    Default This Week in Stocks: 6/11 - 6/15/07

    We may see a very rare event today. We could see the G, F, C, and S funds end the day flat (no gain or loss). It will be close as C and F could be up .01. I'm not sure about the I fund. I'll let the experts in 350Z's I fund thread figure that out.

    Because of the drop during the last half-hour, the I-fund will have not have a today-caused UfV but will just have a UfV to put it back even with MSCI.

    Could be a retest today. The big question is bounce or lower (S&P 1490 key). Europe is trending down and Dollar is trending up - ouch for I-fund.

    I know they used to show how many up and down days we had in the past.

    Now let's take a look at this market big picture. If real rates were reallying rising in anticipation of inflation ticking up wouldn't gold behave a little differently?? Its usually been a short-term inflation hedge. The metal recently broken below a short-term low and looks like it could take out the march low around $637/oz. The U.S. dollar index has had a nice rally the past few days so to me it looks like the economy is still healthy, inflation is pretty much in check and higher real rates won't be beating us on the head forever.

    We are coming close to the end of Q2 so we will be concentrating on earnings again and I have found that this is the kind of psychological background that usually pays to buy into.

    Looks like the FTSE and EZ have got wind of something. I have noticed that when ED is scheduled to comes out the FTSE tries to anticipate the report. Hope they are correct.

    Tom used a very appropriate phrase this morning-

    ...schizophrenic behavior...


    Very apt.

    G fund= 11.97 unchanged
    F fund = 11.15 unchanged
    C fund = 16.99 up +.08 cents
    S fund = 20.68 up +.13 cents
    I fund = 24.34 up +.11 cents

    I have absolutely NO IDEA what tomorrow will bring.

    This market is interesting, to say the least...
