Daily Video Update: Consumer confidence jumps to a seven month high

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Tuesday, the 25th of September.

Let me start off by saying thank you to Jeremy, who has been providing the daily update to you while I was cruising the Gulf of Maine in a 112-year-old three-masted schooner.

What has happened since I was enjoying my cruising days? Not a lot I'm afraid, the markets continue to consolidate and regroup after their recent gains. There have been no major trend changes since I was away, which is good.

Looking across the pond at Europe, I see the same story and the back-and-forth, kicking the can down the road continues. It looks as though the Euro has pulled back from its bull run, however the trend continues to be positive.

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

Daily Video Update: Spain Looks to Secure Bailout

Hello traders everywhere! Jeremy Lutz here with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 21st of September.

Stocks have continued to perform well over the course of the trading day today. While buying interest has remained relatively subdued, the markets continue to benefit from news out of Europe.

That news of course is that European Union officials are working behind the scenes to pave the way for a new Spanish rescue program and unlimited bond buying by the European Central Bank. Will this actually happen? Or is just a another smoke screen coming out of Europe?

Crude Oil is continuing to struggle and I noticed a powerful technical indicator in Gold today that we'll discuss.

Daily Video Update: Europe and corporate earnings are weighing on the markets

Hello traders everywhere! Jeremy Lutz here with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 17th of September.

Looks like it's the same ole news coming out of Europe.

A meeting of European Union finance ministers in Cyprus over the weekend resulted in a deadlock over how the region plans to combat the debt crisis, with leaders unable to work past their differences on a banking union, the role of the European Central Bank and the conditions of bailout requests.

Corporate earnings are also weighing on the markets today. Earnings are expected to fall short of expectations in the third quarter and then stage a a fairly dramatic turnaround the rest of this year. Some analysts believe the rebound will last into 2013.

Now, let’s go to the charts and our Trade Triangles and see what’s happening.

Every Success,

Daily Video Update: It's déjà vu all over again, as the FED throws the dollar under the bus

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 14th of September.

The older I get, the more I realize that there are no new fiscal ideas. The Fed is basically recycling an old inflationary idea to try and get us out of the current mess. They are cloaking this in job creation, but what it tells me is that the US is in a far more serious economic condition than possibly any other time in history, including the great depression.

As for reducing the unemployment levels, that is going to be a much more difficult challenge as unemployment is going to remain stubbornly high. We are losing manufacturing jobs in the US and everything is turning or has turned to high tech and the Internet.

Take a company like Facebook, it runs on just three or four thousand employees. How are the Facebook's, Amazon's, and Google's of the world going to reduce unemployment? They cannot reduce their labor force and skill sets change in the blink of a nano second. A labor force that is uneducated, not online or too old, is going to have a tough time in the new online world. I know this sounds harsh, but that's the reality of today.

Back to the markets, as we go into this weekend it could be an excellent time to look for new 52-week highs in commodities, stocks, and any other market that is making a 52-week high.

Our Trade Triangles have been telling you that the equity markets and commodity markets were headed higher and that inflation was on the way for quite some time.

I will be out cruising in the Gulf of Maine aboard a three masted schooner for the next four days and will be pretty much out of touch. Jeremy will be doing the daily update for me until I return. Have a great weekend and every success trading these inflationary markets.
