Venezuela: outlook for investors

Venezuela: outlook for investors

For many years mass media from different parts of the world have been highlighting the situation in Venezuela. Sometimes the highlights are controversial: some media report that Venezuela is one the verge of economic collapse (According to Forbes, it is one of the world’s 10 worst economies). Others report that in terms of GDP-per-capita it is Latin America’s number 3 ($12 600), thus yielding only to Chile and Argentina. It is also Latin America’s 3rd biggest economy after Mexico and Brazil. It is reported that in the first half of 2011 Venezuela’s GDP gained 4.5%.

Therefore, these days Venezuela seems to be a striking example of how a country can live without US advisors and their subsidies ,especially against the background of continuous protests against “financial terrorism” in the USA and Europe.

Obviously, the truth, as usual, lies somewhere between the 2 extremes. Yet there are no other people who need this truth as desperately as investors. Investments always carry certain risks, it is vital for an investor to make a comprehensive analysis of the economic model of the country he/she is going to invest in. it is crucial to define all the strengths and weaknesses.

Nouriel Roubini: USA, UK and Europe have 12 months to avoid recession

Nouriel Roubini, co-founder and chairman of Roubini Global Economics LLC., assumes that some of the most powerful economies in the world may face a recession if they do not take urgent steps within a year:

“Unfortunately, in my view there is a risk, at least a 50 percent probability, that in the U.S., in the eurozone, in the United Kingdom, and in most advanced economies, the future in the next 12 months might suggest a recession, a downturn, rather than reacceleration of growth…”
The eurozone crisis is escalating. Mr. Roubini assumes that it may spread over other economies outside the region as the steps taken by EU leaders are not sufficient to overcome the crisis.

PAMM 2.0 on the Verge of Artistry

As it was informed by "Market Leader (US)"

PAMM 2.0 on the Verge of Artistry

Market Leader continues closely looking at a new system of accounts, PAMM 2.0 - a unique product of Forex Trend. What is the reason for such intense interest?

PAMM 2.0 was designed as a logical continuation of PAMM accounts. The design process was mainly focused on ensuring security of investor funds. It is an open secret that sometimes an excessively enthusiastic managing trader flew into a passion only to lose all investor's money and was, in the meantime, not liable at all. If we add that the investor-manager link is rather virtual in nature as a result of development of internet technologies and money is absolutely real, it becomes clear why potential investors are very circumspect and unwilling to trust their funds to a trader they don't know at all. The risk is too high.

Forex brands: value and significance

As reported by «Market Leader» (US)

Forex brands: value and significance

The value of a brand is one of the major factors that should be considered when estimating any company’s prospects. For example, Coca-Cola or Pepsi-Cola cost billions of dollars, so a small-scale beverage company has no chances to compete with such giants.

What are the difficulties of estimating Forex brands?

First of all, their stocks are not openly sold in stock markets and there is no transparent bookkeeping when it comes to Forex brokers or dealing centers. As a result, novice traders cannot tell a genuine “brilliant” from a fake one.
Sometimes successful traders have problems withdrawing their profits as their unreliable brokers refuse to pay. Masterforex-V Academy has already counted at least a dozen of such cases of non-payments: after making substantial profits some students of Masterforex-V Academy decided to withdraw the money but found themselves in trouble as their brokers had refused to pay. The value of a Forex broking company’s brand is a hidden sign that can tell a lot about how reliable the broker is:

Who won and lost from the disintegration of the USSR?

On August 19th it was 20 years since the failed Soviet coup d'état attempt (19–21 August 1991), also known as the August Putsch or August Coup. The State Committee of the State of Emergency’s spontaneous and uncoordinated actions finished off the USSR.
The disintegration of the USSR disappointed many of those who later found themselves living in one of the 15 independent states of the former USSR.
Let’s look at the consequences in terms of figures, which is the only objective language for traders and investors:

What Forex brokers offer interest on idle capital?

As it was informed by "Market Leader (US)"

What Forex brokers offer interest on idle capital?

 

 

In order to trade Forex (or any other financial market) you need to open a trading account with a broking company. Most Forex traders make substantial deposits ($10K - $100K or even more). If you, as a professional trader, observe money management rules (2-5% per trade), then most of your deposited capital is idle most of the time. Some brokers decided to offer their clients some pleasant bonuses, including annual interests accrued on the idle (free) part of their deposits. What are those broking companies and dealing centers? Which brokers offer the biggest interest? Do such bonuses mean that a certain broker or dealing center offering them is “dirty”?

S&P500: volatility analysis in terms of option trading.

As it was informed by "Market Leader (US)"

S&P500: volatility analysis in terms of option trading.

Last week the S&P500 index futures tried to break below the bottom of the 1077-1230 range. However that was a false breakout, with the price coming back into the range. By the end of the week the futures reached a major resistance around the 50-day MA, which is still unbroken. Once the resistance is not overcome in the short run, the S&P500 will go further down. In this case the following levels will act as supports: 1100, 1068, 1050. Otherwise, if the 50-day MA is overcome, the price may encounter resistance at 1200, 1250, 1230 and around the 200-day MA.

Break of a Sloping Channel - Sufficient Reason to Enter into a Trade?

Classical literature on stock market analysis puts great emphasis on searching signs of a trend change. Reversal patterns, trend lines and sloping channels are mainly used for this.

I suggest we dwell on sloping channels and trend lines.
In their books, a number of authors try to represent 'the most secure' methods of drawing these tools that help to 'most accurately' define the point where the trend changes and the trade should be made.

What should the USA learn from Russia and China?

US news. Last week in Cleveland the head of US Federal Reserve System (FRS) Ben Bernanke was rather critical about the White House policy and the government of other leading countries worldwide.

The inability of developed countries’ governments to implement key economic principles in practice encourages “to take several lessons”, as claimed by the FRS head, from such developed countries as China, India, etc. Moreover, B.Bernanke rather specifically indicated the directions in which economic giants should take after developing countries:
■rough fiscal discipline;
■free trade;
■state investments;
■education and science support.

Greece: balance of interests is out

As it was informed by "Market Leader (US)"

Greece: balance of interests is out

Greece badly needs money. Time is running out. If there no more tranche of help, the available means will not be enough to service the national debt and to pay out wages and pensions, which basically is a default.
The difficulty is the fact that it is extremely difficult to reduce the budget deficit to the extent, which is required by the creditors “trio”, which consists of EU, IMF, and ECB. Sunday evening during the special government session it turned out that according to the results of 2011 the budget deficit amounted to 8.5% from GDP, instead of planned 7.6%. Forecast for 2012 also worsened.
Were these circumstances the reason of a gap in EURUSD pair at the opening of today’s trading?
