ABOUT US
The Fantastic Four
Our Wall St analysis looks at the S&P 500, the Dow Industrials and Transports as well as the NASDAQ, Russell 2000, SOX, Interest Rate Market and Utilities.
While we mainly look at the S&P 500 as the market leader on a daily basis, we also study the inter relationship between the different indexes on a weekly basis and where we think they are going.
Precious Metals are important for collectors, hedging against adversity and as an indicator of inflation. Gold and silver tend to go up when the dollar falls, but not always.
Oil as a natural resource, while still important, will eventually give way to other sources of energy such as solar, wave, wind and hydrothermal. Projections for peak oil by 2010 were unfounded. New technologies have brought more oil to the market creating a glut. Oil prices are also dollar sensitive as well as still sensitive to Middle East tension.
The dollar is important as a falling dollar makes exports cheaper while imports tend to get dearer and vice versa. When the stock market goes down in a major bear move, the dollar tends to appreciate taking gold down with it.
