Market Talk- August 9th, 2017
August 9, 2017Only one big topic for Asian markets this morning and unfortunately, not a happy one. The uptick in geo-politics dominated everything today and unsurprisingly saw equities retreat, with a rally in gold and treasuries. The Nikkei fell the most of the cores with a decline of 1.3% and saw a strengthening of its currency down […]
Market Talk- August 7th, 2017
August 7, 2017Asia opened still with the buzz of Fridays surprizing good payrolls number. There were some concerns surrounding the sanctions the United Nations imposed on North Korea but these were quickly dismissed as the day wore-on. In Japan the Nikkei was not to sure in which direction to move and suffered a little ahead of lunch […]
American Imperialism – Why Congress Violates International Law
August 3, 2017We have a very serious problem with Congress. Their actions in far too many ways is displaying (1) a total disregard for international law, and (2) a clear arrogance that they will punish foreigners for not obeying US law outside the territorial jurisdiction of the United States. What if Germany passed a law to punish […]
Market Talk- July 31, 2017
July 31, 2017Energy, Industrials and Financials were the sectors leading the Hang Seng in todays trading and we highlight those because it closed up almost 1.3%; not bad for a Monday! Hang Seng helped much of these gains after better than expected results and the announcement of share buybacks. The core Shanghai also closed better (+0.65%) but […]
The Month-End Closing for July 2017
July 28, 2017The dollar correction for this Year from Political Hell is still in motion, but there is no major change in trend that is at hand. In the British pound, the Monthly Bullish Reversal stands at 13485 level on cash. In the Euro, the Monthly Bullish remains up at 12885 with a Minor Monthly Bullish at […]
The Refugee Crisis is now Causing Migration of Youth to America
July 27, 2017QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; I read your report that the politicians we have here in Europe think they need these refugees to pay future pensions. I read that the IMF has also confirmed your reporting. I understand you also meet with government. Do they ever listen to you that they are destroying our countries here in […]
Browder – Russia – Trump – Safra
July 26, 2017William Felix Browder is all over the news trying to play into the whole Russian/Trump affair muddling the waters. Browder founded Hermitage Capital to invest exclusively in Russian companies. Edmond Safra, the notorious banker who was the center of what was called the Money Plane, put in $25m of seed capital for Hermitage Capital and Safra’s Republic […]
Market Talk- July 21st, 2017
July 21, 2017We did eventually see a mixed close in US with the NASDAQ setting new gains but the late rally failed to convince Asian markets of the rally and having seen ECB unchanged, we saw Asian indices small down. It was a reasonably light session to close the week as main core markets drifted. The Nikkei […]
Market Talk- July 18th, 2017
July 18, 2017It was US news again that drove market direction for Asia after we heard late in the US time zone that two additional Republican’s opposed the healthcare bill. The DXY and US index futures were weaker on the news dragging much of Asian equities with them. In China the data for Home Prices released lower […]
