( I cannot name them all, just too many in the past 24 months) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not an economist, and I do not have a PHD.   just do the math.  &lt;br /&gt;If we tallies all these packages, $3 trillions committed, but the main street economy growth is still slow.  Let say 3% growth GDP with 2% being pumped by governments and taxpayers.  So, we are looking at 1% growth.    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bottom line; the economy is still in sluggish mode and needs more demand from consumers and private sectors to boost recovery back to 2006 – 2007 level.    The current valuation of stocks, bonds and commodities are in bubble level.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are the results/facts in the market place right now:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-The Dow ran up 1000 pts from recent July low to current level near 11,000. &lt;br /&gt;-US dollar purchasing power losts 6.5% in September.  Annualized rate of 78% decline. &lt;br /&gt;-US 10 year note yield at all time low.  2.37%&lt;br /&gt;-Uncle Benny Federal Reserve rate at near 0% ;  &lt;br /&gt;-USD/Yen rate: with Japanese central banks intervention, it’s still trading near the 15 year high against the USD.   Japan lowered the rate again to zero.  &lt;br /&gt;-Gold, silver, platinum all trading at near historical high.  Gold all time high.  Silver 30 year high.  &lt;br /&gt;-Chinese yuan exchange rate at all time high against USD and Euro. &lt;br /&gt;-China is buying Yen to prevent the cheap yen export in the globalized trade environment.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, in economic 101, everything’s price went up while the US dollar index is heading south. We are in the uncharted territory, only happened first time ever in history that means money printing to suppress the natural cycles of the market by the Uncle Benny Federal Reserve.   We are steps closer to possible major currencies war. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/financetopics/financialcrisis/8045133/IMF-chief-fears-risk-of-currency-war-after-Japans-zero-interest-rate-move.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Per analysis by Ticker Forum, one of the original tea party movement members, Karl Denninger, the big money bonds players are pricing US 2 and 10 year note yield in a serious deflationary environment in the future.  This yield is the leading indicator of the future stock market valuation.  (the lower the yield, the lower the valuation of the stock market)   just look at the 2000 and 2007 movement, you would notice the difference.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The bigger the top, the bigger the drop”  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;let the pundits at CNBC and Bloomberg continue pumping more stocks and about federal reserve led 'money printing recovery'.   Throughout history, printing money will not lead to a prosperous ending.  Just look at the 1920s Germany and 1990s Japan.  One ended in hyperinflation currency collapse while electing a future warlord dictator and the other has been in recession almost 20 years with its stock market index trading at 75% off from the 1989 peak.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6971228335224534775-2295673651533849341?l=metrocapital.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://metrocapital.blogspot.com/feeds/2295673651533849341/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6971228335224534775&amp;postID=2295673651533849341' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6971228335224534775/posts/default/2295673651533849341'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6971228335224534775/posts/default/2295673651533849341'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://metrocapital.blogspot.com/2010/10/party-like-1999-and-2007-worldwide.html' title='Party like 1999 and 2007;  Worldwide currencies war officially begun in September 2010??'/><author><name>Bill Hong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01663869523524888285</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6971228335224534775.post-3035731367844032313</id><published>2008-11-20T21:36:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-20T21:40:01.447-08:00</updated><title type='text'>BLACK HOLE 2009  “November 21st update”</title><content type='html'>BLACK HOLE 2009  “November 21st update”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As this point, the market has reached the new low since 2003 and broke a number of critical supports.  Dow Jones index broke the psychological support intraday low level of 7737 set on October 10, 2008.  S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq both finished to new low this year. The recent market movement is telling us something.  We are NOT out of the danger zone yet.  You would be misled by the mainstream media that things will get better in the 2nd half of 2009 and early 2010.  AGAIN. Didn’t we hear this back in November 2007, we would have a summer recovery in 2008 as the Fed began to cut interest rate back then. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Financial guru and experts are calling out we will suffer another Depression II in 2010 to 2012.  The chance of this happening is still ANYBODY'S GUESS!  WHY?  Because if we step backward a little bit, the cause of the doom and gloom outlook is the recent CONSUMERS behavior pattern has been in 360 degree complete reversal since the collapse of the stocks, bonds and commodities markets starting in mid-September.  That’s it!  Sure! A number of big corporations have been bailed out and some are out of business.  The truth of the matter is… it’s only happening in wall street and financial markets.  It’s still early in the game whether or not we would be in Depression mode.  Recession YES.  DEPRESSION. YOU DECIDE.  We, the CONSUMERS, will decide the final outcome of this.  It will be a tough ride, but I am sure majority of us would not want to see a repeat of 1929 and lost decade of 1930s. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What should do we next?  Expect the Dow Jones index to be around 5000 to 6000 area in the next 3 to 6 months.  The 4th quarter outlook for consumers’ confidence, GDP growth (contraction), retail sales and unemployment would be VERY UGLY.  Moreover, malls and retailers in US have been giving out Christmas sales to try to boost up revenue before the final tally close up by Christmas season.  One thing I know for sure, it would be one of the worst Christmas sales season we have since early 1980s.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For time being, even though the media has been hyping for a deflationary economic environment, I strongly suggest you to buy some physical gold and silver to hedge against future civil unrest and zero interest rates all over the G-20 nations.  As more bailouts and intervention made by central banks and government, holding fiat currency paper is destined to be ultimate losers of this financial black hole. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take care, stay liquid and be safe!  Just prepare and we would be the last ones standing in this troubled time.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6971228335224534775-3035731367844032313?l=metrocapital.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://metrocapital.blogspot.com/feeds/3035731367844032313/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6971228335224534775&amp;postID=3035731367844032313' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6971228335224534775/posts/default/3035731367844032313'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6971228335224534775/posts/default/3035731367844032313'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://metrocapital.blogspot.com/2008/11/black-hole-2009-november-21st-update.html' title='BLACK HOLE 2009  “November 21st update”'/><author><name>Bill Hong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01663869523524888285</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6971228335224534775.post-7029341037247916118</id><published>2008-10-24T05:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-24T06:02:49.196-07:00</updated><title type='text'>black hole 2009 update</title><content type='html'>as of this writing, S&amp;amp;P future is frozen due to downside limit.  Looks like the credit crunch has been spreading to Asia, (most notably Korea and Japan -- off to 10 year and 5 year low) and possibly other South America countries beside Argentina could be in danger too.  unfortunately, there is a good chance the next shoes to drop is the world currency.  bluntly speaking, even the cash we are holding on could be worthless pretty soon.  Dont forget the market has not priced in the upcoming stagflation and hyper-inflationary period. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Therefore, this is the good time to snap up some physical gold and silver to hedge against further meltdown.  at the end of the day, you have something leftover instead of nothing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At this point, you may throw out those technical support points for all market because we cannot prevent irrational folks doing panic selling at this moment.  DO IT SOON.  before it's too late.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not a financial tsunami.  this is black hole where something must give to calm this crisis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GOOD luck!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6971228335224534775-7029341037247916118?l=metrocapital.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://metrocapital.blogspot.com/feeds/7029341037247916118/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6971228335224534775&amp;postID=7029341037247916118' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6971228335224534775/posts/default/7029341037247916118'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6971228335224534775/posts/default/7029341037247916118'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://metrocapital.blogspot.com/2008/10/black-hole-2009-update.html' title='black hole 2009 update'/><author><name>Bill Hong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01663869523524888285</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6971228335224534775.post-6240430484433240909</id><published>2008-10-08T21:10:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-08T21:12:28.725-07:00</updated><title type='text'>BLACK HOLE 2009</title><content type='html'>BLACK HOLE 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ladies and Gentlemen: when you get a chance, time to prepare for black hole 2009.  No doubt, the recent financial crisis in Europe will continue and possibly will bring more fear to Asia soon and worse around the world.  There are three things that people should be aware that mainstream media hasn’t fully covered thoroughly the truth out there. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, the credit default swaps (CDS) in the banking system will be a bottomless hole that the governments and world banks cannot cover up and settle the outstanding derivative contracts.  Based on the source from Bloomberg and Fortune magazine, there is $62 trillion dollars of CDS sitting in the system.  Subprime MBS is NOT the cause of the current crisis.  It was a tip of the iceberg.  Who is going to pay/trade for CDS  No body knows.   Maybe, looking at Henry Paulson expression last week., he said it all.  They must act now to buy more time!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Second, the interbank rate (loan rate between institutions and banks lending to each other) has been UP UP UP for 1 month, 2 month, 3 month term-loan.  NO significant adjustment occurs that we are out of the panic and danger area.  The rate is telling us the banks DO NOT trust each other.  Why bother lending to someone who might be in trouble later on??  Another important impact, small and medium businesses would be suffering from lack of liquidity to pay off payables and salaries.  Just imagine taking out high rate credit line to pay off normal expenses.  The owners would take major hit on this.  Workers might not get their pay-check in the near future. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Third, misery index (unemployment and inflation) has been rising.   Latest US employment report shows a 9 consecutive monthly job decline.  Although the rate was unchanged, the government has been trying to paint a solid picture.  The trend has been the same in Europe.  Asian would not be alone.  Japan is near recession and the exports sectors South East Asian countries would feel the pain eventually when US and Europe confirmed their economic recession.   On the inflation front, the food and energy price have been stabilized but no adjustment due ot lack of demand.  Therefore, normal citizens are continuing to pay high prices while the economic outlook is negative and workers might lose their jobs if new round of laid off occurs. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At this point, I don’t know what will happen, how will happen and when will happen.  All I know for sure is that the banking system has been reverted back to 1907.  YES. You read it correctly 1907.  The turning point was when AIG needs 85 billions USDs temporarily loan from US Federal Reserve, the banking and insurance industries are virtually INSOLVENT with the exception of a few players such as Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Citibank, Warren Buffett standing w/ government backing and supports.   If you look at a bigger picture, some Central Banks around the world holding US notes and dollars are taking major hits in their portfolio.  The $770 billion law only allow more time for politicians and bankers to buy more time to do MORE coverup. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, time to start use ATMs and get some cash.  Collect silver and gold coins to protect your assets.  Good luck!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6971228335224534775-6240430484433240909?l=metrocapital.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://metrocapital.blogspot.com/feeds/6240430484433240909/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6971228335224534775&amp;postID=6240430484433240909' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6971228335224534775/posts/default/6240430484433240909'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6971228335224534775/posts/default/6240430484433240909'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://metrocapital.blogspot.com/2008/10/black-hole-2009.html' title='BLACK HOLE 2009'/><author><name>Bill Hong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01663869523524888285</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6971228335224534775.post-6074360317624505494</id><published>2008-09-16T03:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-16T03:45:56.986-07:00</updated><title type='text'>HSI current outlook - Sept 16, 2008</title><content type='html'>Time to watch and buy some HK stocks as the emotional sell off brought the index to 22 months low at 18300 level.  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In my opinion, HSI is currently at pretty fair value.  If you are seeking a technical rebound, try to get in around 17500 to 18300 level.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;the easiest choice is 2800.HK (Tracker Fund HK).  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;it's stupid to predict the bottom.  But at this point, when fearful selling occurs, this is the time to snap up for a quick rebound.  if you are long term investors, pick up the china A index 2823.hk, 0820.hk and 2827.hk which track the A shares. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6971228335224534775-6074360317624505494?l=metrocapital.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://metrocapital.blogspot.com/feeds/6074360317624505494/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6971228335224534775&amp;postID=6074360317624505494' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6971228335224534775/posts/default/6074360317624505494'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6971228335224534775/posts/default/6074360317624505494'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://metrocapital.blogspot.com/2008/09/hsi-current-outlook-sept-16-2008.html' title='HSI current outlook - Sept 16, 2008'/><author><name>Bill Hong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01663869523524888285</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6971228335224534775.post-5824496135645911532</id><published>2008-09-16T03:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-16T03:41:42.904-07:00</updated><title type='text'>US Financial System R.I.P.  Sept 15, 2008</title><content type='html'>US Financial System R.I.P.  2008 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I feel extremely sad and disappointed as I am writing this title because the inevitable has finally arrived.  In July – Fannie and Freddie were bailed out by US taxpayers.  That was the indication that the mortgage business and real estate market were gone for good and the bailout would only reduce the shocks from the market.  In the spent of last 48 hours, the 4th and 5th largest investment banks in the WORLD collapsed.  It depends on how you defined it.  Lehman and Merrill have been technically insolvent since  Bear Stearn blew up in March 2008.   One is in bankruptcy filing now. The other disappeared as an unit of Bank of America.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As of this writing, AIG, one of the largest insurance companies in the world could be facing capital shortage and it has been down 70% since last Friday. What’s next?  To say AIG in trouble – this phrase is certainly unthinkable.  Now, it becomes thinkable.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, nobody knows what would happen next.  The current investing environment is similar to the one where our grandparents were facing back in the Great Depression Era.  Simply put, the folks back then were suffering from the aftermath of excessive credits built during the industrial revolution and roaring 1920s.   And the rest is history.  Are we going to face similar path?  We could be on the way.  if the Federal Reserve continue to lower interest rate, maybe to zero, we would be facing a long term deflation.  the one has been experienced by the Japanese since 1989.  (they havent recovered since when Nikei was trading at 40,000 level)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Forward looking.  The only investment class with conviction to buy is GOLD.  If you can buy physical GOLD, that would be better.  As a result of the current housing and credit bubble burst, central banks and government would continue to print more money to restore investors’ confidence.  By doing so, we are devaluing the currencies worldwide.  Forget about the 20% return year to year on your portfolio.  This is the most difficult time we would be facing since the stagflation period in late 1970s to early 1980s.  Again, we just don’t know the outcome and when and where something might happen.  It’s better to be safe than sorry.   Capital Preservation is the key to survive this current volatile investing environment. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets see how the policy makers around the world react to this.
