World Cup Finale: Emerging Market vs Developing Market team


As you already know the Brasil World Cup 2014 finale will be played between Germany (Developing Market team) vs Argentina (Emerging Market team).

Last time I've wrote about the World Cup I've applied a carry trade strategy by going long a basket of emerging currency market funded by a basket of developed market currencies and see who would win based o…

Very, very interesting, as any post of Daytrader! You dom't find any data to interpolate COLD WAR too? The present situation with Russia-Ukraine-The rest of the World I think isn't a true war (I hope so!) but a cold war, or a freesing war...

Thanks, Nicco. Cold war doesn't necessarily mean direct military action. Unfortunately I don't have any data as per your request

Olympics and Stock Market Correlation. Cycle of War

A professional trader will look at just about everything that can give him a statistical edge to make a profitable trade. Even myself as a believer and practitioner of market cycles I'm looking for cycles that can be found from presidential election, Inflation figures, Unemployment figures and even the Olympic Games if there is a statistical evidence that you can make a buck from it than I'll trade it.
According to a research from Bespoke Investment Group during the last 26 Olympics Game the…

At that moment many didn't believed it will work. You'll have to wait until tomorrow to see about what fractal I speak about:).

This time we're going to look at every Wall Street movie ever made and this time you will see that Wall Street movies not only that have predicted some of the most s…

Wow what an interesting read! I was just saying today that I've had several people asking me recently for "stock tips" that know nothing about markets. My theory is that the FED has effectively taken the "fear" out of the markets with stimulus. I like the message of your blog - When the general public gets so excited about the markets (and start making movies!) you know the end of the 5th wave is near.

Federal Reserve QE Effects on the Stock Market

Since the global financial crisis of 2007–2008 the FED has begin using new type of market policy like Quantitative Easing to try to stimulate economic growth. QE is the same as printing money.
