About this blog

My Photo
I am not a financial advisor and my picks are not recomendations. I was a stock broker for 19 years and have followed and traded the markets from 1977 to present. This blog is not for everyone, it is written through my eyes and from the prespective of the experiences I have had watching and listening to the markets for the past 34 years. This blog is an attempt to track market trends and comment on the financial story. I believe that this story is pure fiction designed to direct the flow of money in the financial markets. The financial markets are a casino run by big government and big business to recycle the money created by government back to its "rightful" owners. I will spend little time commenting on the state of the economy because of the misdirection this story creates. I follow trends because it takes my opinions out of the game and focuses my attention on price direction. The indicators and trend calls I make are my best educated guesses based on my experience. This blog is a work in progress and from time to time I will attempt to upgrade it by making changes I think will help.

World bonds turning up as dollar US bonds sell off

News Highlights


The tide is changing with the dollar going out and the world currencies coming in. I believe this is the result of the most recent crisis resolution.  It is now the the Feds turn to print dollars and inflate the value of the Euro to bail out Europe. Stay tuned to the US debt crisis coming to you in a financial market near you. That of course will be a ways off but that is the apparent plan to solve the world debt crisis.  A game of ping pong with world currencies and sovereign debt.
