Starbucks Corp. (NASDAQ:SBUX) Under The Microscope

Let me start off by saying that I think Starbucks Corp.(NASDAQ:SBUX) makes a great cup of coffee and provides a very good service. Having said that, I don't like the stock of Starbucks right now.

Today a monthly red Trade Triangle triggered, which is the first monthly Trade Triangle we have had in 14 months. This is a significant technical development and it indicates changes in the picture and direction of Starbucks and should not be ignored. Continue reading "Starbucks Corp.

Will These 3 Laggard Stocks Outperform In 2014?

By Tim Melvin

The best performing stocks in the S&P 500 in the past year have been Netflix, Micron Technology, Best Buy, Delta Airlines and Constellation Brands.

The interesting thing about these stocks is that as investors came into the year, they were not on anyone's list of top performers or even likely winners. Most of them were on the worst performing list for 2012 and with the exception of Netflix, there was very little market buzz or chatter about any of these stocks.

The rest of the top ten performers include names like Pitney Bowes and Boston Scientific, whose very existence was being questioned by many as 2013 began. Continue reading "Will These 3 Laggard Stocks Outperform In 2014?"

A Glimpse into the Coming Collapse

By Jeff Thomas, International Man

Beginning in 1999, we predicted a systemic economic collapse that would take place in the First World and would impact all other economies. We began to list some of the "dominoes" that would fall as the collapse evolved and described that the "Great Unravelling," as we termed it, would take roughly ten years. At that time, we guesstimated that the first two of the dominoes, a real estate crash and subsequent stock market crash in the US, would begin in about 2005.

We were premature in this prediction, as the first of the crashes did not occur until 2007. And, truth be told, we have frequently been incorrect in the timing of the other dominoes. Whilst the actual events have been predicted correctly, our timing has often been incorrect. In every such case, the prediction has been premature.

Sadly, however, the prediction of the events of the collapse have been almost entirely correct. Continue reading "A Glimpse into the Coming Collapse"

Gold Futures

Gold futures are trading higher for the 2nd consecutive trading session ending the week slightly higher finishing up $13 this Friday afternoon at 1,253 near a 4 week high as there’s a possibility that gold prices have bottomed in the short term as 1,180 could be a double bottom. Gold is trading above its 20 day but below its 100 day which tells you the trend is mixed and I would still sit on the sidelines and wait for a real trend to develop at this time as I think there still a possibility of another retest of the 1,180 as the U.S dollar looks like it has bottomed and that might put some pressure on gold once again.
