Friday Markets

I am sitting here writing this post the markets closed up today but globally the sell signals are still happening. I am going make it really short that the global market selling will slow down. You will begin to see next Monday a larger course correction going upswing gaining about 100 points. This will bring hope to investors who lost big in the markets earlier this week. It's a roller coaster ride to the bottom last week going downhill hitting a low of 588 or more on the broad market indexes. What a week for investors who didn't learn anything from my blog corner of the world. The smart readers tuning into my blog used my information gain traction in the downturn making money. The other poor saps on both Well Street and Main Street lost their shirts going bankrupt. It pays to be informed when you really want to make money in a bear market. I want to apologize to my readers this week for not posting on my regular Monday Wednesday,Friday schedule. I normally do post here but I am busy this week so I haven't been doing it as I normally do. Hope everyone has a nice weekend and read my post Monday.

Friday Market Wrap Up

Well, today we see that my predictions of mud slides in the markets actually turned into a larger amount of downhill vertical free fall this morning. I predicted that the bears are going to go cracked up crazy selling everything they have trying to get out the exit door with the herd all getting crushed in the process. I am right as usual with the Dow Jones posting current data at 141.15 minus dive in the pit head first. Then you'll have to add like I predicted the NASDAQ,Standards and Poors etc all hitting the accelerator going down to pit with it. Yup, you think that's bad at the time of writing this blog post just look at the global markets they all have followed suit going average from 100 to 535 points doing a verified vertical nose dive. You got to bailout everyone the crazy bears are driving drunk drunk wanting to bailout..Oh wait a minute that right I am a contrarian I just remembered.. I got to thinking for a moment about all my emotional state with the mountain of losses in my positions in my portfolio.. I am so emotional I panicked like the rest of the herd running for the exit door crushing everyone on the way out. No. I just regained composed mental state now I am thinking rational here about all the good deals that this crazy crash is offering me. While everyone is popping Rolaids and drinking whiskey running away feeling pain I am looking at all the cheap deals in stocks,bonds and other investment vehicles available this morning. Your losses folks that your getting punished with in the markets I am busy in buying frenzy for me raking in profit like it's cotton candy. I am buying cheap and selling it on the margin shorting the stocks, bonds ETF etc making money. The more important longer term dividend payers I am buying at frenzy sweeping cheap beaten down investments into my portfolios. While the globe is saying how much everything sucks in the investment world I am filled with hot joy laughing all my way to the bank. I guess you get my strategy I love a market drop when it happens like this today. I am getting wealthy on other poor suckers misery index where the markets do mud slides downhill.. I can't wait for it to drop 300 or 500 points then I will increase my positions to becoming the Warren Buffett of market wealth.. Let's ride today with me in the driver seat while you'll be singing and whistling Dixie meanwhile everyone else is got out their crying towel..

Have a Awesome Day..

Mid Week Markets

Good morning all you investors filled with fear and shedding those tears on the down hill slope..I hope you're putting on your skiing equipment correctly because we've achieved free fall plummet on the markets today at opening of the bell for trading. The Dow Jones Industrial is up in heavy trading with a market cap at present of 17511.34 as I am writing this piece. That's the good news first but now here is the crying towel for everyone portfolios. The Dow and Nasdaq both reports down 35.84 on average below the belt which is certainly causing jangled nerves on investors who worrying about their pension and retirement plans. Well, lets see how I am doing so far with my predictions on market analysis this week? Ok..Let's recap I said we are going to have a bright beginning on Monday but watch out for the Bears who are going to run away with the cake as the week continues. I hate to say the truth but you know I am going to say it anyway, that hope you've got a whole roll of Rolaids for your nervous stomach this week. Put on the skiing skills your going to need it were going downhill folks with the markets this week. Better consider investment in bonds and safe haven investments until we get a course correction. It's only going to get worse before the course correction happens this month. Usually this correction happens on a Monday or Tuesday towards beginning of the month but August is really showing  a lot of market volume with volatility below the belt line underpins. To put it into perspective it's horrible for the normal investor who is charting any gains out of the markets this month. Then you get people like me who are controlled contrarians who love to watch the markets tank. Time to get in the market when everyone else is saying how awful everything is doing bailout. While people are losing their shirts on skiing downhill not me I am cleaning up on cheap beaten down stocks. You see being a contrarian is different you gotta know when to pull the buy triggers to get the good deals. You have to chart the buy signals on the markets when you see the the spike then you see the crisis set in when the spider bite hurts at the peak and the stock is out of gas, then you see the revving engine doing free fall in the stock sinking like the Titanic. When you see this on a Bears market you pull the triggers and get out your broom to start sweeping in the cheap sweet broken stocks. You can even do this with short term gains in ETF and repeat the same succession in bonds too. Button down investment isn't easy but then being a sensible investor takes years of research combined with sometimes getting killed on your portfolio positions to really realize you'll have to do it right. I always harp on doing your research carefully using all your characteristic charting data. You really need to develop a model of your positions that create a policy that puts you in the drivers seat. How do you do this you asking me? Taking your chart data for all your investment positions and then start making lifecycle charts for all the investments you presently own. I will tell you when your finished doing it compare it to your investment plan then the shock factor will set it realizing how many mistakes your making in your portfolio. I suggest at this point you'll start making changes by dumping underpaid and under performing stocks, bonds in your portfolio. You still need to have the usually core important diverse dividend paying stocks that do the heavy lifting keeping you adding money to your portfolio. It's critical to consider which diverse dividend payers are making sufficient money to keep them too. By following these simple investment principles you'll guarantee a 80 20 success ratio gains in your investments. You'll be the leader in your positions and overall portfolio meanwhile everyone else is a stupid sucker who didn't do their homework. Don't paste sucker on your forehead do everything right and you'll beat both the bulls and bears at their own game on the markets.

Have a Blessed Day..

Monday Stock Report

Hello my business and investor friends I have some interesting news to be happy about that I want to share it with all of you. Remember my prediction last week about a upward market movement? Well  here it is today just as I said it would happen with the behavior of the big boys of herd running hot and heavy investing in cheaper market stocks. Yes, Monday really is at 2:30pm today a bright picture with most all the indexes posting a whopping 35 point gain on all US markets. This is certainly really important to note considering last week we all got bludgeoned to a pulp as the Dow,NASDAQ and S And P took a seriously bad nose dive on bad economic news. The Treasury T-Bill and other government both short and long term notes are changed to a higher increase standard. Then you add another chink in the financial armor when the Fed decided to add another 1.5 percentage points to the discount lending rate. This just fueled the fire last week to send the shivers of woes through major market investors causing the herd to change course with a bundle of jangled nerves. Yup folks visions of another 100 plus point crash sent everyone running for the exit door to bailing out. Not so this week I think this is a course correction that will certainly last longer with more underarm support front overseas investors who win see a good opportunity to buy cheaper technology beaten down stocks. Don't forget that last week those same stocks were seriously undervalued giving many options for contrarian investors like myself to buy in big beaten down stock. The old adage is still true that if you want to make money on your portfolio then buy cheap below the belt and sell above the neckline is the way to do it. True there is many ways to make money on your portfolio positions but not all of them work to your advantage. You always got to do common sense investment by doing your careful research looking at McD and underpinned link lines. It's very important to look at stock curves to see if the stock your charting is going upward or going down like the Titanic in the cesspool tank..Note that if you've done your projection charts correct in combination with current market data you'll be better in a position to pull the buy trigger when stock is a good buy. I always find this works for me when involved in investment in a controversy type stock or bond. Thinking carefully about your short term and long term portfolio plan before you ever put your hard earned money into the markets is a important thing to do. Create a investment plan for not short and long term will help you achieve your stated goals. I get regular questions and comments asking for advice on how and where to correctly invest your financial net worth. The answer is you have to decide in the beginning what you want to achieve and go pursuing it in the positions your holding. Now to what you'll see this week?? I think looking at my charting here it's really conclusive that this week will see a few bumps in the road. Market investors will react to news coming from the political front including some economic news that will cause Wall Street to reach for the container of Rolaids to soothe upset stomach nerves. We will achieve a plateau on Wednesday with another next level upswing but by Friday you'll see markets level out to a steady 15 point average above the baseline. So what's going to decide this factor will be good economic numbers from the real estate with a sharp increase in new home sales. You will see additional important information from housing sector with a report on first time home buyers upside data spurring growth. Let's see what type of victory were going to sing at the end of business close bell ring on the Dow Jones Friday afternoon.

Have a Great Day.

Economic News

Well last week was admittedly a real big flop on blogging due to feeling illness. This put my ordinary writing on this blog back to the stone age which didn't help my normal readers stay informed about stock markets and business. Today my readers here I am going to do a lot of market analysis giving you the necessary details for my predictions for the beginning of this week. Yes, there is a lot of new trends in the market for this for this week and month that I you want to know. The first thing I want everyone to know about there's a market downswing last week is that its a short term trend. Today is Monday it's 12:15 p.m you're seeing a total reversal in the markets from last week with certain gains being posted on technology sector. Looking at current underpinnings popular stocks show more volatility due to economic worries which is driving everything earlier this week week. As this week goes on you will see greater market stability happen as more technology companies get there stock earnings reports that will bring some good news . First quarter earnings reports for major companies in America shows a mild increase and overall better  profitability than last year. Year 2014 earnings reports where a disaster for corporate America with major companies losing big on the Dow Jones combined with being  clobbered by weakening of the Dollar. You add a larger problem with cheap imports from China and Malaysia etc this drove American business to a all time low in corporate earnings. This year so far is significantly different with more important upside to smile about in American business. You see it in every sector of business posting growth that is above the neckline on all available current data which certainly is good news for bankers,investors and CEO of major companies. I think your going to see more volume in the major markets because the economy is getting better this year. Yes, your going see continued volatile data make investors and business running away temporarily from investing. This is a shorter trend because the factor that drives this is the banks and the Federal Reserve. Let's face it last year credit was scarce to obtain and banks weren't into lending for new business start ups in year 2014. Totally different this year most businesses are making a profit and corporate overhead is down making a better favorable climate for business. So the current direction we are heading American business and the Dow Jones will definitely profit more this month on the short term. The long haul is not written yet so we will have to see what happens with big business in the third quarter this year.

Have a Great Day.

Business, Stock Market Updates

Good morning, my awesome inspired readers of this blog, I hope were all excited to get out there making some big green bucks. Well without further a do I am hitting the pavement running this morning with some news and predictions to report here. First piece of the financial picture is that this morning the market snapshot isn't favored for the buyer of stocks. Looking at the markets everyone is down by a large points volume. Wall Street still continues a selling binge as it did last week with both large institution and corporate investors bailing out of the markets. The reason for this sell signal on the markets is in advance of corporate tech companies reports for this quarter. Technology company earnings for this quarter are down which is also causing the herd to feel insecure about stock future,ETF and mainstream technology stocks. The added with the underpinnings on the markets still shows a shaky downhill curve on market data charts. This all contributes to investors continue to move their portfolios to safety havens like T Bills government bonds and shorting cheap stocks to make money. This may sound like a prescription for a roll of. Rolaids but when you've looked at the charting characteristics for this early week you'll understand why people are bailing out. The woes persist from last week with more bad news in corporate earnings still on it's way. You combine this change with the dollar up 1.64 against most all the other global currencies except China this is causing flat economic GDP performance on the index. Market speculators are pushing profits into other safety havens to avoid a sudden market contortion that will hurt their long term investments. You add it up this week is pretty much going to continue the same with radical shifting of wealth into a safety zone. This is what I see happen so far and I don't see that going to change until maybe after corporate profit reports come out. When all this happens you might see some market indexes upswing but it won't be a radical climb given the overall pressure of the woes in the current economy.

Let's all become Billionaires!!

Important Friday News

The markets are about to close for this week with some important news to report to my investment and business readership I am not one to delay this new trend in the markets today so here's the nuts and bolts. We started this week with the markets overall under the benchmark of the neckline on most of the indexes. Yes, some bright spots happened this week but after those faded into the background Wall Street players went on a selling binge. The reason for the sell signals is very clear with a lot of major stocks losing their position being down average 20 points. Meanwhile small time investors chose to put their money into the short term bonds market waiting to see which way the indexes are moving. Most investors playing it safe this week chosen important investment vehicles like ETF and T Bills included to avoid market down shifting. The dollar posted some gains against the Yen,Dauchemark,Pound and other global currency this week. This contributed to a slow reversal mid week on some stocks but overall it's not enough to change the below average stocks at close of trading bell Friday today. What'll happen next week I am convinced by looking at the charts data is hot markets upward movement with a lot of roses to take advantage of next week. Your going to see a sunny side up of the markets underpinnings which will contribute to a above the neckline performance. Large investors will buy heavy in the telecom,oil,gas,utilities and cheap underwater stocks to drive the markets to a rally about 80 points by middle week. This is going to be driven by other important news about the presidential campaign and other hot economic data will further the cheers on the market rally. This is what I see for next weeks market prolonged market upswing. Let's see if I am right and have a great weekend.

Have a Blessed Day..

Market Investment Watching

Well I gotta toot my horn because again my prediction about the markets was really accurate. Let's rewind to last week when I said that the Dow Jones world be down about 20 points on the spectrum index. The NASDAQ,Russell 500,1000 and other indexes globally would react to a Wall Street herd mentality running away from the markets with selling frenzy  Looking at the numbers you could easily see that after vacation people got serious about major investment strategy. The shift in the markets reached an all time low on points percentage on Thursday. You witnessed a slight upward in the markets closing out the week. The entire underpinnings effectively changed and capped the performance on major markets on Wall Street by Friday's closing bell.The bright spots in the economic news is that specific upscale  companies like Boeing,Microsoft,Google posted gains which helped the Dow climb out of some of hole from earlier in the week. The NASDAQ reached a reactive point by posting a slightly better positive gains of about 10 points above the neckline. So, here it is a new beginning week for investors, so what do we have to look forward to on the charting of the markets? This is seriously a no brainer folks looking at Wall Street what things are changing the markets this week.You have a global nuclear deal with Iran,OPEC oil price changes for light sweet crude,finance ministers of oil producing nations agreement on production quotas,new real estate  number in America,Federal SEC commissioner appointment which are involved in the overall effects for the startup of this week. Well since I am the great market prognostic guru blogger. This is my prediction for how this week is going to efficiently change the broader market industry indexes. Ready set go. .. I think that this week is going be a market upward momentum with posted gains in certain economic sectors like banking for example. This has recently been hard hit by a change in federal credit oversight. Then looking at the changes that are a result of  the Tarp banking bailouts within the last few years combined with  problems of new bank regulations the markets have seen seriously a decline. You can expect to see real estate to have continued growth which will help boost the overall economy. Looking at another bridge to focus on is the GDP (gross domestic product) which measures overall wealth combined with  production outputs for American companies. You will see a continuing constraint on the GDP because of American total increase in debt to China. The focus in the markets underpinning you will see that the trade deficit will have a definite impact with certain industrialized nations. It's definitely  a definition factor on major investors minds who are the money movers. These are institutional and large corporate investment companies combined with leading businesses like Berkshire Hathaway. Watching what and who they invest in at a specific time will give you valuable chart data that you should pay attention to as you consider where to properly invest your hard earned money. Always use your chart data to plot your positions in the markets to insure the herd isn't suddenly going to change in a radical direction against you. Being a smart investor takes work with a keen eye on what the underpinnings are doing for specific indexes your charting daily. Wisdom in a portfolio is a process of knowledge of which stocks and bonds are good investments based on peaks troughs combined with bottoms of the markers. You'll need to make the right decision on when to go in big or bailout before you'll lose your entire portfolio.  By  following my advice you'll build a strong winning combination into your portfolio that will continue adding more money to your portfolio over both a short and long term time period.

Have a Great day...

Tuesday Market Watch

Well by now everyone has enjoyed their holiday with family, friends and now gone back this early week  to the world of work.. Some interesting news to report here is the SEC regulatory agency is considering a new commissioner to head the financial markets oversight body. For anyone who doesn't know what the SEC is its the Security and Exchange Commission which regulates all financial stocks,bonds,Brokers,Brokerage houses etc on Wall Street and private equity investment. This regulator can change everything that is traded on all markets including the Dow Jones and other lesser known markets like Russell 500 etc.. Now to other important news for today market investors ate still feeling the effects of weekend holiday celebration. You see that people are now diving into their portfolios ready to jump into  the market with good investment deals available today.  This means good deals will spur broader market interest and investment with large institutional investment leading the herd combined with other big money investors following suite. You look at the news wires about Wall Street  and global chart data which always moves the markets up or down Certainly you can see today more investors are going short on stocks,bonds because of economic numbers from Office of Management and Budget and, Federal Reserve. Market jitters still are persistent but as the week continues the market will show a. significant gain overall based on good news coming from real estate sector,banking and news about important corporate profits from major companies. Look for this to add a major upside in the markets later this week by as much as 20 point or more fueled by investor confidence. This is how I see the markets will react later this week based on current data today.

Have a Great day...

July Fourth Holiday

So given that this is how our market system works paying attention to every detail will help you avoid being a victim of the change. You will be better able to predict when the herd of leading investors chooses a different direction so that your not facing the problem of your  portfolio sagging in the negative..

Have a Great Day.

Holiday Weekend Coming

Well, most people woke up this morning to a new day realizing that their is a celebration of our countries freedom this weekend. Yes, it's almost here with July 4th parades, fireworks displays,cookouts, combined with general relaxation with family and friends. I am writing this Thursday afternoon to inform everyone to have a happy holiday weekend. Their is definitely defiant market swing this week as a result of the Federal Reserve changes in the discount rates. This governs many different economic factors that are important to know which I will address in a few minutes. The economic GDP this quarter is showing slow growth with a tracking and projected growth of about 2.8 on the index of leading indicators. The stock market tickers does tell the story with investors feeling the pressure from sluggishness in the economy overall.  The bright spot is leading companies like Boeing,Apple,IBM,Bank America Corp.,and other competitive global businesses are reporting new posted above average earnings growth for this quarter. A broad economic overview shows the trade deficit with our international partners closing the gap so that America is in better shape compared to our industrial overseas partners like Germany,Japan,England,France etc. The jobs situation is still a problem with more people having their jobs phased out or outsourced to other foreign competitors. Some of the economic problems in America is due a change from manufacturing to a high technology combined with  services a based economy. This trend doesn't seem to be showing any signs of slowing for the immediate future. When you are looking at how the market reaction is on a chart basis you can clearly see the economic picture in clear focus. We do have some winners in business with certainly the same in markets in technology stocks but overall things are still not a rosy picture for business and investment this quarter. Looking ahead on projected gains for next quarter we will have to see what impact of improvements the economy will do..
You can look for the next quarter to be mixed results with some corporate giants continuing to post gains while other parts of the economy remain at a stable 2.1 percent of GDP output.  This reflects a drop stock profitability in combination with a increase in a return to higher inflation for the next fiscal quarter. The Federal Reserve will lower the discount rates another full 1 point or maybe more in a effort to jump start the economy. This will certainly help the economy to begin growth at a larger rate of GDP overall for next quarter including the rest of the year..

Have a Great Day..

Blogging Again. .

I have decided to return to writing again with a focus on writing good articles about economics,business and stock portfolios investment advice. So look for lots of new hard hitting market,business advice with solid professional ideas from a real world of business and investment knowledge.. Just remember folks to follow me here combined with  checking back frequently to see what new posts and powerful ideas I have for business and market direction that will make you wallet growth happen..

Getting Wealthy
  Is
Much Easier With Knowledge.

Suitcase Economics

I know that i often hear it from business people that the rate of business industry growth is not what it used to be a decade or two decades ago. This kind of ideas comes from a decade of shrinking corporate profits combined with a large scale shift in buying practices by the consumer. If the answer is to look at your ROI then you see many changes in your bottom line profit margin. So many businesses have to stress speed access to a product or service compared to actual face value of the items itself. This is caused many managers and business owners to change how they advertise,market and overall sales of products or services. Adding to the flexible climate shift  you have all of your competition is outsourcing a lot of product development and manufacturing into foreign countries. This really is putting American business into a newly unknown territory where business is forced to sell their products in a global market. This definitely has major market share plus for business growth but a definition of who you are and what you do is much harder to get in front of the prospective customers. The research speaks for itself in many trade magazines like Forbes who know that it's hard to get your customer to buy from your business because your product,service and message is being drowned out by global competitors. This is why you see less Mom and Pop businesses still open operating in the century we currently live. The factor of globalization has almost wiped out small business in America with a change toward larger retail and global corporate giants able to sell their products on a mass scale. The bigger killer is cheap imports from China,Singapore and Malaysia which reduce the overall quality standards on a market share. By drowning the markets with cheaper foreign goods it's making American businesses who used to enjoy supremacy scramble for the share of whatever markets are available. American businesses are taking the brunt of global changes with more need to address the trade imbalance that still exists with our wealthy partners worldwide. We, that is American business is the engine of creative and ingenuity need to get more involved with lifting up our quality and standards again a a leader in the world..

Retirement Planning

I recently was talking to a long term friend of mine about retirement  finances in older age. He exclaimed all the virtues of being very wealthy having more than a hundred thousand dollars to his name in retirement accounts. Well, this really started me thinking that their must be lots of average working people have very little knowledge about investments and retirement planning. First of all only about 10 percent of the total population of American people have a excessive  amount of financial wealth. This puts my friends in a higher income and saving level bracket than most of America. They both have amassed a larger amount of riches due to their income and investment levels over about 17 years. Their are many in working America that live with paychecks that don't know what it is to be financially wealthy.  These are the people who struggle to live and generally don't have a retirement savings in a plan of their choice.  I know that many people try their best to live with what little they have financially so due to being poor they never plan for retirement.. Planning for you and your spouses retirement is a important thing to do so that your setup later in life for after retirement expenses. Any smart investment planner will tell you that you'll need to put away about a third to half of your mutual married lifetime income into these accounts. Your choice of accounts should reflect a broad spectrum of investments into CD,Roth IRA,Stocks,Bonds,Mutual Funds and other investment tools This will achieve a good retirement package being a married couple for your golden years ahead. Financial planning should include expected life changes after retirement. Some examples of items to be considered are hospital medical expenses,doctors,down sizing of your home by selling it, changes in your portfolios value. These expenses i have listed can make you quickly deplete your lifetime savings and put your retirement plan into a tail spin. Always consider what you as a married couple want to mutually achieve for your later years by describing it in detail on paper. When you've agreed to the full plan then start looking for the right investment tools that fit the plan. You should build into your married retirement plan a certain cushion of extra money for items like your favorite golf course,travel on a cruise ship and exotic adventures to Belize,Cancun beaches etc. Think very hard together trying to anticipate even the most basic expenses like the costs food,home, the costs of keeping your cars registered,insured. If your doing everything right together you'll enjoy a great retirement lifestyle filled with long years of happiness and exciting adventure in your later golden years of life.

Have a Great Day..

New Ideas. .

Well i have to admit i haven't been here in unfortunately a long time so i lost probably most of my loyal readers.. Sometimes it takes time to get back into things if you been away from it for a while. I just scanned through all my old post log to my amazement this blog started in 2009.. I cannot believe it really this long i have been writing this business and financial blog. I know that at one point i had hit a milestone in global readership with surpassing the ten thousand marker. I figure that i must have done things right at the time to gather that much readership which doesn't come overnight. I had to unfortunately quit doing this blog and mostly everything else due to health problems which i am happy to report i am feeling increasingly better.. Doctors say if i keep up with my walking and self empowerment program with my health i will be in a great position to be one of the business movers and shakers of the world.. I love my doctors enthusiasm for overcoming difficult goals but in part how can i disagree as he knows more about his field than i do and the same is reciprocal about my being a business expert. So i thought i would do what the doctors told me which is to slowly go back to working full time which includes all forms of work including writing. Things are changing so i am feeling good enough to write again which is actually a good thing since i am a workaholic. So look for a gradual return to this blog as i a written media forum for intelligent business articles that make sense from a business standpoint.. Have a fantastic day today with your business peers and family..

Christmas. .

I want to wish everyone a very merry Christmas to all my readers..

Business Solutions

Business Solutions To Community Progress

Let’s take a look at who in the business world supports community development.  Many businesses are very active in promoting housing and work-based programs that increase both the awareness and financial support of social community programs. These programs such as Habitat For Humanity, which builds homes for the under privileged, and the United Way Homes for Life Program are all good examples of business and community members working together.

By bringing together these needed resources and the financial backing of the more wealthy companies we build a partnership to solve community problems in both urban areas and the rural population too. Businesses have more freedom to be create change and innovation than what our government is able to do.

The innovators combined with the ceo s of all size companies contribute a combined total of 83 percent of all donations to community sponsored reinvestment programs such as the ones previously listed and many more. Forbes Magazine ranks Fortune 500 list companies that share and contribute the most to community reinvestment and new development by a ladder profile. Companies like McDonalds, Starbucks, Panera Bread, Exxon Mobil, CVS Pharmacy, Shaw’s Supermarkets and many others contribute more per capital in donations and sponsorships than all the others out there.

Most Chambers of Commerce and local and national business groups are heavy involved in civic development and support of charity and community reinvestment. When business and civic organizations join together they are better able to address and manage problems both at the local and national level when there is a need to be filled.

The engine of business is the leaders and problem solvers who can put forward both financial and intellectual resources to get the job done and solve community problems from a more efficient and stable platform than can most any other vehicle that is available.

Looking at cooperative ventures with people of all types shows how businesses can be the catalyst for great changes in a community. They can offer a fresh opportunity for outreach to community leaders and provide more suggestions and solve problems that otherwise would be left to the back burner or never tackled at all. Partnership in a world of everyday change means that you can have both businesses and civic organizations working together to achieve common goals to solve issues that benefit both sides.

Doing this helps us achieve a better community through private business outsourcing, in partnership with civic groups. You are then able to grow a very nice urban or rural landscape that is both aesthetic and functional while also creating new jobs and homes where more people will want to stay and raise their families for all future generation to come. Business is always the solution and will continue to be that functional piece that drives innovative ideas in a inter connected world that we currently live in this millennium.. Businesses are the ones who reach out to better persons lives in concert with government and civic organizations, so that we can grow a better future for everyone.

Turkey Day

Well it's nice to enjoy the holiday season which i certainly did with my lifetime friends Dave and Liz who served up great food,football and lots of laughs Thursday evening. I did however just remember that i forgot my responsibility to you the readers of this blog to post here on Turkey day. So for all the reading public of this blog i am sorry for my being both lazy and late to posting to here. Hope everyone had a great thanksgiving and when Monday comes it is time to go back to work.
Have a great Saturday today..

Synergy

I know that many of you who read this blog will scratch their head trying to figure out what exactly this word means to a business. The facts i will explain in just a few minutes but before you go wandering off to read something else. Actually synergy in business is really important to know all about it since it deals with your companies front door. You can have great customer service and other parts of your business but if you don't know your synergy your bound to failure even before you have any kind of financial success. Knowingly ignorant of your customers demographics can limit your business in it's ability to provide the right products and services that the buyer wants. If you do your research regularly to find out who will prospectively buy your products based on demographics then you have a leg up on the competition. Pretty simple to understand what that all means but surprisingly a lot of business people fail to use it or don't know about it. Just opening and operating a business is not enough to make you a successful entrepreneur. I know that sounds harsh but being in business is not a nine to five job as it is a career instead to be self employment. You make the right decades of decisions in business that make you a recognized success or you flop and go to the unemployment line.. So choose your synergy well which will make you a long term success in business is the best thing to do..

Credit Crunch

Well i think it certainly is interesting that my favorite business channel Bloomberg has missed the boat on the credit problem. It used to be that business in America could borrow cheap money to expand with new products or services. These companies shared one conman theme which is easy access to credit financing without the headache of higher interest rates. Lots of things have changed to where banks and lenders have greatly tightened the noose on businesses obtaining loans. This has come as a result of the Federal Reserve printing more money, fewer loans and climbing interest rates.  You add in the Federal Reserve mismanagement of monetary policy which has caused banks to consolidate or go under water on their balance sheets. This all packages up to be that business in America has gone overseas to other countries more favorable tax and credit structure. This is why we have a growing unemployment in the nations workforce because business is being overtaxed,over regulated and credit availability has dropped to a all time low. If you want to make American business function to full capacity you have to fix several problems which are making it harder to do business in this country. The credit problem is choking the life of American business which is the blood of America itself. Yesterday I was watching the nations debt crisis playing out over the mainstream news channels and i thought what about the businesses of America don't they count for something. After all we are the engine that makes America great both large and small business vendors. If you empower business in America then you can solve many of the economic and political problems that this country is currently facing.

Market Rally..

I know that most people would be more willing to bailout on a market that hands down this year a loser. I am sure that some will sit in their office chair laughing at my following comments. You see that i am a contrarian market investor who has consistently beaten the market with a three to one market average. I am not bragging here but while most of the herd has run out the door losing their portfolios i made money. The facts speak for themselves while everyone bailed out on bad stocks and junk bonds i bought in at every bottom curve in the market. I have made myself a growing income including  certian circle of business people. I have used this same power investment strategy in business,stocks and real estate to beat the competition meanwhile they failed. The fact that some people in my business have objections and skepticism have quickly discovered that my formula works. They are shocked that they never tried this to make money on their own. The fact is I am revealing exciting information that most corporate gurus know about.  The rest of mainstream people don't know this why you have a huge difference between rich and poor is information. So if you have the information and the will to carry it out you can rise from regular blue collar job to Gulf Stream jet money bags.. Food for thought for those people who don't believe you can make a better life for yourself and your family..

Return to Blog..

Well it certainly is not a happy thing for me to have to temporary be absent from this blog here again this year. The good news is with some new equipment upgrade it is easier now to manage doing this for you the readership. I am going to continue where i left off early this year with more financial news and predictions . So I am going back to my style that everyone loves which is to be the economic pundit.. Begin looking for new exclusive exciting articles and viewpoints about business,stock investment and of course financial items of interest. Have a great day..

My Stock Picks For This Coming Week..

Hospital Visit

I apologize for not posting here to my loyal readers but I have been in the hospital..I just got out of the hospital Wednesday evening and hopefully I am getting well sooner..
Thanks for your continued support of this blog and my businesses..

Cheap Imports

Good morning I hope that everyone is ready to make money today.. I got to thinking a lot about how global trade effects America versus our foreign competition. I know you think this means I am going to rant on some tangent about our competition. Truth is our foreign competition mostly is beating us at our own game in all the markets worldwide. Trade is a hot button issue which is important to every business no matter how big or small you are in the pond. The problem is that our competition is beating us by production of cheaper products that they are flooding the market with all them worldwide. OK. You say well it's alright that China combined with Europe have a sizeable lead but we make good products that the world wants to buy. This is the problem we have not figured out how to market our products that will compete with these powerful trade pacts and countries like China and Germany. My thought is we need to rethink how we market our products with a clear message to our customers worldwide showing them the advantages of buying American. If you do make quality products which we definately do that here in America then your buyers shouldn't be buying from your competition. When we can as American business fix this problem so that cheaper products made in China,Malaysia and Germany don't beat our products on the world markets. I think then we will begin to end the massive trade deficit and imbalance that currently exits which is hurting our economy.

Market Predictions

Good morning to all my faithful readers of this blog. Well I hooked another anonymous scoop this day which I want to share with you. You see I am a research fanatic when it involves both business and investment. This time I pulled off a really interesting find when looking over the chart data this morning.. Most of the best financial gurus missed this one by a long shot but I found it. So here it is while the market is on a rocket ship ride past 14 thousand and could go much higher this year. The little known thing I found shows a very steep drop coming before mid year of June. So while it is great to ride the wave of green in your portfolio you better have a bottle of tums soon because the market is going do a reverse course correction. Many investors are going to get hurt by this crash when it hits a bottom of about 500 points.. This is not a flash crash but instead a permanent correction in the market due to poor home sales,weakness in the economy and climbing interest rates. So just invest in a broad range of both stocks and bonds that will weather this kind of market correction. By doing this you will limit your market risk which you need to do so you bullet proof your portfolio and your current investments..

Work Break

This is the most emotional for your employees the three mandatory half hour break times every day. The thing that really as a employer you can do to improvement of this time useage is to offer more options. You see any smart business man knows that in order to keep employees happy you have to add more benefits.These benefits can be a video game system,free lunch and other things that will increase employee loyalty. Giving never hurts when your trying to build a business and your employees are a important part of your business just as much as your customers. So the next time your management teams comes to you to say you need to make changes think about addition of some of these corporate important improvements.

News Channel ..

Yup, it is your financial guru and resident critical tactical business analyst. I just want to rave this morning over my newest ventures with my news channel. You see I have done it again a empire builder.. Oh No!! I can hear the criticism already from other business people and Wall Street investment analysts. You see I have quietly been creating a global news service which is growing in popularity. The facts speaks for themselves according to social media and Google demographic data which I track regularly. Norton News Corporation is on track to become a mainstream media outlet ..Yes, you heard me right this is a global news and information service that will eventually compete with the regular giants like CNN,Fox,ABC etc. Sounds really great to achieve this but I have been building corporate America for most of my life. This is a challenge for me to do with so many good sources of news out there but this is something I want to be offering on a global scale.. So, this year I started this news service to provide just that to a global educated audience..

Stock Market Upswing ..

Good morning to all you early birds it is the fearless critic here.  Has anyone seen the run the stock market made this week? Well it sure is impressive to run up 200 to 300 points gain and maintain that momentum all week. Normally you might get this kind of run following a sharp decline which would be a flash run up or down course corresponding to the way the market correction. This is different this week with a boat load of good economic data. You combine this with the news from the Federal Reserve bank that they are going to cut the discount rate a half a percentage point. The third part that has added more good to the economy is the news from the chairman that they are going to print and pump more money into the economic system. This has fueled Wall Street investors to buy heavy into the market this week. Normally investment gurus like myself are sceptical about the market based on long term experience. This time I have to say I am pleased with the upswing which gives plenty of opportunity to make money if you are investing in blue chips and staying away from bonds. Buying into solutions in stocks that are considered solid proformers like Boeing and Verizon is a wise choice. So, I recommend that everyone jump into the market and go make yourself some quick easy profits this week while the upswing rally continues..
Have a great profitable day.

Support People

I frequently harp on important issues here that are something that most business people don't pay attention to while being a corporate guru. You see in business good people make you money and bad people cost you lots of money when you employ them. So the backbone of any good business is your support people who do marketing,sales,tech and customer service. Yes, every good owner or manager knows that if you want to grow a successful business you need a highly skilled and trained support workforce. This unfortunately is where most companies fail to recognize that you need these types of people. You should as a management promote these types of people since the best possible future chief of operations or another type position would best be filled with a lower level with higher technical expertise. By using skilled workers you increase your productivity but reduce your overall costs of doing business. So does it work?? Yes, you need to tap your labor pool to find out who can do what within your company. A good start to finding out your companies strength is by using a internal survey distribution to all your employees. If you can't do that ask them on social media to respond to a employees survey online. You need to know these items so that you can make a proper management decision with every employee you have working for you. Simply put the support people will grow your business meanwhile costing you less than if you have to train some new outstander. Then the decision becomes easy to make with regarding who is a right fit for your company and what employees are just excess bags.. Think of these things next time you walk past the employees in your business doing your employees review process..

Milestone ..

Well I could be happy with a lot of things but I really have to rave about this blog has achieved another milestone. Yup your hearing me right I just looked at the profile report this morning and I must say thanks to all growing world wide readership. This blog averaged readership is 43 counties and growing give or take some depending on the needs of the massive amount of people that come to read this blog.page. Not to shabby considering that I started this blog because one of my former women business assistants in my company suggested that I should share some knowledge online. In my usual fashion I said well that sounds interesting but I don't think I have the time nor the patience to sit down to write anything. Well,here it is now that she proved me wrong with this blog by the interest that everyone has shown over it's  life cycle. I want to publicly thank Cassady Hurd and Karen Brownelle both my former business assistants for their valuable input with our company. Their contribution to the ideas of creative blogging have definitely shown a need by our company to include blogging as a essential part of our brand management. So congratulations to both of them and good luck on all your new ventures.

Business Phyco graphics

This morning I starting my day with the usually busy things to get done including sipping my morning coffee. Then it hit me I thought not many things in business really deal with the phyco graphics issue which really has a big important impact on customers purchasing a products or services. Well, what is phyco graphics? Good Question ... It is the collection of different emotional thoughts and responses to a various amount of data collection pertaining to a product or service. In other words if you buddy tells you that when your going to buy a car for instance he has a good deal and no problems with his Chevrolet Malibu. Chances are your going to go out to a Chevrolet Dealer to look at all the different models available for sale on the show room floor.. Then your going to remember the comments of your buddy and go ask the sales person to sit in a Chevrolet Malibu. After looking around at all the other manufacturers and models of cars your most likely to go back and buy the Chevrolet Malibu because it has a reputation for being a good car and higher brand value than say a Toyota Camry. This is a example of brand based customer phyco graphics in which the feeling of a person,family and friends influences every purchase they make in their lifetime. Every business must include this in any marketing program to create a brand that well known for value,quality and being  affordable to the customer. This is essential to building a brand that will sell itself by having a long term product or service life cycle. Simply put if your brand is well known for to the prospective customer for being worth the money chances are the customer will buy your product over and over again meanwhile recommending it to others to purchase it. This reduces your advertising and marketing budget in your business by having a brand that is known for as good investment.. Consider this to be essential to growth in any business for your company to beat your competition by knowledge of your customers demographics and phyco graphics.

Have a great day..

Business politics

I my usual fashion of trying to bring the truth to both business and investment worlds I sometimes have to add a new ideas to everything. Today is one of those days where I am going to tackle the other side of what business and investment van do to help.the community. So here is all the bananas in a one boat load for you to think of at the same time. LOL .. OK .. To do business and investment means that you make money which makes everyone happy and successful. However the downside of what most business and investment people do is be greedy so they never turn to helping the community that made them wealthy. I know your thinking here dude that is not true most business and investors give back through charity contributions to their community. The unfamiliar truth to most people is that greed runs high in the growing amount of people with financial wealth. In fact the people surprisingly who give the least to help the community is one top ten percent of the worlds most financially successful people. So giving to the community and charity organizations is good as a investment and great public relations for your business. In fact by giving to the community you reduce your marketing and communications by giving your business a good name for the giving it does to support the community. Consider this the next best marketing tool when your sales and marketing department tryouts new ideas to lure in new customers to your business
Have a great day..

Market Gain

I often like to poke fun at the pundits most of them are very critical of my market analysis. Today I think I will just point out something that is beginning to be a narrow but important trend in investimg. You see while a lot of the big guys who are institutional investors are ingnoring the facts while some smaller guys are making big gains by buying alternative energy stocks and bonds. Yup, that's right while most of the herd guzzles down expensive technology stocks some smart guys are putting their money into green energy. I will be the first one to say that while it is not attractive looking part of the market compared to say big technology stocks like IBM and Cisco but it sure does make a lot of money. You see that even some big names like Warren Buffet have started to really realize that you have to look for new investments. This is the right place to invest your money so that you make a consistent profit even if it becomes a bear market. That is the beautiful part of this that no matter which way the market goes up or down your still a winner. Why?? Well Green energy is the present and is here to stay including more users and technology that is being put into use every day. So with that thought in mind it is a solid investment that will continue to grow with more products,producers and higher demand for total consumption with this industry.

Happy investimg and have a great day.

Stock Futures

Good morning my fair weather robbins I hope your day is a gourmet breakfast feast with plans to.make money. As you know I am the fearless investment guru who pulls the punches on high volume investments on the market daily. Today I thought I would share something with all my readership about making money on stock futures.Yup it sounds silly to think that you as a investor can bet and hedge on future things on the market but hold your britches up because you really can do it. I know your already muttering to yourself saying I am nuts that for certain this time I have lost my mind. Just a minute there party of readers while I pause to sip my morning Java boy does that taste good today. OK .. Here's the thing guys and gals you can make money on futures with a not so well known instrument called ETF (Exchange Trading Funds) which has just as much value as the physical stock or bond but without the bear risk involved. I am not saying that it is bullet proof from market swinging but as a short term investment vehicle it beats the market by about a five to one margin reliablility. Not to shabby for just owning a piece of paper that can be bought and sold many times in almost assured your going to make double or triple your original investment back in a short time. What I am saying is if you want to make money on the market you need to reduce your hyper inflation risk so you increase your portfolio instead of losing your shirt. To the small investor this is really important since capital investment is usually small so it is easy to lose it all in a bear market or with market flash crashes which sometimes happens even to the wisest investors. It is important to know when to invest but you need to know what is good investments in the market with a large volume of choices to pick from stocks,bonds,ETF,mutual funds and the lists continues. So be a contrarian by buying into solutions that group your portfolio into a winning combination of a broad spectrum of investments so you keep your risk low. If you do this your going to.make money on your portfolio by consistantly beating the market no matter how much bear or bull swing your faced with daily..  Have a great day now..Smile ....

Unintentional Absence..

I just want to post to here to apologize for.my absence from regular posting to.this blog but due to management of lots of new projects at the same time I have not posted to this blog recently. Sometimes other things get in the way of keeping up with this blog so I am just a very busy person. However I am going to change the posting schedule so that it does post important things using the auto post option on this blog. Many readers over the years have comment statements suggesting that I should consider additional media output through useable networks. I have to some degree done that with this blog but not done all of it to current date. In between my busy schedule I will began to add these new networks to increase the function of this blog. Hopefully everyone will have a positive response to the new changes that I am making which reflects the comments as you the readers of this blog. I tip my glass in toast to you as my readership of this blog with a big smile to have a really great day.

Business and Life Lessons..

Well, I thought I would share some valuable lessons about being a business man including some valuable life lessons that I have learned from when I lost everything in later part of 2010 going bankrupt. I have to say that looking back about two years ago I made some bad company decisions including investments in the stock market that all lead me to fail and have to reorganize my business ventures and how I invest money. That is how you learn is from your mistakes which is very painful to do and by using a different plan for rebuilding your businesses and portfolios by never making the same mistakes again. I look at some examples of corporate failures turned into a larger success like Donald Trump who went 440 million dollars in the red and lost everything only to have the clothes on his back after all the creditors got finished with him. While my mistakes as a Executive have not been as bad as Donald Trump and many others who have hit bottom their is one thing you learn from Donal Trump and my own mistakes is to get back up and go start something new with a new larger plan to gain back all you lost. I know it sounds absurd but really if you think about it you can really turn everything around if you already have the knowledge and the skills to do it plus having the contacts in a network to accomplish it. If your a good manager you know how to turn failure into success and success into a conglomerate company because you have already learned from your prior mistakes and made the changes to fix the problems. So this is what I have done with our businesses is to make the changes that are needed and go after a aggressive corporate strategy to grow our businesses into the global conglomerate which is what we are becoming as of now from our reorganization of two years ago. The future has changed for our business in the fact we have put in place many new people and technology that will continue our vision of growing a global conglomerate business that will compete in the 21 century with other multi national and international brand names. So looking forward to the future of our brand we hope to make it a well known name that is based on quality and diversity of products including services that will make us the preferred choice of all consumers world wide. So sharing with everyone some of our global vision to hopefully to become a greater partner in business development including the global community with lots of new ideas,products and services that will put us as the recognized leader in the world. So this is what we are all about in our businesses and our plan on continuing to expand our broader base of business in the world today with all the future of our businesses.. One day in the future we hope to be a trusted brand that is like Wal Mart,McDonalds, Starbucks,Shell Oil like so many others that no matter were you go everyone will knows us and use our product and services, this is what we hope to achieve.

Have a Great Day!!

Global Sales

Well it is a touchy subject that not every company wants to tackle how do you sell on a global scale. Most people in business think that your gain your customers through aggressive local based sales tactics that is all good but that misses the great profit potential that is available to grab out there in the world today. A global sales and marketimg program will achieve more for your business than a tunnel vision local programs. Simply stated if your going to be marketing your products or services you had better be proactive in using your resources to achieve a greater customer base by targeted marketing and sales to a various wider customer base in which you spread your brand in a global market. If your a good executive or marketer then you already hopefully know the potential your going to gain by doing a strategy such as what I am talking about here. Now a days business has to be more flexible in order to compete in a global networked world that is more depending on technology and human infrastructure that at any time in previous history. You know that as a mid size or large scale business your company has to control the competition by one updated strategy which is do everything bigger and better than your competitors do. Be really good at pointing this out to your marketing and sales departments so your company keeps it edge with a global view allways.

Thanksgiving..

I just want to wish everyone a very happy Thanksgiving and hopefully everyone is spending it with your family and friends today..

Business Attorney

Well any good business can not do with a good attorney to sift through all the mountains of red government tape and papers that have to be filed every year. In this every changing world of the mode of business you need a person who can take the load off key personnel. So having a full time attorney that works on behalf of your business is very valuable since it makes your business run smoothly. If you want to be a successful business you have to pay the price for good help to accomplish your business goals.

Hurricane Profits

Good morning,
I know that everyone is focused on the election today so I am just going against the tide here. Has anyone stopped to think of the financial benefits to a large natural disaster such as hurricane Sandy? I know that I have with all my businesses that I own how much money is going begging. Quite simply stated anyone with long term business experience can and should see the potential profits that are for needed products and services. You don't have to be a five star Harvard economic guru to tap into the money tree that is the end results of this hurricane. Yes, sure I feel really bad for all the victims of this hurricane but I am also a business man by trade. So in my zest to smell out the next big money making idea or place to investment our company resources I allways am going against the gurus and the herd. I have built my conglomerate businesses on never following what others do which is why I have succeeded while others flopped. So on to the ideas here about making money with this new pot of gold called hurricane Sandy. First thing is to realize that all these products and services are in high demand. Then developing a ambitious detailed plan to filling the customers needs which are multitudes of needs that they have. The next thing is to get out there and start filling those needs before everyone else jumps in on the band wagon. You got to be the one business conglomerate that steps forward to do everything while others just sit on there comfortable executive chair debating what to do. Lets face it folks if your lazy the others who are your competition will profit over your mistakes. So being number one in business takes a lot of guts and zeal to keep your competition from eating you for breakfast. The best thing with this pot of gold opportunity is to just make your plan and go after it. Some piece of important business wisdom in another day of a large scale national disaster called hurricane Sandy.

Have a great day...

Good morning..

Well this is Sunday and so it is something important to let everyone know that Norton News Corporation is now publishing articles on the blog and most social media sites effective last week. So just to let everyone know this is just the beginning of a global news service that I hope will become a standard for excellent journalism. This new venture is about to make a new standard for how the news is reported online and in.print published articles. So it gives me great pleasure to tell everyone about this news business and what I envision for it to be in the future..

Have a great day.. Smile.

Hurricane..

<p>I just want to warn everyone to stay safe with this current hurricane. Hope you all stay safe and don't take any unnecessary risks.. Have a safety minded day... smile ..

Globalization..

I think today is a good day to talk about the economy in a different way than what I normally do. In the unpleasant world of change in modern society you do see some interesting new development in how businesses are dealing with global issues. No longer can a mom and pop enterprise survive without feeling the overall effects of the global market share influences. If your going to be competitive in whatever field of business your doing you had better be using a global plan. If you expect to be successful in business you have to be cutting your overhead by using technology to simplify your products and services. The only way these days to stay competitive is to outsource and offshore your workforce and production to cheaper nations so you still make a increased profit. This idea is taken hold and is becoming the standard by which business ventures and investors make increased profit share for all the people involved. We live in a increasimgly connected world that makes it easier for business to comprehensive planning for production and marketing on a global scale. To quickly sum up what I am talking about is that you have to be a business that uses a global plan to achieve both production and marketing to many countries in order to be a success.. So including a global plan for your business is a very good thing to be doing to growing your business in the modern age..

Have a great Day.. Smile ...

Business and Stock Growth..

The good news is better than expected with most mid to larger companies showing a bigger profit margin than prior quarter reports..Then add the stock market going up at 2.7 percentage points including the technology sector which has been flat or in mostly lost money. Well the question is whether this is just another short term growth?? I have looked at the economy over the last three years and the charts speak volumes about what is happening to our economy. The first thing is a lot more companies are cutting their work force by outsourcing it to cheaper labor in countries in Mexico and India. The second thing is the use of more robotics to create products and use of technology instead of humans to do the same jobs. Lastly more businesses are moving their operations to overseas to ovoid taxation in America. When you add all this up it certainly shows a bleak picture of economic growth for the future of business and stocks in the coming quarterly reports. So what does it all mean for main street? Things are going to probably going to get a lot worse before they begin turning up hill again which unfairly we will be facing as a economic future in America..

Rosey Report

Today is a day of some good news on business and Investment as the Dow edges up on reports of some companies actually post profits. The good news is a huge shot in the arm for many companies and smaller investments. The unfortunate part of this is it is not a reflection of long term growth in the economy. With unemployment still average at 10.8 percent and many companies still forced to downsizing the workforce the effects have certainly being felt at the middle and the bottom of the economy. The flip side is that more people are getting richer at the top end of the spectrum and moreover salary in this bracket has seen the largest increase. This is good for business and investment but bad if your like most people who are the other ninety percent who ate the cost of job failure. The rosey picture is becoming only for the select few who have adjusted to this global economic shift in this recent decade. To be a success now you no longer can do it with simple sales and products but instead you have to add many new components to add value to beat your competition. This does reflect the overall attitude and climate of both business and investment in the 21st century.  Completely different from even a decades back when the product or services just sold themselves. This is how much business and investment has changed just in this century to a value added technology based profile..

Labor Day

I want to wish everyone a happy labor day today...

VJ DAY Holiday...

Good morning to all my readership I just want to wish everyone a nice holiday today. Hope that everyone attends a veterans celebration and  goes to a veterans cemetery. Everyone should honor our veterans with putting flowers and a American flag on all veterans graves even if your not blood family related..

Thank You

Next Big Tidal Wave

I think I will state the obvious and then hit the nail on the head this morning. Well to my readership it is obvious that what I predicted is true with wall street clearly cheerful over the movement of the markets to a positive position with some quick dips. If you look back a few weeks ago that I said this is going to happen with the market data bringing lots of smiling faces. So I hit the nail on the head about what the markets would do in the coming weeks. It is time to roll the clock ahead to now to look at the market data to see what's up next. Here's what I see which is that the cheers are going stop when the news that has been affecting Europe hits here on our shores of America. I am talking about the massive debt crisis that has buried several countries like Greece. When this economic tidal wave hits our country the effects are going to be devastating. The market effects are going to slam head long into investors with major declines in their portfolios. This wave of bad economic decline is just a preview to a the Commerce Department and Treasury department reports which will floor most people. Yes the full impact of this second wave of economic data news is going to cause lots of people to loose their jobs and everyone to feel financial pain. This will happen this year most likely within the next six months with the data that I am reading on credibile sites like Market Watch. So here I go again making a perdition about investing,jobs and the economy. I just hope that this tidal wave will not reach our economy here in America. The problem is that we in America are already reeling from poor GDP growth and chronic debt burden. This tide of upcoming crisis is going to worsen the ailing economy we have in America. I am hopefull that this wave of bad economic stimulus will be adverted quickly.. We in America have to our our financial house in order so that overall problems like the ones that come from overseas don't do damage to us. Have a great morning everyone and a wonderful day.. Smile..

Stock Market Pendulum

Well, it certainly has been a gut wrenching roller coaster ride this week for investors. The news out of Europe just hit hard home here in the US and has given many investment people cause to reach for the tums rolaids. Just when everyone thought the European debt crisis was over here comes the next wave of bad news. It really has investors scratching their head and taking a selling off panic in their portfolio.. The mainstream on main street herd has just pulled out of the market thinking we are heading for a huge gillatine crash in both stocks and bonds. This is not true because if you are a smart investment guy,you are looking at the charts to see what they are showing you.. That certainly is a different picture of a simple market correction that is going to last a short few days. Any good trader knows to be a success in investment you have to jump in when everyone else hits the panic button on wall street. You do the opposite of what the herd does as a contrarian and your the one who gets rich.. If you play your games short and long correctly your going to make lots of money. So with that said about investments this week do yourself a favor and buy in heavy while the market sinks. Then when the reversal comes next week ride the wave to to crest and then sell off your stocks which is calked shorting the market. By doubling your profits this way you beat the market instead of the market beating you on your short game..For the long game I recommend buying solid dividend paying stocks and investment in bonds like Vanguard Total Equity Return.or Janus High Yield Investor to hedge your risk.  Thus you beat the market and make.money no matter which way the markets swing up or decline.. Hope that this helps everyone to make a truck load of dough..
Have a Great a Day...

Economic Perspective

I recently found myself talking to a couple of college students about the economy. In talking to them I found out that they have been actively looking for a job by putting out over fourteenth job applications a week. These students told me that even with the constant effort that they still have not gotten a paying job. They are so dissatisfied with with the situation with employment that these college women are going to move to another state to secure a paying job. This discussion about jobs was joined by a middle fifties person who said that he worked in construction all his life until it went sour in this decade. He said that going back to college was is not a easy decision for him but it seems to be the only one he could do to get a better job. I am finding that lots of people are in the same predicament with the slow economy that is effecting a huge part of the population in America. The disappointed people I am talking to said that the overall job problem is a menace to their lives. For some I have talked to they ate trying to get full time employment but they are currently working part time presently. Many people are doing this type of employment but it is not enough to pay for basic expenses for their family. It is tough to get a job and even harder to keep one because so many people are either under employed or totally unemployed in America. This problem needs to be dealt with so that every American has a good paying job and government is not doing discrimination against any part of the population. In the last decade government regulations have and are becoming more discrimination against everyone except the rich in this nation. This is causes more people who want to work left out because government has taken away their freedom and ability to live through the use of cruel regulations. This is just additional layer of problems to the already bleak economic and social situation that exists in America today. I think back to Ross Perot who said what is needed is to cut government and shrink the number of regulations in America so that we begin to be a nation of freedom instead of a dictatorship. I agree with his analysis of what has to be done to put America back to the front of leadership instead of being nearly a third world nation. I think that if we do tough decisions and do the items listed above America will have a great renewal and experience huge amount of growth in the coming years... Let's do the right things in America and put this country on the right track so that we improve the lives of everyone instead of practicing discrimination.

Business Expansion

I thought today I would turn to something that has been recently in the news. Most businesses both large and small are in certain sectors of the economy are actually growing this year. Yes, even though the economy overall is still showing weakness some well known companies are actually expanding. This is good to see growth in technology and utilities such as Microsoft and Teco which until recently have been hit hard by huge losses. Some other not so well known are making amazing strides in picking up new contracts and adding new workets. This makes the smart smaller companies more able to generate more revenue than the large conglomerate companies in a weak economy. The fitness of the modern business is heavy depending on outsourcing and new product innovation. Some areas of the economy are ready to start booming like the housing sector which has recently started additional new home orders. This will effect a lot of other people in other businesses if this continues since real estate is the core predictor of how much expansion the economy will do in the future. So look for most businesses to group together with mergers and to consolidate in order to go ahead with planned future expansion. This kind of business plans will work for some businesses but for some others it will spell their overall demise due to lack of financial liquidity. The big gains will be in technology,utilities and  manufacturing which continue to most flexibility and profit margins this year. The best business plan is to start into a business that would be in one of the new growth economic sectors so you would be sure of your success..

Market Rally

After a really bad roller coaster ride for investors this week with some flash declines due to economic data. Friday investors decided to weigh in on the European crisis after getting good economic news from overseas. The markets rallied to a 277 point 2.30 percent increase on the Dow Jones and other markets today with short sellers jumping back in on the market rally. Investment brokerage houses however down graded stock valuations on several stocks like Rimm ( Research In Motion) and Ford Motor Co. due to poor overall performance. Some analysts see the market overall weakness as a sign of a possible return to a bear market in the short term future. In other economic news that hit investors and business this week is the GDP fell by more than one percentage point to 2.1 percent. This after the last quarter seen no improvement in growth reported by the Commerce Department for both this quarter and earnings for business in fiscal year 2012 stayed flat. Lots of investors reacted sharply to more companies laying off worker and shrinking investment in new product development by businesses this year. Economic pundits talked over this week if the currently proposed fix to European fiscal crisis is actually going to solve the problems that many EU currency nations are dealing with now. The current solutions to dealing with European problems have been the hot topic of conversation at many board rooms in companies in America and abroad. This month the Federal Reserve changed the interest rate and announced more change to the Twist program. This caused many on Wall Street to review their investment strategy and some institutional investors to bail out before the markets radically declined. On the bright side more investors seen new opportunity to buy cheap stock and make a profit even in a weak baseline market. Look for a new rallies next week as investors size up the news and economic data set to come out from Europe and from the Treasury and Commerce Department. Most analysts project a fiscal expansion on some sectors of the economy but with more bad news from government sources could cause a scale back by investors and businesses. The green shoots in the economy are driving some expansion that both business and investors see as a sign that the economy is about to greatly expand. How the expansion is going to happen is what makes investors nervous about their portfolios. With slow economic growth most business and individual investors are taking a reserved approach presently. When the opening bell for next weeks session on Monday happens for stock markets look for most of main street and wall street to jump fully back in the market indexes. Have a great weekend and enjoy it be prepared to get in early Monday and make some great money..

Dow Losses

It sure has been another blood bath for stocks on wall street today as we feel the pain again of another dose of triple digit loses. Most investors just bailed out of stocks and really went looking for safety in their portfolio after last weeks disaster decline on Thursday. Stock performance started out this Monday as the same sour note with investors hedging bonds over stocks. This shift has driven the market indexes to another 146 plus points decline before closing bell with most stocks and some bonds off a full percentage point or more today. I think this is just a market correction that we have all have to bear the brunt of this week. On the brighter side some under value stocks in the oil and utilities sector actually gained a average of 2 to 3.5 percent  in today's market weakness which is good.
Stocks like Geo Petro and Teco Energy gained a healthy 2.4 percentage on the market share price. Look for a some solid stocks to do well such as Verizon and Microsoft in the coming days as investors buy back in on cheap dividend payers. Good investment in the cheap stocks and bonds are a solution to the building your individual wealth even in a weak market. Have a great day and invest wisely so you earn money on your portfolio especially on dividend paying investments.

Back to Work

Well, It sure has been a rough ride with my health for the last six weeks but I am happy to announce that I am all better now. I know that that I let this blog go dormant and forced to walk away from posting to it because I could not see the screen for several weeks. So I lost my readership on here due to my illness but I am back to work here now. I hope that everyone took the time to read all my back articles and gave a lot of thought to what I have written. It is great to be seeing this page clearly again and be back to writing hard hitting investigation articles with plenty of commentary. I apologize to my readers for being absent but I hope in my absence you found simple quality time to spend with your family and friends. Now that I am here again to stay and write the good opinion articles and investigation news pieces look for a great deal of journalism coming your way. Everyone have a really great weekend and stay cool as most of the country of America is on sweat mode averaging one hundred degrees today.

Pink eye..

This sucks having pink eye in both eyes and dealing with blurred vision. I can barely read this screen today and what would be very easy to do is one heck of a chore to do. I apologize for not being able to post regular to this blog due to health problems. Thanks for your understanding with this blog...

Holiday today

Happy memorial holiday today to all my readership worldwide..

Vision Problem ..

I am sorry to my readership that I have not been posting to here like I promised but I am having blurred vision that is very annoying to me. It is making it hard to read the screen and everything else this week. When it becomes better then I will go to posting to this blog frequently but until I can see clearly I will not be here for a short time.. Sorry for the inconvenience to everyone online who reads this blog..

Stock Correction Coming

Well stocks were mixed this week with heavy trading in all major markets. This week has seen a 217 point drop on the Dow only to have institutional investors come to the rescue after a sharp decline. The decline was due in part to more economic data showing slow growth in the first quarter going into second quarter earnings for American businesses. This combined with some good news that unemployment is staying at 8.2 percent is giving investors pause for thought on this new information. We see that most major investment houses and the federal reserve holding the line on pouring more money into the market. The reaction by the federal reserve this week was the usually muted yawning and we will wait and see if this is going away soon. Mostly investors just held their noses and jumped back in on the upside on late Thursday when the market indicated a upswing starting. Some recent data shows that the GDP for this quarter has actually gotten better with a 2.4 percentage growth over last years report. Still not enough to put joy in the hearts of investors and more money in everyones pockets but it still is better than the last three years. The last three years saw America with crippling double digit inflation and combined with more national debt increases to add to the problem. Credit has gotten harder to get for every part of the economy and banks failures have become more common as pancakes with homemade apple pie. So what to do this year? Investors watch out the seesaw of the markets is going to continue with more mixed economic data to come. However I see the third quarter of 2012 should have a more stable field for the avid marketeer. Why? Simple you will see the big companies shifting to cutting costs meaning that they will be hiring more workers but at a cheaper labor rate. Profits soured by tight credit will be offset by new venture capital being involved in the later part of this year. Overall if your going to invest go with diversity and by all means add plenty of dividend paying stocks to your portfolio. You might want to also go with managed bond funds like Vanguard or Janus that provide you longer term stability with lower market risk. In any investment decision think with your head not your heart so that you win more than you lose by a three to one margin for winning trading. Strap on you jet pack this week coming is going to be a shift climbing up in the markets so everyone should be poised to jump in on the new growth. Have a great Sunday everyone and enjoy it to the maximum. Smile .......

Kid in a Candy Store

I am just feeling really gitty about the stock market today decline. You see while all the investment houses stole the show by telling investors to go in big on the market over the past month. I told everyone to get out now so that they would keep their portfolio intact and wait until the market dropped enough on down swing. OK.. I hope everyone took my advice here and did not listen to the advisors in wall street fat cat firms who lined there pockets when the market nose dives. The numbers don't lie and neither does the chart data which shows the knee jerk tears and sobbing of the outside investment community.  The smart ones in business bailed out when the chart data started to reach toppings at the peak signaling at reverse decline going to happen so they kept their money. This market has been really strange this year so far with many changes in the past few months both positive and negative. Some advisors have suggested that the markets are going to climb to 15000 marker this year but I think it is very unreasonable to get everyones hopes up. The real story is unemployment is up and more businesses are cutting back or folding up shop permanently. This will effect the investment plans of many individuals and corporate investors who feel that they are skating on thin ice praying that they can all stay afloat. Having a good insight as I do I could see this coming and bailed out until the markets go down to the bottom then buy in on cheap stocks. You know folks this decline is temporary so take advantage of the cheap stocks then ride the wave to near the top. Every smarter investment guy will you that your nuts to buy on the down side supposedly because your losing your shirt. Trust in you knowledge he does not know his bank from his wallet so he is a loser doing his advice column. But if your smart like me you buy on the dip and bail out when the charts are screaming sell it before you get to the top of the wave. This after all is a business and anyone who is idiot that treats this any other way is just going to lose their entire portfolio. Take your risk at a calculated ratio so you get at least three to one on wins and losses. This way you grow your portfolio meaningfully while other poor slobs are popping tums and crying in their towel over their losses in the markets. My advice is buy in now while it is low this morning and watch your charts to bail out later this week. Yes there's going to be a few volitle stages but do the smart thing and stay with it unless you think the stock is going to the toilet then by all means bail before you lose everything in you accounts. Following this advanced advice here will make you money and after all that is the business you choose to be in which is a very risky but profit driven one.. Have a good day now and really reap the rewards you deserve..

Factory Output Slow..

You would think that with all the current hype that the economy is getting better. A good prediction of how the overall economy is doing is to look at factory orders for durable goods such as refrigerators and computers etc. Looking at the GDP which is how we currently measure economic output it tells a total different story which is factory orders are sharply down. What does this all mean for our economy and more over how is our trade partners affected. The answer will surprise you in the fact that when our output slows the rest of the world feels eventually the same pain as we all do. If you look at prior documented slow GDP you see a pattern of weakness in the rest of the worlds monetary system. Usually the banks are the first to react to these changes as they have the inside information to know how to deal with their own business interest well before you and I know about it. So watch the banks and the Federal Reserve to see if there is any changes in policy which would certainly show a attempt to heading off a financial crisis. A economic slow down allways has some prior individual indications just like if you look at a chart for a popular stock you want to buy.  Taking a deeper look into the economy you see that the current weakness is due to a combination of factors including heavy handed government regulation of business in America. Every time you add a new layer of regulations more businesses in this country fail which slows the GDP because you are losing output. The larger companies are more able to shift to meet the new government demands. However the small business entry is forced to use more creative ways to generate new revenue or fold up permanently. If the backbone of American business which is the mom and pop shops continue to fail at the current attrition rate we can see more of a deeper recession. This is a pending disaster that the government bean counters and the Federal Reserve have not taken into consideration lately. You can not have a soft monetary policy that does not fix the problem which shows a total lack of understanding of all our countries problems. For many decades we in this country have been like a dumb chicken running around on a drunken spending spree and passing the problem to the next generation. It is time to start supporting our own national interests and let the rest of the world sink or swim on it's own. That is the only way we are not going to have a total financial collapse in every sector of our economy. Having a clear understanding of our overwhelming financial mess we are in is no easy task. We in America do what is right by cutting our national debt and supporting ourselves not on credit then we can fix our financial mess sooner. So let's pump up the GDP by getting our financial house in order and pay off the massive debt we have incurred over many decades.
