Summers’ Week Market Forecast (Words Are No Longer Enough Edition) April 16, 2012 By gpc1981 http://gainspainscapital.com ‘The markets have entered a very dangerous
environment in which even the usual market props (Fed Presidents calling for
more easing) are being overridden by market concerns for Europe.To whit, last
week, not one, but two Fed
Presidents (Yellen and Dudley), called for more easing/ QE. On the very same
day (April 11), the ECB issued a similar statement regarding the potential for
more easing. At any point in the last 18 months, these sorts of statements
would have kicked off a sharp rally in stocks. Instead, last week stocks posted
a one day gain (the verbal
interventions were on April 11) only to only to roll over again and close the
week with their worst performance thus far in 2012…’ , Guest
Post: When Does This Travesty Of A Mockery Of A Sham Finally End? Durden , Housing
Repenetrates Alleged Bottom As NAHB Index Misses By Most In 22 Months , Dave’s Daily: http://www.etfdigest.com 4-16-12 ‘The more conservative price-weighted
Dow Jones Industrial Average (DIA) rallied led mostly by higher priced
constituents (IBM, CAT, MMM, KO, DD and etc.) Tech and the S&P took a
different path with the former led lower by Apple and the latter with just
about everything else.The early Retail Sales report (.8% vs .3% consensus &
1% previous) was well-received early as even ex-auto & gasoline sales data
was fine. However, the Empire
State Mfg Survey (6.7 vs
18 consensus & 20.21 previous was a large negative miss. That was followed
quickly by Home Market Index (25 vs 29 consensus & prior 28) which was
another disappointment. Apple (AAPL) continues to see selling for the fifth
straight day as downside momentum builds. This added to the negative
sentiment.The selling taking place in Apple began with concerns about the eBook
publishing troubles. Some analysts wondered next whether many Apple owners
would be as willing as previously to upgrade to new products given higher costs
and new connectivity plans required for iPhones and iPads. For me, seeing the
outsized level of call options being bought by investors reflects too much
bullish speculation, meaning a correction would be likely.The dollar continued
to weaken on both euro repatriation thinking and a report
that China was allowing banks to short sell dollars. Argentina
seized 51% of YPF (majority owned oil & gas producer owned by Spain’s Repsol) in true communist third world style. (As if Spain didn’t
have enough problems at home.)Gold prices were lower while bond prices rallied
once again reducing yields.The deadline to fund an IRA and etc is Tuesday April
17, 2012 for the 2011 deduction is my understanding. This will lead to a spike
in some volume as individuals wait until the last moment to make their funding
contribution. Sure enough, volume was higher than recent trading days most
likely abetted by contributions which get invested quickly…’ , AAPL Plunges
Most In Six Months Durden , Spain Goes Irish
On Regions Slowly but surely, the Spanish authorities are gradually
socializing the rest of the world to the dismal truth that we have been so
vociferously arguing - that their debt levels (or more specifically their
debt/GDP ratios) are significantly higher (explicitly) than their current
official data suggest. Today's news, via the WSJ,
that the Spanish government may take
over some regions' finances ... Spain's Debt/GDP nearer 135% than its 'official' 68.5%…Spain has lost
the trust of financial markets… , Gallup

Post: Another Empty Obama Promise The extent of Obama’s duplicity continues
to grow apace. And yes — it’s duplicity. If you can’t or won’t fulfil a
promise, don’t make it. From Bloomberg: "Two years after President Barack Obama vowed to eliminate the danger of
financial institutions becoming “too big to fail,” the nation’s largest banks
are bigger than they were before the credit crisis." And the hilarious (or perhaps soul-destroying) thing? The
size of the banks isn’t even the major issue. AIG didn’t have to be bailed out
because of its size; AIG was bailed out because of its interconnectivity. If
AIG went down, it would have taken down assets on balance sheets of a great deal
more firms, thus perhaps triggering even more failures. So the issue is not
size, but systemic interconnectivity. And yes — that too is rising, measured in
terms of gross OTC derivatives exposure, as well as the size of the shadow
banking system (i.e. pseudo-money created not by lending but by securitisation)
— which sits, slumbering, a $35 trillion wall of inflationary liquidity ready
to crash down on the global dollar economy. , Liquidity Isn't
