My General Market Indicators remain at zero and my other technicals are going back to extreme low levels again. There were 11 new highs and 1,375 new lows in my universe of 4,000 stocks on Wednesday.

Public-sector borrowing in the U.K. increased 1.4B in October, which was much higher than the 0.4B rise projected by economists, and was followed by a...
With yesterday’s report showing how steeply prices fell last month, I wanted to revisit the issue of inflation’s impact on stock prices. Let me add the important caveat that correlation doesn’t necessarily mean causation. The short answer is that inflation is bad for stocks. In fact, the only thing worse is deflation.

Let's see if it goes straight down to 7700.Steve Ballmer of Microsoft (MSFT) repeated yesterday that they don't want to buy Yahoo! (YHOO) anymore. Surprise! Not for me.
