​We see further proof above of the deflationary aspect to Commodities in general.

​​As we mentioned in our earlier posts, there has been an overall decline in prices for most commodities.​

A more important point however, is, could we have seen this important trend coming? . . .

That answer is . . . . Yes. In fact, let's look at the Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (S&P GSCI) chart shown above and take note of that gold-colored circle we find just after the very top in the Index.

This is the exact price area where one of our clients who is using 'The Fibonacci Trends' Trading Technique could have detected the shift in price trend for commodities in general (as represented by this index).

This was early enough to take appropriate short positions in the select commodities measured by this index. The S&P GSCI is one of the most closely watched indexes in the Market and tracks the price activity in 24-commodity futures.

The profit potential of having such a skill working for you in analyzing the markets can only, at least, be said to be incredible.

Be kind to yourself this Holiday Season. Give yourself a Gift that keeps on Giving and, which will reduce your trading stresses and decisions to the essential minimum number necessary.

​Where Two Strong ​Currencies Combine . . .

​YOU'LL FIND OPPORTUNITY!

In our previous posts, we found that the US and Brazilian Economies were two STRONG Economies for 

​2018. We know that the US Dollar has been Strong, but, when we COMBINE the US Dollar (USD) with the Brazilian Real (BRL)​ or the USD/BRL, it becomes 'magical' (and profitable!).

​The chart for the ​​USD/BRL is shown above. Healthy gains have been realized even within the last month and, over 20% for the Year. ​The chart also shows where our 'Fibonacci Trends' Trading Method would have indicated the recent shift upwards after the re-tracement from September price highs.

What makes most of the world's currency investors turn negative or 'gun shy' are when they become accustomed to only the few major choices provided by most banks and brokerages.​

​Opportunities exist elsewhere with other currency pairs and, one should have a forex broker that can provide a larger choice of those opportunities. Preferably, you'll find a broker that can give you access to other markets as well (like CFDs on stocks, commodities, etc.). I'​ll have a suggested one for you in future posts pending further investigation.

An Excellent Trading Method (or three) and, a good Broker. That makes for a winning ticket!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

​​20% Gains like those that took place this year in the US Dollar vs. Brazilian Real truly stand out when compared with losses almost everywhere else this past year.

​​Positive Gains are still out there for those with a widening vision about where profits can be made.

Remember: Opportunity Occurs Where Everyone Else Isn't Looking!

​Two More Strong Stock Markets . . .

​In my previous post and in my efforts to show how Deflation was acting globally, I overlooked several additional Markets that have displayed enviable strength this past year. Let's look at two of them now.

​​While most countries struggled through the last year only to come up with net losses, these two Stock Indexes made GAINS, Strong Gains: The​se are the Nikkei 225 Japanese Stock Market Index and the Russian MICEX Stock Index.

​The chart for the ​Nikkei 225 Stock Index is shown above. Healthy gains have been realized when looking at the long-term gains over several year's time.

The ​long-term (year-after-year) trend should be considered as any single year's returns won't be enough to break the longer-term trend.

The next Strong market of interest is one that's been made largely 'invisible' by the mainstream financial media (as it taints it's 'news' with a political slant that omits saying anything good about perceived competitors or 'enemies').​

​This is also an anti-competitive position as well, as, in the case of the Russian Stock Market Index (MICEX), they have a market that is vastly outperforming most of the World's Stock Markets at present. There's no Deflation evident in this Market as you can see in the chart below . . .

The above chart for the Russian Stock Market shows how ​well ​the Russian Economy is going despite what you read in the news or see on tv.

​10% Gains truly stand out when compared with losses almost everywhere else this past year.

​​Japan, along with the US make up a significant proportion of the world's GDP. Both Markets are Strong. This is Positive.

​​Opportunities Abound. You Just Have To Be Able To Read The 'Signs'.

​​As entrepreneurs, investors and traders, we understand that opportunities for profit-taking shift locations from time-to-time, but, will always exist somewhere. Always! Here are two more markets which could have continued one's forward motion towards financial stability and accumulation. You need to be able to TIME the long-term position trades as well as the shorter-term ones. It's critical in order to keep losses and risks as low as possible.

​To reiterate, we need to pull our perspectives back to take in the abundant opportunities that exist elsewhere in the World, and then, act on the opportunities.

Also, To effectively do this, it's necessary for us to be equipped with the most Effective Trading Techniques and Knowledge to be able to detect just where those profit targets of opportunity are. ​

​To be able to sort the 'wheat from the chaff'.  This is the very best time of the Year to pick up those skills & knowledge.

​To continue our examination of the prevailing deflationary environment that defines the markets today, we now turn to what's still 'working', i.e., what markets are the strongest in the group?

​For this answer, we have merely to consult our post from yesterday and find the chart of Equity & Bond Performance over the last year's time. We'll find only 2 Markets 'still standing' in a vast field of losers: The United States and Brazil.

​The chart for the US Stock Market (as represented by the Dow Jones Industrial Averages), is shown above.

The major uptrend that started back in the depths of 2009 is still in play. Although, we are in a weakened position at present, when looking at the Monthly chart for the market, we see clearly the uptrend is largely intact.

​This Market is still strong probably because of the economic reforms that have be instituted recently. Capitalism is still strong in the US, while the rest of the world is experiencing the inevitable bad harvests of socialism and burdensome regulations. This seems to be the common thread connecting two seemingly separate economies; that of the US and Brazil, where a new pro-capitalism president has taken office and where populism is also on the upswing.

The above chart for the Brazilian Stock Market shows how ​well Brazil has recovered from it's pull-back of the last few years. It's now well-positioned to launch even further ahead while everyone else's attentions are on other areas of the world and trade issues.

After all, since 2016, the Brazilian Bovespa has made gains of over 215%, this while most markets have accumulated Losses, not gains.

​Also, keep in mind the relative strengths of the different national economies. Globalism theories aside, there are really only two ​major drivers of the world's economies at present, the US and China. China, however, is in retreat at the moment as it deals with it's trade and banking issues.

​When either of these two sneezes, the rest of the world is going to catch cold!

​However, as entrepreneurs, investors and traders, we understand that opportunities for profit-taking shift locations from time-to-time, but, will always exist somewhere. Always!

We need to pull our perspectives back to take in the abundant opportunities that exist elsewhere in the World. ​

Also, To effectively do this it''s necessary for us to be equipped with the most effective trading techniques and Knowledge to be able to detect just where those profit targets of opportunity are. ​

​To be able to sort the 'wheat from the chaff'.  This is the very best time of the Year to pick up those skills & knowledge.

Have We Now Entered a Deflationary Era?

The signs have begun to reveal themselves slowly over the past months. And, recently the Stock Markets have joined in to indicate that we may well be entering a deflationary error. These aren't anything new, but, we haven't experienced a protracted period like this in quite some time.

The most famous of the last Century were the period following the 1929 Stock Market Crash period and the severe 1974 deep recession.

What are the clues to this scenario repeating? How about we look at the overall returns in, not just a few, but many markets world-wide over the last year to start. When we do, we find results like those shown on the graphic below . . .

The above graphic shows how International Stock & Bond Markets have performed, and, with the exception of just 3 nations, all have been in the loss column over the year past. This is a strong clue that we're dealing with a global slowdown and not a local one only. In fact, the US is the strongest market still of all the rest shown.

But, as we look a little deeper, we find further confirmation in the commodity and currency markets as well (see the chart below).

Above, we see at a quick glance, 47-Markets of all kinds including Currencies, Commodities and Stock Indexes.

A quick look at the amount of red on the bars shows that losses clearly dominate over gains.

As it turns out, 38 out of 47 markets showed losses (80%).

What does this insight do for us as traders and investors? Well, for the longer-term it means that these 'loss' markets are actually inclined to go down with the deflationary trend. That means they'll provide more profit opportunity on the Short side for trading going forward.

We'll examine this a little closer in upcoming posts.

Season's Greetings!!!
