A Checkup

Krypto got off the couch to check her market model at the request of a commentor.  She sees that with a further pullback overseas (or dollar strength), that a weak buy signal for both European and Emerging Markets stocks could be generated.  Nothing else is close.

She's climbing back onto the couch to snooze.  Good doggy, here's a treat.

Word of the Day

"Nugatory" - adjective [$10]
Nugatory means 1. futile, trifling, worthless; 2. inoperative, not valid.
Sentence:  Program trading and high frequency trading by computers has rendered most old technical indicators, such as various market volume and advance-decline numbers, nugatory.  How can one use actions of computers to infer human decision?  Obviously no way, no how.

I believe I posted a few months ago that the commodity-emerging market-China theme was topping.

Krypto saw it and acted accordingly.

Krypto thinks China is due for consolidation; they has a lot of restructuring to do as the yuan rises & dollar falls; they has to shift from real estate building, etc. to domestic consumer demand.

As for a crash, I suppose that would be a sector by sector call.

I don't see US being hurt by a China slowdown. As they restructure & buy more US stuff/services US wil benefit.

uh Bud ... comments from a nation with no modern economy or currency don't even qualify as satire.

Sort of like asking a Commie about the stock market valuation.
