LAST NIGHT’S MARKET
Stocks fall over 1% with investors moving into bonds and high yielding stocks as a safe have from deflation and anticipation of sustained global slowdown. With the risk of global deflation the winner will be the US dollar which will continue to rise. Some bearish analysts believe that the 1,000 point drop on 6 May was just a warning of things to come but others believe there are good buying opportunities coming up. The individual must make up his own mind. It’s always good to have cash on the side waiting for a big drop. You don’t ever want to be 100% invested in stocks and at times like these if you have a margin loan you won’t be sleeping well at night.

It is a very very volatile market at the moment and staying on the side lines with a bunch of cash would seem like a sensible thing to do in these times. If you are going to invest use sound judgement. Consider what is happening in the world and definitely don’t listen to politicians or analysts. They got it way wrong in 2008.
I’ve been talking to people in the home loans business,builders and to real estate people and the consensus is that there is not much action out there. The builder said things are really slow, the home loans guy said there are not many people out here with money and banks are tough on lending and the real estate agent said prices and buyers have pulled back.
