Spiegel magazine says the Eurozone is facing "psychological dissolution". What the heck does that mean?

I have to give Monti and Bernanke credit, that is the first time I've heard a Fed Chairman citing the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan Gross National Happiness Index and a politician using the phrase "psychological dissolution" in a sentence or anywhere else for that matter.

No matter what they say, the second half of the year should provide a silver lining for traders everywhere.

Daily Video Update: Positive jobs number boost the market today

Hello traders everywhere! Jeremy Lutz here with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 3rd of August.

The market is off to the races today on a surprisingly strong July jobs report. Will it last?

The Labor Department's monthly jobs report gave investors assurance that the U.S. economy may be doing better all on its own. U.S. employers added 163,000 jobs last month, a sharp turnaround following months of sluggish hiring.

Oil prices have also made a jump on the jobs news today.

Daily Video Update: Nothing but talk from Mario Draghi tanks the markets!

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Thursday, the 2nd of August.

As we mentioned on the MarketClub TV show yesterday, no word from the ECB or Mario Draghi spells doom and gloom for the markets. Talk is cheap and the market wants to see concrete action, not talk.

Remember Italy, Spain, Greece, and others owe a boat load of money. We do not believe there is any plan in action and politicians are just thinking of more and more ways to kick the can down the road.

We expect the market to be on the defensive for the balance of the week.

Now, let's analyze the major markets and stocks on the move using MarketClub's Trade Triangle Technology.

Daily Update: FED showdown at 2:15 today and it looks like Knight Capital pushed the wrong button!

Tune in tonight for the video presentation on MarketClub TV.

Hello MarketClub members everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 1st of August.

Happy first of August. We start off the new month with a potential game changer and a potential bang from the Fed today at 2:15. By the time you're reading this report, news will probably be out. I am not sure much is going to happen as the markets are fairly high considering what's going on in the rest of the world.

Pandemonium hit the floor the New York Stock Exchange first thing this morning as it would appear as though volume just jumped off the charts. For example, Molycorp was shown trading more than 5.7 million shares in the first 45 minutes of trading. That stock usually averages about 2.6 million shares daily. Did someone press the wrong button at Knight Capital? Continue reading "Daily Update: FED showdown at 2:15 today and it looks like Knight Capital pushed the wrong button!"

Daily Video Update: ECB, the FED, and the Fiscal Cliff OMG

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

Will they or won't they? That is the question on every trader's mind these days. Will the ECB ride in and save the Euro? Will Ben Bernanke and the FED come in with another round of quantitative easing? We are not sure, and we don't think anyone on this side of the pond or in Europe, is sure either.

Will ECB Chairman Mario Draghi really follow through and enact concrete measures to avert the European crisis? Regardless of any actions the ECB takes, Italy, Greece, and Spain all owe a boat load of money. How are they ever going to pay it back?

While these uncertain times are full of questions, one thing is for sure, the markets will eventually tell us which way the decision is going. Continue reading "Daily Video Update: ECB, the FED, and the Fiscal Cliff OMG"
