For those interested in market history,

For those interested in market history, today is the 10th anniversary of the maximum extent of the ‘technology bubble’ where the NASDAQ peaked at a level of 5,000 points (in contrast: today, the Nasdaq Composite closed at roughly 2,368 points). Speaking of bullish news, the S&P 500 made a 17-month high today, as the strength of the recent rally confounds many, most of all the bears who claim the market is way ahead of itself given the still poor economic fundamentals (housing market, labor market, debt situation, etc.). Skeptics suggest that ‘fundamentals don’t matter’ as they see this all as a liquidity-driven event with money trying to find a home in a (still) low-interest rate environment.

According to the press, stocks were subdued in the early going today because investors reacted cautiously to the news that Chinese consumer inflation had hit a 16-month high. Chinese authorities said the country’s inflation rate was at 2.7% in February (January’s reading: 1.5%), sparking fears interest rates could rise soon and that such a move would prompt a slowing of global economic growth.

Today’s late-day rally was primarily attributed to strength in financials with Citigroup taking center stage. Citigroup’s CEO announced today – the bank, one of the hardest hit by the financial crisis – was now on a path toward ’sustained profitability’. Citigroup stock rose by more than 5% today, on top of a recent surge which has taken it from roughly $3.40 per share at the beginning of the month to almost $4.20 today.

The latest economic data released today shows a decline in initial claims (workers filing for jobless benefits for the first time) to 462,000 last week. The decline (of 6,000 claims) was however not quite as large as economists had been predicting and thus did not suggest an increase in hiring or much improvement in the labor market.

Equities were also boosted by more M&A activity: Key oil player BP will acquire the exploration rights (for Brazil, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Caspian Sea) from Devon Energy for $7 billion to. There has been increased activity in mergers and acquisitions in recent weeks. Some market observers say this points to more faith in an economic recovery; others however maintain that this often signals a top in the market.

Key economic data for the week starting March 8, 2010. Numbers shown are consensus estimates (market anticipates this value) and prior value.

I’m Changing My Name to Chrysler (Arlo Guthrie)

I’m Changing My Name to Chrysler, performed by Arlo Guthrie, lyrics by Tom Paxton. “Corporate welfare-the enormous and myriad subsidies, bailouts, giveaways, tax loopholes, debt revocations, loan guarantees, discounted insurance and other benefits conferred by government on business-is a function of political corruption. Corporate welfare programs siphon funds from appropriate public investments, subsidize companies ripping minerals from federal lands, enable pharmaceutical companies to gouge consumers, perpetuate anti-competitive oligopolistic markets, injure our national security, and weaken our democracy.” – Ralph Nader in “Cutting Corporate Welfare.” www.thirdworldtraveler.com

Crash Course: Chapter 19 – Future Shock by Chris Martenson

admin — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 23:55:14 +0000

Chapter 19 (Future Shock): Debt, money creation, population, and energy production have all experienced unsustainable exponential growth in recent years. This fact, when paired with the housing bubble, ‘boomer’ retirements, peak oil production, a national failure to save money, and excessive exploitation of natural resources, is cause for alarm. In this summary, Dr. Chris Martenson encourages us, “to return to living within our natural and economic budgets.” The next twenty years are going to be completely unlike the last.

Cuts in public sector spending NOW, part2 (08Mar10)

admin — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 11:41:22 +0000

Part 2 of 2: Still arguing over whether to carry on New Labour’s plan for uk’s bankruptcy, or cut public sector spending (and the borrowing to fund it) now. The international markets have already made up their mind, and is why the UK Pound is getting worth less and less as the prospect of New Labour staying in power increases in the opinion polls. New Labour are deliberately smashing the UK Pound’s value to get the UK into the Euro by ANY means necessary. Recorded from The Daily Politics, 08 March 2010.
