It's An All Syrian Headache Of A Weekend

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 6th of September.

Early this morning, I had a reporter call me in regards to the non-farm payrolls and my thoughts on what I expected. I must admit, non-farm payrolls was the furthest thing from my mind as I believe the market and the world is becoming consumed with Syria.

It seems we have half of the world against us, including Russia and China, which is not a good thing. Why we did not wait for the UN to provide some political cover is beyond me. I think President Obama has unfortunately dug a big hole for himself and is not sure how to get out of it. Continue reading "It's An All Syrian Headache Of A Weekend"

Here's A Little Stock That Is Primed For Big Gains

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Thursday, the 5th of September.

With all of the major indices in a choppy sideways pattern, it has become a stock picker's market. One stock that I like is Dollar General (NYSE:DG). This stock meets all of the criteria I look for in a stock:

1) It is in a strong uptrend.
2) It has just broken out to new highs.
3) It is coming from a strong base, capable of carrying it 20%+ higher.

Today, I will put Dollar General under a microscope and see if it is worthy of an investment.

Would you buy stock in Dollar General? Continue reading "Here's A Little Stock That Is Primed For Big Gains"

Here is an offer you can't refuse

images-1 Not only am I a big tennis fan, but I am also an avid tennis player who loves to play as much as possible. I thoroughly enjoy the exercise and the competitive nature of the game. I've been lucky enough to see or visit most of the Grand Slam tennis venues around the world, like the Rod Laver Arena, home of the Australian Open, Wimbledon in England, and Roland Garros, home of the French Open. But for sheer excitement and crazy crowds, nothing comes close to the U.S. Open played at Flushing Meadows. The good news is that is the U.S. Tennis Open is underway  right now.

I mention this not to impress you with my travels, but to point out an amazing tennis player and why he is like a good trader. Continue reading "Here is an offer you can't refuse"

Today's Video Update: Is Dennis Rodman Our Official Ambassador To North Korea? Maybe The White House Should Ask Him To Go To Syria; Crazier Things Have Been Known To Happen and It's Only Tuesday!

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 3rd of September.

Well, here we are in a brand new trading month and there is a lot going on. I think front and center we have to be concerned about Syria and what's going to happen. Speaker Boehner came out today and said he will support President Obama's action of limited engagement with Syria.

This attitude goes against three quarters of the American people who do not want to see any kind of intervention. Every poll I have seen indicates that most Americans do not want to be involved in Syria in anyway. Continue reading "Today's Video Update: Is Dennis Rodman Our Official Ambassador To North Korea?

"Reverse the forces that have conspired for decades against working Americans" Imagine who said those words?

For some reason, I received an email this past Labor Day from the White House. I am not sure how theWhite House acquired my email address but, I guess I could ask the NSA. I was not alone as I'm sure this same email went out to millions of other Americans.whitehouse 2 email

I decided to join in the fun and watch the video. As I expected, there were a lot of warm and fuzzy words and images of workers in factories. What came next, after 1 minute and 26 seconds really shocked me, the President of the United States said these words...

"reverse the forces that have conspired for decades against working Americans".

You can view the video here or click on the White House email image.

Who the heck was President Obama referring to when he used those exact words, "reverse the forces that have conspired for decades against working Americans"?

These words really bothered me; I could not believe what I was hearing. A Conspiracy? Did I miss something? Do you mean that all companies have been conspiring against their workers for decades Mr. President? If not companies, then who is conspiring against American workers? American workers made this country great, and for the most part they are well paid and respected.
