Bull markets climb a wall of fear – Betonmarkets.com
After the party comes the hangover, and of course the bigger the party, the largest is the hangover. In recent years, financial firms have been absorbing 'infallible credit trades, based on sub prime debt. Now the party has completed and businesses are having to deal with his antics in the cold light of day, says BetOnMarkets.com 's Michael Wright.
Last week no was different, with E-commerce (U.S. discount broker) announcing that it incurred substantial losses in its U.S. $ 3 billion fund, and circulating rumors that were going bankrupt. Once this news hit the wires, the Dow and SP500 both dipped into red territory, as investors once again became very concerned about the health of any population that has relationships with mortgage lending or investment.
More bad news came from HSBC of Britain, he said he would write a further 3.4 billion U.S. dollars of U.S. business during the third quarter, also due to exposure to sub loans prime. This is in addition to the billions in losses already reported earlier this year, and after a few days, a 1.2 billion dollars to write the 4th quarter of Bears Stearns and Co. The hedge fund was one of the first financial institutions to confirm the loss due to sub prime exposure.
Finally, Barclays reported that wrote down 1.3 billion pounds (2.7 billion U.S. dollars) in credit-related securities. This was actually much less than many analysts predicted, and the shares initially met on Thursday with relief that things were not as bad as many had feared.
However, the question currently being asked by most analysts, is that it will launch credit advertisements related to depreciation, but how these will be. The stock market is a forward-looking animal, and many analysts are already prices in losses to certain financial stocks.
Attention Now can turn to insurance companies and pension funds. Both invest in mortgage bonds, a bond secured by a mortgage on a property. Because they are secured by real estate or physical equipment that can be liquidated, usually are considered high grade, safe investments. However, this has not been the case recently with the implosion of U.S. mortgage market.
While relatively few of the pension funds are publicly traded companies, many companies largest insurance are. This means we will soon have no choice but to explain why its earnings per share are not as good as Wall Street had expected be.
It is a common topic that "bull markets climb a wall of fear." No one can deny the level of fear in the markets right now but it is also true that markets hate uncertainty. low losses and write can not be as bad as expected, but only the companies know the actual figures. With many losses is still unknown, and a round of bad news from insurance companies that present a potential risk, the recovery here may be the best of nerve. There may be events in the next month, but may be tempered by the fear of the unknown losses lurking around the corner.
With Betonmarkets.com the average trader can take advantage of these events are possible through the purchase of a "no option", hich is to compensate the investor if the index underlying does not touch the predetermined level, for a specified period of time.
