Last Week Analysis - Earnings from Apple,Amazon and Windows 8 Launch


No matter what, Fed has already created the credit bubble by keeping the interest rate low for about 4 years. And this credit bubble will burst; this is going to be a very surprise and another disaster to the economy. The american workforce dropped to the lowest level in 31 years. Market is getting ready to crash! But the only question is whether it will happen immediately before or immediately after the US presidential election. Porlonged rate cuts helped to create new Jobs and reduce the unemployment news. Which in turn becomes negative on increasing the interest rate that is not positive for the market. In another look, market will not care about increasing the interest rate.

 

The earnings from Apple and its outlook clearly informs the market that it is slowing down because of two reasons: It is running out of new bullets and It is facing severe competition from Microsoft & its partners on both Windos 8 Phone and Surface Tablet. The future of Surface is too early to predict since we need to get statistics and feedback from the consumer market that will take about a couple of weeks to months. However it is surely created a big slow down to Apple. Amazon filed a loss of 23 cents per share on last quarter however market was expecting only 8 cents. Windows 8 launch Oct 25, 2012 is a new era for microsoft and to the world.


US will hold presidential elections on Nov 06, 2012


With respect to US long term treasury prices, TLT closed today at 122.64 which is a small gain from the last week close of 121.71. TLT reached its all time high point of 132.21 on July 25, 2012. In the short time, TLT may make a siginificant upward move. So if you are trading on US treasuries in the short term, it is a good time to take long position on US treasuries.

 

Last Week Low: 5641.75
