I started a thread this morning in the "off topics" room...see China sell off. When I woke up and saw that China had lost 8%, I wanted to let you all know. The key is to watch how the dollar trades against the yen. Down from 120 to 118. |

This isn't a crash. Just wait. This will get far worse. I've been in puts on the market in various stocks for the last two weeks. Sweet redemption today. The VIX has been so low for so long, it just shows everyone who believed this goldilocks nonsense is crazy...The housing market will be getting worse as well. Median prices were down today yet the rah rah media wants to point to increased sales. LMAO, yeah b/c prices are falling.

Bounced back today, but it was a yo-yo ride.
Seems that every day, US debt increases to those that float us. One billion to the Saudis and Japanese, and another to the Chinese. Today was for bargain hunters. Good for them. Things won't get right until the yen floats against the dollar. A two billion a day deficit will catch up to the US sooner or later. It's what happens when we import more than we export. It will probably take a few years to recitfy. Devaluation of the dollar could also happen pretty soon, when the costs of the current wars are considered. To me, I'm watching...as I don't have a clear picture, but it's getting clearer. |

not surprised at all that china had their problems, i read the time article the other day about all the speculation over there. and of course it will have affects on other markets, china is way too big to ignore. maybe this will jolt some folks over there back to reality, and temper future buying.
just hope the 'correction' over the next few days, and weeks, isn't as bad as some are saying it could be.

I hope people do flee. I aint. There is so much upside in so many areas... there is some huge technology waiting in the wings. This kind of thing always happens. US manufacturing expanded in Feb. and now we are down only 15...
The real lesson in the US stockmarket has a much more global nature to it than in the past. And that is good. For those of you hoping for a complete crash, I dont think we are going to have another black October in March. If we do, we start over, no biggie. |

I hope for a strong US economy. I wasn't paying attention to the China market a few weeks ago when it jumped in valuation by 15%. When that market "corrected", it had an effect on other markets, including ours. My guess is that will take two or three months for things to settle down. Yes, there are bargains to be had, and strengths in some sectors. Here's an article about this week's events: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/huff-w...02/wall-street |

I only follow gold and other metals regarding oil futures. To me, the yen-dollar exchange rate seems to be a better indicator. To each their own. Seems that lots of investors are going to the bond market and waiting for things to settle. This week should be choppy. One report I heard said it could take six months for things to stabilize. I'm not "doom and gloom" at this point, just cautious. I'm watching as of now. Some bargains are there, as prices got dragged down along with others that really needed correction. btw...the links I post are just for information purposes. I'm not looking to debate, just to bring views to assist understanding. |
