Volume remains an enigma but really shouldn't. Last week Trim Tabs made the stunning report that investors, mostly retail, during just the first 11 months of 2011 put $889 billion into checking accounts. This is money under the mattress. Why is this happening? No trust unfortunately and Wall Street, the NYSE and other enablers have made trading a casino for program trading algos, hedge funds Read More »

BOSTON (TheStreet) -- Morningstar's nomination of five fund-management teams for its annual award comes just in time for investors torn between leaving the equity markets or preparing for what may be a rally next year.

NEW YORK (ETF Expert) -- The prospects for corporate earnings haven't mattered much to the markets in 2011. Instead, European debt news drives stocks dramatically higher or lower.

There wasn't much follow-through from Tuesday's outsized rally. Bulls were able to mount an afternoon charge from 1% declines in the DJIA and SPX to close basically even on the day. Things weren't so good for the NASDAQ where the index closed 1% lower on Oracle's (ORCL) poor earnings report. In tech land poor earnings and guidance are becoming more common.  Meanwhile Yahoo (YHOO) is co Read More »

Pursche, who is also president of Gary Goldberg & Co., has not only laid out his expectations for next year with 10 predictions. He also plans to revisit the list next year "and either pillory myself, or emboldened, make 10 more." Read More »

Italy's government passed an austerity budget which soothed investors concerns so stocks rallied once again. In fact, after a grueling week marked by extraordinarily high volatility again bulls were able to eke-out gains for the week.

A couple of really dumb moves highlight the massive sell-off seen in equity markets Tuesday. The first came from Greece where Prime Minister Papandreou after committing to a deal with the EU had a change of heart and wants a public referendum. That's nice but clearly blindsided markets and his EU brethren given this wasn't part of the deal. The concern is banks have agreed to a voluntary hair Read More »

I suppose you could just suggest not much happened the morning after the large eurozone is "fixed" rally. But, there is some sober second thoughts especially including the idea it will take months to implement "the plan" even as we don't know the details. The positive is markets held gains despite being significantly short-term overbought. We like our friend "Chucky the Consumer You Can't K Read More »

The EU completed its summit (sort of) but put off until November the plan's details. From what we've seen thus far the plan is insufficient in scope, but there are hints China and/or Brazil will add some funds. The latter is yet to be determined but, the mere idea of this, caused stocks to rally once more. If you Googled any euro zone rescue issue you'd find many different "drop dead" dates ov Read More »

It didn't take much Tuesday to get a short-squeeze underway. Markets were at bear market levels then until a rumor, passing as a news story from FT, got the bullish HFT algos going. That was one of the most spectacular 30 minute short-squeezes in a long time. The momentum from that combined with more "we're gonna do something" chatter from the euro zone kept bullish momentum going most of the wee Read More »

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Shaky market action weighed on the exchange traded product industry over the past month. According to the flow data compiled by the National Stock Exchange, total ETF/ETN assets dipped by $90 billion in September, closing out the month at $972 billion.

It's hard to make sense of current market behavior. What is still driving markets lower is a lack of conviction about euro zone "fixes" combined with sharply lower commodity prices. Much of the latter may have to do with Bank of America (BAC) strategist David Cui suggesting China growth could come in below 7%. For them, that would qualify as a "hard landing". This may be why important commoditi Read More »

Investors aren't too happy with conditions overall and the image above plainly sums up the mood. If you stop and think about it you might conclude that we're just continuing the 2008 recession. Central planners and politicians captive to the election cycles haven't dealt with conditions forthrightly. Phony, ineffective and now corrupt stimulus packages haven't helped. ... Read More »

A Bronx cheer was given to Bernanke's speech and Obama's subsequent presentation Thursday. It doesn't help a credible terror alert was issued for NYC and DC as 9/11 is remembered.
