Where Few Dare To Tread
When the Fed can no longer keep interest rates down, the U.S. will have to face its demons.

by Bill Fox, Senior Bonds Analyst

What options do we have regarding U.S. deficits? President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City gave three of them in his February 16 speech: doing nothing, inflating our way out of at least some of the debt... but there was also a third option.

Robert Prechter on Herding and Markets' "Irony and Paradox"
To anyone new to socionomics, the stock market is saturated with paradox.

by Editorial Staff
2/9/2010 4:45:00 PM

"Have you ever watched a dog interact with its owner? The dog repeatedly looks at the owner, taking cues constantly. The owner is the leader, and the dog is a pack animal alert for every cue of what the owner wants it to do. Participants in the stock market are doing something similar. They constantly watch their fellows, alert for every clue of what they will do next. The difference is that there is no leader. The crowd is the perceived leader, but it comprises nothing but followers. When there is no leader to set the course, the herd cues only off itself, making the mood of the herd the only factor directing its actions."

EUR/USD Breaks Below Major Price Point
Just when everyone thought the U.S. dollar was a goner, it rebounds!

by Vadim Pokhlebkin

On January 27, the EUR/USD (exchange rate between the euro and U.S. dollar and the most widely trade forex pair) slipped below $1.40 for the first time in six months. In other words, the dollar, considered by most analysts all but doomed a short while ago, now stands at a 6-month high against its main competitor. Ironic? Paradoxical? You bet. Here's more on that from Robert Prechter.

Prechter on T-Bonds, THEN and NOW
Yes, Interest Rates DO Drive the Fed

by Robert Folsom
6/16/2009 4:45:00 PM

That was in 2002. Jump ahead to 2008 and early 2009 -- we've seen the gargantuan size of the U.S. government's bailout schemes, and watched the Federal Reserve's unprecedented steps to keep interest rates low. Clearly the time had come for Prechter to focus again on government debt...

How To Survive AND Prosper During Deflation

by Nico Isaac
2/25/2009 10:15:00 AM
Over the last two years, the mainstream financial experts have fired more shots from their bear-market-fighting "bazookas" than Rambo. Yet through it all, the raging grizzly has absorbed every bailout blow and rate-cut bomb with unflinching ease, growing ever more powerful along the way. Fact is, the only way to survive and prosper during deflation is to stop FIGHTING the bear, and start befriending it....

What If You Hold an Auction, and Nobody Comes?

by Susan C. Walker
2/25/2008 1:45:00 PM

The U.S. government held an auction of its 30-year Treasury bonds today, but hardly anyone wanted to buy them at the anticipated 4.41% yield. They ended up going at 4.449%. One dealer called it a "massive boycott."

The Elliott Wave Principle is a detailed description of how financial markets behave. The description reveals that mass psychology swings from pessimism to optimism and back in a natural sequence, creating specific Elliott wave patterns in price movements. Each pattern has implications regarding the position of the market within its overall progression, past, present and future. The purpose of Elliott Wave International’s market-oriented publications is to outline the progress of markets in terms of the Wave Principle and to educate interested parties in the successful application of the Wave Principle. While a course of conduct regarding investments can be formulated from such application of the Wave Principle, at no time will Elliott Wave International make specific recommendations for any specific person, and at no time may a reader, caller or viewer be justified in inferring that any such advice is intended. Investing carries risk of losses, and trading futures or options is especially risky because these instruments are highly leveraged, and traders can lose more than their initial margin funds. Information provided by Elliott Wave International is expressed in good faith, but it is not guaranteed. The market service that never makes mistakes does not exist. Long-term success trading or investing in the markets demands recognition of the fact that error and uncertainty are part of any effort to assess future probabilities. Please ask your broker or your advisor to explain all risks to you before making any trading and investing decisions.
