Though I agree with Jim Rogers, I think that the U.S Fed will not let the stock market fall too much this year. They are going to inject so much money into the stock market in 2012 to make it look like everything is “honky dory” so that Obama can get re-elected.
This of course will be a silent, money printing and injection of capital through the backdoor to manipulate markets.
Obama, said that the last time he raised the debt ceiling that he will not need to do it again. However, the U.S Government now needs more money again.
So, I finally got around to installing the newer version (v.11) of the financial charting sofware MetaStock a few weeks ago.It is a great piece of sofware, I’ve been using it since year 2007, however back then I was doing swing trading which was much shorter term and using daily charts to find opportunities to buy and sell stocks which took days or weeks.
The timing is only different, he says, because “banks these days are much bigger than they were in 1929.” In the 20’s institutions were reliant on client money to lead their bailout attempts. Today Central Banks have the ability to call on future, often overstated, tax revenues and are unencumbered by anything such as a gold standard when attempting to ward off the human desire to hide under the covers, financially speaking.
Henry S. Dent has a pretty good track record of foretelling what will happen. Nobody can predict when it will happen just what is going to happen and so far, the next crash is taking longer because of Fed stimulus.
He recommends get out of stocks, commodities and get into cash and U.S Treasuries. He is not a gold bug though. He thinks it is a commodity and will get pull down with all other commodities.

Looking at M2, the Federal Reserve is printing more in secret and injecting it in the stock markets, keeping it inflated…preventing it from collapsing, but it will happen.
The fact that today is 2 days to Christmas and there have been a very dismal market move upwards, I think this sets up a bad tone for the markets going into the first quarter of next year.
The market strength is just not there and using technical analysis looking both the DOW and Nasdaq charts it seems the the DJIA is going sideways and the Nasdaq is starting to trend down. Both the DOW and Nasdaq shows declining volumes as well.
