A Tight Tax Leash Constrains Americans

Posted on by The INO.com Team

By Nick Giambruno, Editor, International Man

Many readers are already well aware that the US government is essentially unique—and not in a good way—in how it treats its citizens living and working in foreign countries. No other country in the developed world imposes and effectively enforces as many burdens on its citizens abroad (and those who would do business with them) as does the US government.

Whether it is filing and paying taxes to both a foreign government and the US government, the reporting of foreign financial assets (FBAR and Form 8938), or saddling foreign financial institutions with extra compliance costs for dealing with US citizens (FATCA), among others, the root cause of these burdens is a system of citizenship-based taxation (CBT).

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 24th of July.

Yesterday, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) surprised analysts with better-than-expected iPhone sales, and indicated that it expects a "busy fall" with new products.

In after-hours trading, the market voted with a dramatic 5% rally in Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL). If you haven't already watched my special report first published on 07/13/13 on Apple, watch it here.

Is Netflix The New HBO?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

I am taking a little time off up at my summer home in Maine, mainly to escape the heat and humidity of Maryland. My home is about 10 miles from Brunswick, home to Bowdoin College, a nationally renowned liberal arts school. I say that for a reason, because one of Bowdoin's most famous alumni is a gentleman named Reed Hastings. Now Reed Hastings is not exactly a household name, but certainly the company he founded in 1998 is … the name of that company is Netflix.

I just finished watching an interview with Reed Hastings and wow, is he ever focused on delivering a first-class customer experience. Before I go any further and for full disclosure I do subscribe to both Netflix's streaming and DVD service.

As Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) just announced their earnings yesterday after the bell, I thought maybe it's time to update my outlook on this stock again. I have been talking about this stock's upside potential for months and I am not alone as Carl Ichan also likes Netflix and is one of its biggest investors. Yesterday's dramatic drop after Netflix announced its earnings was perhaps a little bit of a knee-jerk reaction. In today's video, I will be looking at both long-term and intermediate-term trends using MarketClub's tried and trusted Trade Triangle technology.

The old adage of "follow the money" applies to all stocks and is the right one to use, in my opinion. So without further ado, let's delve into the world of Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) and see where it has come from and where it's going.

Precious Metals Must Make a Stronger Statement Still

Posted on by admin

Yesterday was an impulsive looking move and something of a statement in itself.  But now technically, the metals and miners need to gather themselves (after a potential pullback on profit taking) and make a real statement.

Yesterday was the booster stage (gap up), and another leg up from here would give the precious metals complex the velocity to do some real damage with respect to upside targets.  That is because important resistance zones are now at hand.  While a pullback would be normal, gold bugs obviously do not want to see a terminal velocity situation where yesterday’s momentum erodes beyond normal profit taking.
