I was a little lost about what to say in this blog this week. I mean, how many times can you say the economy stinks, the stock market is overvalued, and conditions are ripe for gold? But the truth is nothing much has changed. There was little new in the news this week, and what...

Since little has changed in the stock market this week, I’ll take this blog in a slightly different direction. I was drawn to three Wall Street Journal articles this week, entitled: Workers Saving Too Little to Retire Health Insurers Warn on Premiums Older Households Loading Up on Debt The first article reports that 57% of...

I almost choked on my tongue while reading a recent Wall Street Journal article entitled, Keeping Up with the Dow Joneses. The author, Justin Lahart, began that article by describing the Dow Jones Industrial Average as an “arbitrary collection” of stocks that is “arcanely constructed.” Charles Dow must be rolling over in his grave to think...

The Dow Jones Industrial Average continues to retrace the 15-51 Indicator’s steps seven months in arrears. The laggard that it is, the Dow Average should peak in value around mid April 2013, and then start a steady and prolonged decline thereafter.

Well-known stock market indexes continued to suck low-information investors into the lion’s den this week. While the Dow Average failed to move again this week, it remains extremely elevated at the 14,000 mark, which is a market multiple the Dow hasn’t experienced since 2006, and before that 1999 – the housing boom and tech boom, respectively. Sorry...

You may recall that stock market strength flattened out three consecutive weeks in July of last year (see: Strength is Flattening). The 15-51i reached its peak two months later in September, and then swiftly began...

The major theme investor’s must take note of this week is one of global recession. Japan’s GDP (Gross Domestic Product) contracted for a third straight quarter and market activity in the Euro-Zone plunged at its fastest rate since the ’08 crash. Germany, the EU’s largest market economy, fell at an annual pace of 2.3% while...

The most important market activity to note came from the commodity market this week. Gasoline prices shot up by a significant 14 cents per gallon in the five-day work week – and with a wintery-bluster wreaking havoc in a frigid northeast, home heating oil is poised to rise. Higher energy prices affect almost every required...

Feb 02, 2013 The Dow Jones Industrial Average leaped over the 14,000 mark on more fluff-and-puff from the Wall Street establishment – and its trusted ally, the mass media propaganda machine. This is exemplified most clearly by CNBC’s Jim Cramer, who said last night (February 1, 2013) on his primetime show, “If your stock portfolio...

The Bizarro World continued in money and finance this week with the Dow Jones Industrial Average posting another 2% gain. The Average is up 8% so for this year while Strength continued to slide. The 15-51 Indicator, a portfolio built with superior 15-51 construction and designed to produce above-average market returns, once again moved in an opposite...
