Thanks Naqvi, I'm dipping my tows in. 20% SP500, 20% DOW indices and 60% bonds/cash. I think the market is ready to go past 1350 on the SP500 and float towards 1380-1390. After that is anyones guess. Brad
ReplyDeleteSorry, thats "dipping my toes in". Brad

ReplyDeleteThanks
Yes.

Greece got its bailout. What next?
ReplyDeleteI think the Greece bailout will simply continue to inch up the current market rally - much like TARP did. This is all well and good for now (don't fight the government trend, try to take advantage of it), but the governments of the world, in my view, have created another, and potentially larger bubble to replace the real estate bubble. The "Asset Bubble". By injecting the huge amount liquidity into the markets that the US and Europeans have, assisted by cheap money (low interest rates), companies have been hoarding cash and inflating their assets as a defensive maneuver to hedge against the market and consumer. Assets, in my view, are overstated on the balance sheets of way to many companies. This improper/false asset realignment to current market conditions, which fundamentally created its own quasi growth because of the cheap money and excessive liquidity, could spell hardship down the road when the easy money and government intervention is turned off/stopped. Growth has already started to slow in the US market without government intervention and will probably continue to slow. China easing its monetary policy this last week will help some companies and governments that already trading with China, but don't stick your head in the sand, we could fall back into another recession if not worse. I personally hope this doesn’t happen, but one must remain objective. Any comments or ovservations from the board? Brad
ReplyDeleteThanks Brad. Excellent comments. I agree with you analysis, and the fact that we have entered another bubble because the real economic growth (excluding debt growth) is negligible. However, like all bubbles you never know how high it will go before bursting. Therefore, I would say that trend is your friend (like your statement). Buy the dips, till the next 8/4 test to the downside has been completed. And then think about shorting the market.
ReplyDeleteNice post dear. Thank for sharing it Purchasing in China & Logistics help in China
