Ireland debt downgrade killed the rally.........

Indices were in the green after Fed minute release, but Moody's timed it perfectly to downgrade Ireland debt to Junk status..which not only killed the rally but we went negative in all indices.

You never know in Wall Street, how billions are made in minutes.

Gold was the star after Fed release, Gold closed @ new all time high. Gold still has not crossed intraday high.

VIX jumped UP 8.05% @ 19.87....reaching top end of its range...

Stocks which were UP 1% or higher included LULU,SVM,UXG,
AUY,GG,FCX,CF,NTES,SLW,AG,GOOG......

AH Futures UP

AH Asian markets UP

AH Oil Down

AH Gold & Silver UP

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

  1. Saleem, SOL bounced back, $4.20 was a bottom. But Solar is still under the pressures from subsidy issues in some European countries. I’m long on LDK and SOL and would like to hear your opinion about solar industries and their future.
    Thank you in advance.

  2. Hi Tom,

    LDK & SOL will be fine in the long term.....currently Solar has one leader JKS which has benefitted as a strategy to buy poly in spot market.

    Make sure you are diversified in other sectors.

    Sometimes some sector are underperforming for an extended period.

  6. Saleem,
    Thanks for your comments. I trade SOL & LDK for about 3 years and I believe their price should come back but may take an extended period. The solar industries will be survived anyway.
