The market will retreat first and than rebound again. Feb is still the month for high.



But if you have shares on hand, better gain part of it first and wait for next move

The bonds price keep on running low. However remember to aware the agricultural Commodity.

The dry season and freezing weather will impact the future crop. I watch for two days since I have this sense. So beware the DBA ETF. It had climbed for 1USD in two days.


The Gold will retreat when the stock market is in good shape. Watch it to store up around 880

For oil, I still prefer to stock up in 1 st quarter once it is below 40.


The future Gold price is on up trend. Besides, the big amount of bonds issuing this weeks will somehow impact the dollars value. For sure, the USD will be in downtrend in lower half year

Another Opportunity to witness the interest rate effect

16 -17 Dec 2008 I really glad that I am able to witness the historic rate cut decision in this century. Having an almost zero interest rate in USD. It's the last bullet in interest rate.
