FYI | Jul 29 2011
By Rudi Filapek-Vandyck, Editor FNArena
I joined Twitter. Not because I am curious what this celebrity has to say about her kids, or to read that another one is waiting for a connecting flight, impatiently. Twitter allows me to follow news and commentary sources such as Dow Jones' Marketwatch, Bloomberg News and the Wall Street Journal. It assists me in keeping up with what is happening across the globe, while I am observing and analysing financial markets myself.
While I am on Twitter, reading a quote here and a news flash there, I offer my own succint insights and commentary. Those amongst you who have already discovered the virtues of a Twitter account can add my Tweets to their daily news via @filapek.
For those who have no intention to join Twitter, but would like to stay up to date, below are my Tweets from the week past:
– Another contrarian indicator with solid historical reliability: Credit Suisse's Euphoria/Panic Indicator is about to sink into "Panic" zone
– July Investor Sentiment Survey shows bulls at year-low and bears at year-high. A signal the turnaround is near?
– Fact: financial markets are not always correct but world is in dire straits if it's up to politicians to come up with sustainable solutions
– Time To Pause: Oz Equities remain in grey zone in between overlap of trading ranges 4200-4600 and 4500-5000 – it's been two years now
– I agree with commentary elsewhere, yesterday's CPI in Oz was the worst possible outcome for the share market
– FNArena Finance TV on the internet – today's the second broadcast of Market Insight – view it live at 4pm (Sydney time) www.brr.com.au/event/82650
– Climate change causes? We published more fuel to add to the ongoing discussion (thanks to Rick Mills) https://www.fnarena.com/index2.cfm?type=dsp_newsitem&n=5F4B1004-D7E4-03AC-D61213F1A2AB0220
– One of my favourite observations: oil equities have yielded nothing over the past 5 years, here's a part explanation
– AUD/USD poised to hit 1.10 and probably some more, and here's why https://www.fnarena.com/index2.cfm?type=dsp_newsitem&n=5EB84BEF-BA1D-ACFF-30DE3CC1CB936246
– Oz Reporting Season Quiz: who's going to surprise to the upside? RBS is tipping Monadelphous (MND) – the broker has opened a 'Trading Buy'
– ALS results on Tue; unless volumes fall materially in FY12 earnings will grow, says CS. "On this basis ALS remains oversold" – proof on Tue?
– Oz market suffering from profit reporting angst. Watch out for Alesco (ALS) and GUD (GUD) results on Tue and Wed this week; trend = friend?
– I will be presenting at this year's Trading & Investing Expo in Sydney, check it out at http://www.tradingandinvestingexpo.com.au/special-offers/rudi-filapek-vandyck-offer/
