Why does the U.S. media be last to report what the world knows?

Hi readers

9:30am singapore time Saturday morning

What a week it's been .
So now Wall Street is coming to the realisation that China is seriously slowing down.
Don't blame the American people for being slow there media is seriously corrupted, as to what is allowed to be reported.
If you have been a reader for a while this is nothing new to you as you would have know this was coming for a while.
What makes me laugh even more is the dumb companies who said they would expand in China.
Oh yes who was it again, NFLX and AAPL.

Well we saw what happen to those stocks yesterday.
AAPL $105.76
NFLX $103.96

As for FB it's only going to catch up.

Just a quick comment ..
To the ,Dallas reader who took the $110 dec puts on AAPL, CONGRATULATIONS..
NICE TRADE.

Watch the banking stocks.

Next week we should see a bounce early followed by another sell off.
Next week will be one of those 24 hour a day weeks.. Get rest professionals action is coming.
Remember what we have been saying people ..
CHINA IS T HE CAUSE OF THE FINANCIAL MELT DOWN ..

Not Europe , or Greece or the U.S. raising rates.

That looks to me like it was just talk action, with no substance.
Yellen is on the verge of official puppet  statics.

Missed the opportunity and now we have a fed with only one bullet in the gun to defend the U.S. economy/ financial system..
Could be time to start being nice to the Germans and hope they step up to the plate.

Please don't get sucked into the gold safe heaven idea...
Cash is king

For the planners going forward.

Hi readers

Sorry for the delay posting been catch up with many business associates, haven't had time to post.

A number of analysts have been talking up the Chinese economy, say it just a dip but it's all come home to roost.
Regardless of what you read or believe China never grew more than 5% a year.
There economy would be far more advanced than what it is if it had.
This is the astrology showing what's really been going on.
The strong Neptune/Pluto in the Chinese chart has fooled many in the last 3 years and we still have some 4 years to go on it.
But as the planets move in different degrees so to will the strength of this illusion we have been in.
No we haven't peaked yet either.

Gold at the present time is getting that safe heaven buying which has stopped me out of my short position with a loss.
In regards to stocks,
 I finally grew the balls to short APPL .SHORTED the stock at $116.04 so see where it goes I guess.
Also increased NFLX short .. Stock is grossly overvalued.
Another also is LNKD.

On a positive note people TWTR will be bought out by FB.
At what price and when = at least a year or more from now and around the 15-20.
That means it will only get approval when the stock is around $5-10.
This will only change if the executives of the firm leave or resign.

For those who want to plan.

Above is the raw astrology for the U.S.,Asx200, Dax and Hang SENG.

I haven't included other markets as at the present time there seems to be a major hedging factor against the FTSE..

Please use the above as an indicator to your own work.
If it agrees then it's a true move.
If not then please just observe the move.

Quick note caution on banking stocks as they are not as secure as many believe.
A bank makes 9 billion in profit then capital raises 5 billion and the stock looses 15% in value..
Is there something wrong with that or am I seeing illusions?

I am not wrong either is the astrology, there are problems.

Not everything which is popular makes money?

Morning readers
7:30am Singapore time

There is no light at the end of the tunnel for TWTR!!!!!
That's the headline coming out of Wall Street.
I'm not going to say I told you so but that's business.
Regardless of what anyone thinks or believes Twitter is a great social portal which millions of people use, from sportsmen to media clowns like the Kardashians.
But does it make money the answer is NO.
In the market of dollars if your not making money and growing your finished.
It's a shame because this portal is huge for communication between relatives and friends around the world.
It's just another case of Americans wanting to stripe anything that has popularity for money I guess.

Facebook is worse with people stealing your identity, or stalking your every move but that's kept out of the media spotlight.
It's only a matter of time before a young journalist chases the story and exposes the truth.
Facebook will then collapse.
LNKD is another which has a lost business model, but that stock will be one which will rebound in 4 years time.
But until then $15-20 is what it's worth not $100+

Google is another where the stock is way overpriced in my view but the stock has such a strong birth chart that it will adapt to changing business environment and succeed.

Trade
My trade on gold got triggered so short $1120.

I'll post out next weeks astrology on Monday morning ...

Enjoy your weekend

General view

Morning readers
8am singapore time

So markets have accepted the devaluation of the yuan.
Question is now does the fed still move on rates after what the Chinese have just done?
There is far more to play out.
Many commentators now see it, while we have been saying it for years in advance.
2015 China is the seed that will collapse the world economy.
For the amateur astrologers you need to look at the leadership hand over birch chart to really understand China.
Not China's chart.
It is the same with US.
When Obama came into office his chart was very powerful and the country as a whole was always going to get out of the slump that was.
While many still believe BIG BEN was instrumental in saving the US economy, any astrologer worth his salt will tell you that decisions are made by government not foot soldiers saved the economy.

China is a very powerful and strong country but the leader and government is very weak astrologically speaking, no matter what they do it will create more problem and disasters.

Australia at the present time has a very difficult time, as there economy is so twisted into China.
The government and Mr Abbott has a very strong birth chart astrologically.
What's even more interesting is that 2 of his ministers (Robb & Hockey) can't do a thing wrong.
Whether it's acceptable is another thing to the people but these guys if they where in business now would be billionaires.
It will take time for Australian economy to adjust from raw mining to service product economy.
But it can and should be done.

Like wise is the chart of Hillary Clinton.
While she has an uphill battle to convice many white America male voters to give her a chance she will screw up at the beginning which will set her back.
But if this woman comes through and wins, the American economy will go to the next level.

When we look at the Donald while he speaks with passion and wants the best for the country, his Pluto indicates that the world will become his enemy, there is also many hidden agendas that his looking to also pursue.
Therefore he isn't the right many for leadership.
I know it might upset many but that's what the astrology is showing.

Readers any bounce in gold above 1120 I'm shorting.
Also A$ any bounce over the next 3 trading days over 74 is worth a short to 70 or even 68.

To the stock traders.
BHP UNDER $20 might be worth a trade but till then I wouldn't bother.
So much for $40 as my email friend keeps posting.
Reason I say this is because BHP is investing in finding oil and other metals, while others are cutting back.
Yes in 4 years from now BHP will be 35-40 but till then we might see $15 or even 10-15.
Once they cut forecast and lower expectations.
But of the two major companies (RIO & BHP) BHP better bet.
Rio will be taking over companies to catch up while BHP will organically grow.

To the American readers I'm doing the astrology on FB&TWTR, takeover or legal action as the astrology is showing a serious fight due to copy.

Yuan devaluation has just killed commodity prices

Morning readers

9:30am Singapore time
Yes holiday is over and time to make serious money.
What a reception to the new week we got!
Buffet bids to buy a company!
China has just devalued the yuan!
Last but not least it is official Australian people are slaves of the banks.
The most profitable banks In the world are in Australia.
So protectionism works people, the question is for how long.

So China has investigated that it's overseas funds and people wanting to buy assets outside of China that has caused the Stock market to crash? REALLY 

So let get back at the and devalue the yuan?
Costing more those who want to take money out of the country.
But is it a double edge sword or have the Chinese planned this all along?

I say this because the commodity sector has just realised now that without China a 10-20% price adjustment will take place.
All producers of commodities always knew that no matter what China would take up any surplus supply.
With China now all but ruling themselves out of the market for commodities, who takes up the slack.
Grains and energy are the first to take the hit.
Next will be metals and sorts and meats.

Sure China still requires commodities but the government has serious storage's and local supply will be priority over imports.

To the gold bugs please don't think this is good for gold it's not it actually the worst think with the Chinese not offering a floor to the price now.
Matter of time before the U.S. houses start attacking gold knowing full well there is no floor now.

Interesting to see now how both the Canadian and Australian central banks respond.
These countries economies are now on life support.

Cheap useless rubbish is about to hit the world markets as China will try to reboot it economy.
Hold firm if you don't need it why buy it !

In the property market there was as I thought huge buying by the Chinese.
Clearance rates where high but not records which was interesting.
So I'm keen to see what occurs next month or two.

So how's the darling stocks (AAPL,TWTR and NFLX) going to invest in a country which is just about to fall into recession.

You can't say you didn't know that trouble in China wasn't over.
More to come people ..

8/8 is coming... Last hope for property

Hi readers

Markets not doing to much at the moment ..
Some positions up some down.
I decided to just put some stops in and just ride it out.
As I stated previously astrology not strong either way at the present time.
Either bull or bear market will eat away at option premium at the present time as has been the case with every August.
Those in Asia know it's the U.S. holiday season and in Europe its skeleton staff.
Don't expect much.
In Asia it will be evident when an international order hits the market.
In particular Australia.
I suggest those who want to trade volatility Australia is the ideal market for the next 2-3 months.
As local super funds are almost fully invested in the market at the present time.
Any bad news will run the market lower with limited buyers on the opposite side.

In China, well that market at the moment is bordering on a cartel by the government.
Allowing only 36% of the market to trade.

In commodities at the present time just leave them alone..
Spreads on bid and ask are ridiculous and volume is crap.

This weekend is the 8/8 ..
As many of you know 8 is lucky in the Chinese culture.
The realestate industry will be banking on Chinese buyers to pump up prices.
I'll be keen to see the clearance rates around the world.

I'll never understand how western countries allow Asian buyers to own land yet in there country its only allowed by born residents.
Is there something wrong with this or am I missing something here?

As stated earlier astrology isn't strong either way so act accordingly.
Please don't be aggressive with volume size either, regardless of what you trade.

In regards to stocks ...

Got burnt on NFLX a little ..
Made a packet on TWTR ..

Wall Street has yet to get it through there head that you can't monetize everything people enjoy doing,
Or if it's on the net.
Even Facebook I seriously question the advertisers on it.
Are they getting value for money?
Sure you obtain exposure!
But what level of real sales are made from advertising on Facebook.

My view is zero!
Exposure yes!
Dollar return ???????

Just American accounting people. Be smart

As for APPL, well my $75-80 price looks realistic now...
As for NFLX , hedgefunds are buying it thinking we are all going to sit in front of a screen and watch TV

its all about China

Morning readers 2am Tuesday Rhodes time

Yesterday we saw how the Chinese government just don't get it.
When the Stockmarket starts to bleed of course it's going to filter down to the economy.
So trying to handcuff the Stockmarket and think that the economy won't suffer is stupid.
In fact it's the economy which has the ingredients to the Stockmarket suffering.
With 35% of stocks trading on the market at the present time it's no wonder why this is going to play out for a while.

When I did the astrology a number of years ago I couldn't understand how it would play out for so long?
The actions of government answered those question I had.
There are times where astrology does bring out some unusual conclusions and when you try to explain it, it's basically unexplainable.
3-4 years ago when I told people that China was to be the collapse of the world economy, many said to me no your wrong it's Europe and the PIGS ECONOMIES.

You are starting to see how the fruit is growing to the collapse.
U.S firms are looking at China growth yet the market is saturated from technology there yet U.S firm believe they can do better.
In my view!!!!! better at failing.
So believe me any company that what's to spend more of its resource in China will fail.
There will be the odd one which finds a loop whole but most will fail.

The knock off industry is thriving in China.
It just not being exported as was the case many years ago and the world has no idea it's going on.
The spin to it is that it's creating jobs for the Chinese at affordable prices to the consumers and as a result the government is turning a blind eye.
Why allow US firms to rape mother China.
That's how it's seen over there.
The government is looking after there own.
No one gives a shit about doing the right thing, that's why the world economy is in serious trouble.

Yellen know it too and need to reload bullets and be ready to act or else the U.S. will be a sitting duck in the next crisis.

When you see people of a second world nation going out to the mountains to cut wood to bring back to cook and keep warm it makes you wonder what is really going on in the world.
People simply can't afford the cost of living.

Anyway see what plays out I guess.

I'm still holding shorts from last week.
Little annoyed that it's against me at the present time but see what happen.
There are small negatives around for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
Thursday and Friday there are both positives and negatives so either use caution or close out on Wednesday as I will be.
The astrology this week isn't very strong so just be mindful of it.


Off to sleep
Cheers
