This is what a chart of the S&P 500 looks like this week (Feb. 6-10)" ... If you saw this chart on Thursday (Feb. 9), would there have been anything to give you a clue that Friday's vertical drop would erase most of the week's gains?

By Nico Isaac

As the leading US economists look ahead to the future, they see one glaring obstacle standing in the way to lasting recovery: the still, defunct real estate market.

As I write, the wheels on one of the most dangerous stock market myths go round and round in the mainstream finanical press. SEE this news item from January 12: "A drop in oil prices and strong bond auctions in Europe drove US stocks to a slightly higher close today." (Irish Examiner) The problem is, there is no consistent inverse correlation between oil prices and stock prices. It's time for this particular notion to meet its maker.

Hong Kong is one of the world's most vibrant financial centers, yet its name is also synonymous with lethal influenza. It's the city where the H5N1 avian flu was discovered 15 years ago. You probably knew that. But did you know that the H5N1 discovery -- and every major Hong Kong flu outbreak since then -- came at or near a low in the Hang Seng stock index? Few people realize this...

Most people's thinking simply defaults to physics when analyzing financial events. But when we take the time to examine the results of applying that model, we find that it is not useful either for predicting or explaining market behavior.

Stock Market "Sings" Sinatra
Prechter's new Elliott Wave Theorist explores the fascinating social mood behind a 20th century music icon

Why do some individuals -- say, an actor, or singer, or politician -- enjoy great success, even as others with as much (or more) talent do not? And why do some of the talented, hard-working individuals stay at it for years with little result -- until suddenly their star starts to shine? You've probably pondered these questions before. Here's what you may have concluded: talent, perseverance, but mainly a lot of dumb luck -- that's the "right mix." But actually, something more than dumb luck is indeed at work...

We have already seen that economic performance, earnings and inflation do not necessarily coincide with movements in apparently related financial markets. Is there any evidence that dramatic news events that make headlines, such as terrorist attacks, political events, wars, crises or any such events are causal to stock market movement?
