The US is officially showing some acute signs of decline
The US is officially showing some acute signs of decline. Though, I love the DOW and our country, the fact that Cottonelle actually used Tori Spelling and her husband to determine if people rolled their toilet paper over or under is not promising. The story was reported by PRN on the wires between a PBOC statement on Monetary Policy stance and the EU’s Barroso commenting on Nuclear Waste issues providing further evidence why people think the US decline is eminent. Over / under on how long that ad exec will keep position? It is March madness?
Nearly every major Asian stock index was up nicely on the day and Europe is trading up on the Greek news we commented on. US Indexes are up in Europe so it looks like another great day for the US markets. Breaking through Dow 10,500 may attract some profit taking though the technical momentum looks more like the market will test 10,750 or even 11,000 first. And I admit my opinion is biased as I’ve projected Dow 12,000 for year end. There is just so much cash on the sidelines and I don’t see it going too many other places unless the offshore funds sneak another round of air investments past the regulators in the form of asset based exotic derivatives stemming from the Trillion dollar looming commercial debt debacle. There is significant uncertainty related to this situation and definitely high up on our watch list.

Best Daily Stock Picks and Penny Stock Picks
It is sad to say, but it seems to me that investors trust corporations more than the US government. Given the choice would you rather invest in politicians by buying bonds that yield next to nothing in return for your investment or invest in Procter and Gamble, GE, Microsoft or even Google? I know that the government will certainly spend the money on something that may or may not benefit the country. Financially, we are so overleveraged it is a joke with China owning the majority of our trillion plus dollar debt? We would certainly be bankrupt if we were a corporation. Market competition demands that companies hire the best minds to earmark investment for something that will benefit the Company giving it a competitive advantage. The Company has to make money or its debt load will eventually sink it below the minimum listing requirements of an exchange resulting in bankruptcy. Not a good investing opportunity. Investors are looking for hot stocks. Stock market analysis points many directions when looking at the current market in respect to other periods of enormous default on notes. It’s certain banks will fail, companies will fail and the government will falter. However, large corporations and agile corporations that have good access to capital in conjunction with a unique business model will flourish. Defensive sectors and the DOW in general as a defensive market for world investments leads me to like the US markets and the Swiss market cause they are above the law with caves full of gold.
So 12,000-15,000 on the DOW between 2011 and 2013 is greatly possible and remember that trading futures is extremely risky. It should only be attempted by very experienced investors who have filled out the necessary FINRA compliance paper work with their broker dealer in addition to consulting a FINRA Registered Representative before making any investment decision.

Stock Picks and Penny Stock Picks of Chinese Companies
Most of Asia closed up with the exception of China. The Yuan test continues as China is actually being proactive and testing what its merchants can sustain in order to gauge the approach the Chinese central bank will implement to fight inflation. China continues to be the largest owner of US debt. Many penny stocks are coming out of China. There are many reasons to follow China with the aforementioned ranking close to the most important. We have released several stock picks of Chinese companies in the past. Europe is trading up today with the exception of Switzerland. The world markets seem to be skipping along with the nice move in the US markets. So it’s easy at this point to look at the current issues the US financial markets face and take a very bearish attitude and call for huge market correction because of a huge over valuation in stocks. There are always a litany of justifications and fundamental or technical arguments these economists will come up with. Other than 15 plus years experience in almost every capacity in the securities business, I base my current premise on the prevailing direction the DOW will trend on one thing that I’ve noticed recently, HOPE.
Yes, HOPE is the prevailing indicator that leads me to look at long term option positions on DOW futures contracts 1-3 years out from 12,000-15,000 respectively from 2011-2013. The fact that there is actually hope in the third world to increase the living standard of those that have the least is starting to bridge the income disparity gap. Central America, South America, Africa, Malaysia, and Indonesia among other countries are all in various stages of expansion based on the exportation of non-durable goods. These staples of life increase the employment of those that are willing to work for the lowest wages but have skill sets to fit the work. As the business grows and tasks become more complicated, a supply to demand variable in available skilled laborers increases the wages that are earned by the working class. As in the textile boom in the United States where we replaced the UK and Europe as the nexus for skilled production, there is a similar revolution occurring in these locations, but it is based upon non-durable goods exportation. Some of the next hot stocks in the stock market are coming out of Latin America and Asia.

Current Stock Market from the Macro Side
So I’m just going to break it down on investing in the current market from the macro side. I just spoke to a close friend who returned from Columbia. Basically everything laid out from an economic analysis of their observations regarding the country further strengthens the stock market trends that we have been observing and reporting in our various stock newsletters. The fact is that the strongest economies currently are those of exporters.
More specifically exporters of non durables where the country has limited exposure to the primary tidal wave of bank debacles associated with mortgage backed securities and the coming tidal wave of potentially devastating exposure of banks that own the debt from the commercial real estate market. In the US, the regional banks have been falling like dominos and are either taken over by the FDIC or absorbed by investing groups that plan on creating the next round of debt related exotic securities. This time the notes are from the billions of bad debt related to commercial property.
It is a simple pattern in the US that has been repeated a number of times. This is perhaps the most devastating economic crisis the country has ever faced. Basically the dollar is weak. Companies in the US laid people off. This in combination with a huge number of loans on residential property handed out like hot cakes to non qualified investors. Then the trading of this d and f or Omega in reality as my economist friend likes to liken it too, the last letter in a dead language quality wise. Companies are no longer able to pay their rent. Retail space has also been built out too quickly and even those buildings and strip malls once considered sure bets for high occupancy rates instead have record rates of available space. This creates another phenomenon of commercial notes becoming non-performing and the banks are forced to rate it as bad debt.
Now the big four banks are decently positioned with their (our) TARP bailout money and other revenue streams to handle the bad debt on their books. They have just stopped loaning and are pushing towards opening new accounts and fee based money management. The huge problem is the billions of commercial real estate debt owned by the regional banks that did not receive any bailout money. In Southern California, there are many regional banks that fit into this sad reality. In fact, we’ve had a chance to look over many opportunities for investing in notes from various regional banks. So investing tip number one, and this is difficult for us to admit as my life has been surrounded by stock picks for more than 15 years, BUY debt on commercial properties. There are amazing opportunities out there to pick up the debt on commercial properties that are still performing. Often the debt can be purchased for a 50%-70% discount to face value. Further negotiations with the current owners of the property can increase that margin significantly as eventual failure and non-performance on the debt is likely and complete ownership will ensue.

Could the Stem Cell Industry Produce Hot Stocks in 2009?
We believe stem cell stocks will get a huge amount of attention in 2009 and become some of the hot stocks of 2009. Stem cell stocks are companies that research and develop stem cells or enable the use of stem cells by doctors and hospitals. Several stem cell stocks are penny stocks that could move up several times their current value.
Stem cells are unspecialized cells that give rise to a specific specialized cell. Stem cells can revolutionize the field of regenerative/reparative medicine. Stem cells are extremely powerful and can dramatically change how we treat various diseases.
There are two kinds of stem cells from animals and humans (embryonic and adult stem cells). Embryonic stem cell research has been a hot topic. A research funding and support bill that came out of Congress under the current Presidency was voted.
Right now, it’s a mixed bag, we are starting to see some stem cell stocks move and others still in a downtrend, but we believe this is just the beginning of a turn around for small cap stocks in the stem cell industry. Stem cell stocks have been severely hampered by policy and lack of funding and support over the past several years.
But… we believe stem cell stocks will breakout and become some of the most popular stocks and best stocks on Wall Street. We believe stem cell stocks are good stocks at this time. Stem cell companies are looking for policy that funds and supports their research and development of stem cells.
We believe stem cell companies will get that support by way of the 2008 Presidential elections. This is not a foregone conclusion that the White House will be pro-stem cells after this year’s general elections; however, both Senator Barack Obama and Senator John McCain are pro-stem cells.
Senator Barack Obama, the Democratic Presidential nominee, has released a statement of support for stem cell research on his Senate page. Senator Barack Obama believes we should expand and accelerate research using embryonic stem cells, just as we should continue to explore the viability of adult stem cell use and cord blood use.
The Republican Presidential nominee is Senator John McCain. Senator McCain has long supported embryonic stem cell research on embryos that would otherwise be discarded during assisted reproduction, but has been receiving pressure from the Republican base to drop support for embryonic stem cell research.
Investors are still just starting to price this future potential into stem cell stocks. Analysts and investment managers in hedge funds and mutual funds could start loading up on stem cell stocks across the board.
It is important to do stock research on topics like stem cells. Investors can find stem cell stock picks, stock lists and an investment newsletter / stock trading newsletter at GusherStocks.com.
The above article is our opinion and contains forward looking statements in an attempt to clarify the possible state of the stem cell industry.
