Investors Seek Safe Haven In Gold For the past few weeks, the stock market has been red across the board. Many commodities have also fallen. Whatever happened to predictions of crude oil to top $150 a barrel? It now trades near $90 a barrel. Where do you put your money when almost everything seems to be going down? Many look to gold as a safe-haven. And although it has rallied in recent weeks due to uncertainty in the stock market... |

Stock Market And Gold Divergence The stock market plunged, while gold rallied in a safe-haven bid after Congress rejected Treasury Secretary Paulson’s proposed $700 billion financial bailout package on Monday, September 29. While I think these trends will reverse in the short-term once some sort of relief package passes, in my opinion, the economy is weak and the stock market remains on shaky ground. I think we will continue to... |

Weekly Market Recap And Outlook This morning’s dismal news in the financial sector is stealing the news headlines, along with Hurricane Ike--certainly been watched by energy traders. Both the stock index and crude oil futures markets are tumbling in early trade, and the question is, where is the bottom? The environment is not for the risk-averse. It’s going to be choppy and sloppy. The markets have been unwinding risk and if... |
|
Euro Under Pressure The financial sector continues to get hit, and the fallout is spreading globally. After the U.S. government outlined plans at the start of the week to bail out mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, woes at Lehman Bros dealt the markets another blow. Lehman, heavily exposed to troubled real-estate investments and seeing its share price steadily sink, announced a fiscal third-quarter loss of $... |

Why The S&P 500 Should Be Strangled During the entire month of August, the stock market basically did nothing. It’s been up, it’s been down, but really hasn’t gone anywhere. The S&P 500 is in the same place now as it was back in July. What do you do when a market doesn’t want to go anywhere? You strangle it!... |

Coping With New Commodity Trends ... |

Thirsty Corn Setting Up For Bounce Corn futures are ticking higher this morning, as a late start to planting and dry August weather could be setting up for a fall bounce. From a technical point of view, the chart pattern looks set up for a move above the 50-day moving average, which should put December corn futures at $6.53 a bushel. I see a possible bounce to $7.... |

Mid-Year Reversals In Commodities The July 4 holiday weekend, often a watershed period in the grain markets, has proven to be a turning point for just about all commodity futures this year. Daily charts in corn, coffee, cocoa, sugar, and natural gas all show important multi-year peaks – and I mean peaks. Obviously, the second half of 2008 is unfolding in a dramatically different environment than the first half of the year. The r... |
|
Weekly Market Recap And Outlook Last week volatility was the name of the game as we saw commodities back down, while the stock market and U.S. dollar gained ground. While there is considerable uncertainty about whether underlying economic fundamentals can support continued stock market gains later this year, traders currently are focusing on the positive aspects of relatively lower crude oil prices and a favorable US dollar that... |
|
Gold Looking Oversold Gold has seen a dramatic decline along with other commodities over the past month, and I think it might be getting a bit oversold. Gold had dropped about 12 percent amid an eight-session losing streak. It finally managed to regain some lost ground Wednesday, August 13, as NYMEX December gold futures closed up $16.90 at $831.50 an ounce.... |
|
Call Option Spreads Provide Opportunities In Commodities During the next 6-9 months, I believe sugar and natural gas will move substantially higher. However, since commodity markets can be choppy, I don’t recommend buying the futures on these commodities outright. Rather, I would recommend call option spreads that involve a downside risk parameter, which allows a trader to know the risk upon entering into the trade.... |

Treasury And Euro Short-Term Trading Strategies There are some important events this week for financial market participants, namely interest rate policy meetings both in the U.S. and in the Eurozone, and U.S. Treasury auctions. I'd like to offer a few short-term trading ideas for the Treasury and euro currency markets.... |
|
Is The Bottom Nearing For The U.S. Dollar? The latest data on weekly unemployment claims and gross domestic product has pushed both the stock market and the U.S. dollar down, but I have a slight inclination to believe the dollar will see a rebound before year-end. A Federal Reserve policy meeting is coming up next week, and the market could be volatile. A straddle in the Dollar Index Futures would be a good strategy to play dollar volatili... |
|
Stocks Still Bearish; Commodities Bullish The markets have seen some big trend shifts this month, but I see them as temporary. I remain bearish stocks for now, and bullish commodities, particularly crude oil, corn and natural gas.... |
|
Consider Corn Call Spread After peaking at record highs about a month ago, corn has been under pressure. But as the growing season wears on and hotter weather is upon us, it seems a bounce is likely, and a bull call spread is way to play that trend with defined risk.... |
|
Euro Poised For Breakout The euro seems poised to make a breakout against the U.S. dollar, but the big question is which direction. It could go either way as we have global inflation, and at the same time, economic weakness impacting the currencies. We think a strangle is a good strategy traders can consider, this being the case.... |
|
Bears Get Coffee Buzz Coffee futures have been on the decline like many other commodities recently, and are trading at a seven-week low. This market is starting to consolidate, but I anticipate a storm of bearish news, and a breakdown in December contract below $1.35 a pound. The contract is now trading near $1.3920, while the front-month September contract was at $1.3540.... |
|
Weakness In Commodities Present Buying Opportunities Some are claiming that the commodity bull run is finally over, but I’m a little skeptical. Picking tops in markets can be a dangerous way to trade. The steep drop in crude oil prices and weakness in other commodities such as gold and sugar in mid-July are leading some to believe prices will continue to ease. I think this presents a buying opportunity for a variety of commodity markets.... |
|
Sugar Break Offers Bullish Opportunity Many commodities have seen pullbacks over the past week, but these types of corrections can bring opportunities for traders wanting to establish bullish positions at cheaper levels.... |
|
Australian Dollar Near 25-Year High The Australian dollar reached a 25-year high vs. the U.S. dollar, and I think the outlook remains solid for the currency. ... |
|
Gold Getting Its Luster Back Gold has rallied over $60 since last week and had a technical breakout with a close above $950 an ounce on Friday July 11, 2008. I believe gold will continue to run higher, and recommend buying dips. I’m looking for a longer-term, big upside move. I can see gold trading above $1,000 an ounce in the long-term, but believe it will encounter some short-term resistance between $990 and $1,000.... |
|
Stock Indexes Head Into Bear Territory Both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 fell to near two-year lows the week of July 7, 2008, and have now declined more than 20 percent off their peaks. Welcome to the bear market! My advice given the way things look now is to sell rallies until we something major change.... |
|
Using Pivot Points To Determine Support & Resistance Pivot point trading is a method day-traders use to calculate support and resistance levels for a specific market. Most simply put, a pivot point is the level at which the market changes direction during the day. Pivot points have been a popular trading strategy among floor traders for years. I used pivot points daily in over 10 years of trading on the floor of the Chicago Board of Trade and now he... |

Buy Natural Gas On Price Break Commodities faced widespread declines on Monday, July 7, 2008, in one of the largest selloffs we’ve seen since March. Not only did a 2.7 percent fall in crude oil make headlines, but other markets fell sharply, including gold and silver, grains, sugar, and even beef on ideas of a potential decline in demand. We had a number of bearish fundamental factors prompting the declines, including a stren... |
|
Futures Forecast For July Many of the big-picture themes holding back the economy from earlier this year still haven’t been resolved, and I don’t see them being resolved in July either. So it could be another difficult month for stock market investors, and cash-strapped consumers. Let’s take a big picture view of the markets and economic environment for the month of July as we head into the second half of the year.... |
|
Consider Long-Term Silver Options Trade Inflation has become a big issue both here and abroad, and doesn’t appear to be going away any time soon. Metals are considered to be a hedge against inflation, and at this time, I’m recommending a very long-term silver options strategy as it also appears the U.S. dollar will remain weak. ... |
