ROE Capital Management February 2010 Equity Market Outlook and January Performance Update
Posted In: Investing Tips
The hangover of the December holidays typically lingers a few weeks into the new year and 2010 was no exception. Tight ranges in the S&P gave us very few trading setups early in the month. We spent a protracted amount of time out of the market. As the month wore on and equity prices began to deteriorate, our programs managed to find a few suitable trading situations. The late month expansion in volatility notwithstanding, opportunities remained few and far between and as such, ROE Capital turned in a positive month with below average trading volume. (For more information on our managed futures performance, please review our complete January performance report).
Our correlation to the S&P has begun to reverse, which is good as I expect the S&P to be under pressure all year. Our managed futures colleagues (represented in the NewEdge CTA Index above) struggled in January as well, with trends proving elusive in many markets.

The better than expected GDP reported in January failed to reverse the equity losses of the month. All of the major averages took out their December lows which, as I noted in my year end review, is a bad omen for 2010 equity prices. After the beginning of the month bounce, the January jobs report looms large. Since February is seasonally the second worst performing month for the S&P, a catalyst will be required for a rally to gain traction.
A rally might materialize from a much stronger than expected jobs report building on strong ISM numbers. Without that catalyst, the S&P should move sideways to lower throughout February. The geopolitical situation looks to add pressure to equity prices as well. Iran is bristling over the US decision to deploy a patriot missile shield in the Persian Gulf. China is moving to cap its real estate bubble through tighter monetary policy, which will negatively impact global growth. Greece is facing what Moody’s called a “slow death” as it is unable to attract buyers for its debt at sustainable rates.
Taken in total, equities face an uphill battle in February. It is my hope that this added pressure will reveal more trading setups for my models.
At the end of January and in our year end review, we noted that the macro conditions argued for rising volatility in the major averages with sideways to lower prices throughout February. This was indeed the case in the first week of the month as the VIX raced to new 2010 highs and the S&P to new 2010 lows. This situation gave rise to many trading opportunities for our systems early in the month. Volatility faded sharply mid-month on the back of the equity rally, reducing our opportunities and we spent most of the last week of February in cash. Traders made several attempts to break the market at the end of the month, but prices rebounded to close the month.
Our Monticello Equity Spreads program booked its most successful month since April of 2009, with the Jefferson Index posting its most successful month since December of 2008 and its 12th consecutive positive month. (For detailed performance results, click here.) For the second month in a row, both of our programs had nearly identical performance, despite substantial variance in trading through the month. That is unlikely to continue.
The macro environment has not improved since our last survey. The situation in Greece has taken a turn for the absurd, as it becomes clear that it used OTC derivatives to mask the depth of its deficit and debt. Greece and its euro-zone equivalents remain unable to address their fiscal shortcomings because public unions undermine the political will to cut off the public trough. More than one sovereign default is imminent.
A similar situation continues to play out in various debt swamped US states. As Illinois is our home, it is our favorite example. The state finally admitted that it will likely have a $13 billion dollar budget shortfall-almost half it’s core 2010 budget-which is almost as much as California’s deficit, though Illinois has 1/3 the population of the Golden State. The politicians are talking about raising revenues to meet the crisis, but even a 300% hike in state income taxes would not fill the gap (especially considering the decline in incomes and employment in this recession). And of course, addressing only revenue sources does nothing to fix structural budget imbalances, enormous unfunded pension and health benefit liabilities or general government waste. California, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, North Carolina and Florida are not far behind. Without a federal bailout, Illinois should be in default before the end of the year.
We want to be clear on what the risk of this unfolding sovereign debt crisis means. As all recent economic data has indicated, the global recovery is soft-even after trillions of dollars were thrown into the financial system by central banks and governments. High levels of public debt have prolonged past recoveries by placing debt burdens on future growth, but this debt environment is very different. Never before have so many wealthy nations carried such high levels of public debt. Either Western governments reign in the spending, which will keep us in a protracted (but necessary) period of economic stagnation, or they march onward to default, which brings on the second wave of global financial crisis. This is not a question of if for us, but when. Living standards in the West have increased on paper asset inflation in the last 20 years; that “juice” has to come out of the market, living standards must revert to income levels and then real economic growth can resume.
The disconnect between US equity market prices and reality will continue in the short term. The S&P 500 has retraced a little over 50% toward its 2010 high. Traders will gun for 1150 in the S&P, pouring into stocks the first days of the month of March. This rally should fade by the end of the first week and the S&P will be range-bound awaiting news (look for a potential surprise lower in the February non-farm payroll number). Bernanke indicated that the Fed is in no hurry to raise interest rates, but it is ending the purchase of mortgage backed securities at the end of March which could test the banks. If previous shallow recessions are any indication this deep recession will necessitate prolonged record low interest rates for years, even in the face of a sovereign debt crisis. With the euro in crisis, the dollar will find support in the lack of a currency alternative. Stocks remain cheap to cash, so the major averages should rally until the sovereign debt crisis forces the market to test its 2010 lows.
We expect near term volatility to return to elevated levels in the next few weeks. This should provide our systems with many trading opportunities in March.

This entails securing yourself a practice trading account for free from any online broker and familiarizing yourself with the basics of trading.

None of these things are particularly difficult, you could say in fact that investing is simple to pick up but difficult to master.
A practice trading account will get you trade ready eventually by getting you experience in the most important but most difficult and time consuming aspect of investing: market research. You should spend a few months doing this before even thinking about transitioning into investing real money and you should also have a number of profitable virtual trades to your name, as well.
The other option which newer and the more casual and busier traders should think about employing is a stock picker. This is a program which does just that: it makes use of mathematical algorithms designed to predict market patterns using past trends as a point of reference. The best of these programs are remarkably accurate and professional traders use them every day themselves to both guide and check their own trading.
These programs are ideal for newer and casual traders alike again because they take the risk, emotions, guesswork, and mystery out of trading by doing all of the work for you so that all you’ve got to do is enact the recommended trades in your spare time.

Once we have promised to create for customers one or more ETF’s portfolios. We have promised because the ETF is a very interesting tool and has interesting specifics.
ETF is universal, accessible, enabling investors to implement the most basic to highly complex investment or trading strategy. ETF uses and less experienced investor to invest their savings in index funds, and experienced, to trade leveraged and inversed ETFs, both.
But when we have started to publish ETF quotes in the daily Investing Ideas (IID), we saw that at least there is no need to create separate ETF portfolios.
The results of the IID are just wonderful that do we have decided to do nothing more so long.
On the other hand, there are no too many ETF’s to create something more than has already been created. Of course, when the market will increase the choice of the ETFs, an investor opportunity increases also.
There are very much sites of all kinds about ETFs in the Internet. ETFDigest.com, in our opinion, is one of the best of such sites. And David Fry – founder of ETFDigest.com – is one of the best ETF’ specialists.
Site popularity shows that the information is really good and very professional. What’s interesting and what you rarely find in other sites, the information presented familiarly, ingenuously.
Site developers communicate with investors very warm and pleasant.

Three Keys To Financial Freedom
Posted In: Investing Tips
One of your major responsibilities to yourself and the people who depend on you is to build a financial fortress around yourself overtime. Your job is to create an estate within which you can be safe from the financial insecurities experienced by most people. To achieve this goal, you need to maintain the correct proportions of your finances in each of these three: savings, insurance and investment.
Savings: Your first financial goal is to save enough money so that, if you lost your source of income for up to six months, you would have enough put aside to carry you over. The very act of saving this amount and putting it into a high yielding savings account or money market account will give you a tremendous sense of confidence and inner peace.
Insurance: You must insure adequately to provide against any emergency that you cannot pay for out of your bank account. Carry sufficient health insurance to provide for yourself and others in any medical emergency. Insure your car for liability and collision. Insure your life so that if something unfortunate happens to you, the people who are counting on you will be provided for. The deepest need or carving of human nature is the desire for security, and without adequate insurance, you are taking risks that you simply cannot afford.
Investment: Your ultimate financial goal should be to accumulate capital until your investments are paying you more than you can earn on your job.
The simplest and most effective of all financial strategies is for you to save and invest your money throughout your working lifetime until your investments are paying you more than you earn at your job. At this point you can begin to phase out your regular job and spend your time managing your assets.
This seems like a very simple lifetime planning strategy, but it is remarkable how few people end up at the age of sixty-five with very little put aside. Don’t let this happen to you.
Check here for genuine and profitable investment program.

With the exception of the last few years, property has generally increased in value so much that there is a general belief that you just can’t lose with property investment. This impression is underlined by the growth of property clubs, where you pay to invest in newbuild and off-plan properties bought at a discount. Such clubs tend to be heavily advertised and appeal to people’s greed and laziness by suggesting that you can become a property millionaire in no time, for little or no money down, and whether the market is rising or not.
The truth is that you can lose, but even so, property does historically come good most of the time - eventually. Also, investors in property can now, quite literally, have the whole wide world in their hands - or in their portfolios. It is now possible to invest in property in most countries in the world, so that your property portfolio can look as international as you like. Nowadays, anybody can be an international investor and financier! Anybody can swagger around brandishing an impressive-looking international property portfolio!
So why do I believe that property, in general, makes a good type of investment?
In the first place, everybody understands property, simply because everybody has to have a roof over their heads. Everybody also understands that home occupiers have to pay rent or a mortgage in order to continue living there. It is also self-evident that even when fully owned and mortgage-free, there are continuing costs attached to living in a home.
This is knowledge that we all have. By contrast, you have to be quite financially sophisticated to understand how equities and other aspects of the money markets work. You also have to be numerate and actually enjoy number-crunching. Successful people are doing sums in their heads the whole time; it is second nature to them. But few ordinary people really understand how and why stock markets crash, or how the stock market performance in, say, Japan, can intimately affect other stock exchanges around the world.
Few people, too, readily understand futures, hedge funds or derivatives. You have to be quite deeply interested in money and all its ramifications to be able to play money markets. It is a mindset which not all of us have. Yet everybody knows what estate agents and letting agents do.
Then, historically, at least, property is solid and substantial and far less liable than equities to stock market fluctuations, to crashes and recoveries. Obviously house prices fluctuate, but there has rarely, if ever, been a complete crash. One reason for this is that all real estate is built on land which will never go away. A further reason for the dependability of property is that everybody needs a home, whereas we can manage without a car, foreign travel, the latest electronic gadgetry, if we have to.
Then, there is almost always a shortage of housing. And while house prices can go up and down, there is always going to be some value in land. By contrast, the entire value of an equity can be wiped out, in a severe downturn of the market, performance in the High Street. And there is little the individual shareholder can do about this, except to buy and sell at the right time.
When you invest in stocks and shares, you may have very little control over whether their value rises or falls. To take a famous example, when former jeweler retailer Gerald Ratner made his notorious remark at a City dinner that his sherry decanters were ‘crap’, £500 million was immediately wiped off the value of Ratner shares, with the result that many shareholders lost very large sums indeed, through no fault of their own,
But even if somebody calls your house ‘crap’ - as ’specialists’ on TV home design programs often come perilously close to doing - it is still unlikely to lose all its value.
One way to invest in property is through tax liens. Investing in tax lien certificates is becoming more popular, especially within the current economy. If you currently invest in property but aren’t using this investment vehicle you should definitely look into it.

There is a misconception about attainment of membership of any company [Co] and who a member is. Are you also in this situation? Majority of people perceive that a person who holds the shares is a member. But this is not hundred percent true because a person may be a holder of shares but she is not a member or be a member but she doesn’t hold any shares.
A member is a person who has allowed his name to be listed in the membership register. You should be competent to enter into contracts in order to qualify for membership.
Here are ways of acquiring membership of a Company:
Subscribers to the memorandum of association become original members of a company from the date of its incorporation. If you subscribe to it, then you become a member. You won’t be required to apply for allotment and entry of your name in the register of members.
If you agree to purchase qualified shares or be appointed as the first director of a public Co, then you attain membership.
When you apply for shares and you are allotted the shares, then you can get your name listed in the register of membership. By getting your name on the register, you acquire membership.
Shares of a public company are freely transferable. So, when you purchase shares from a person in the open market and get them transferred to you through the execution of an instrument termed as share transfer form, then the transferors name will be deleted from the register of membership and your name will entered in it. This means that you acquired membership through transfer of shares.
You can attain membership by succession. You can succeed the shares of the deceased, insane or insolvent member by only producing legal evidence of her entitlement and get your name listed in the register of membership.
You can become a member by converting your share warrants into share certificates. When you request for the conversion and it’s accepted, then you can get your name listed in the register of membership.
When you obtain allotment of shares for a consideration other than cash, then you attain membership if only you get your name listed in the register of membership. This happens if you accept shares for the services you rendered to the company or properties you had sold to it.
You can be a member through an order of the court. Your name can be listed in the register of membership as per the order of the court.
In case an existing equity share holder renounces her right shares to you as her nominee, then you can get your name listed in the register of membership.
If you hold debentures and you apply to the company to convert them into shares and the application is accepted, then you become a member of that Co after only getting your name listed in the register of membership.
Lastly you can attain membership through acquiescence or estoppel. This happens when you knowingly allow your name to remain in the register of members even after you have disposed of your shares or hold yourself as a member by making others believe that you are a member. You will be estopped from denying the fact that you are a member thus you will become responsible for the liabilities of membership.

What is somebody told you that stock exchange dealers make a lot of profits? Will you believe this? What if I go further and tell you that you can make money in two ways that is by either being a speculator or an investor or even both? Well… people are trying to invest their hard cash money in various securities of various companies. Each day, thousands and millions of securities are either sold or bought all over the world.
If this is the scenario, then there is an opportunity for you to make a few bucks here and there on the stock exchange market. If you have really made up your mind and you are passionate about being a dealer in this market, then you will either be a speculator or an investor. If you like also, you can be both as there are no any restrictions.
So, who is a speculator or an investor in this market? That is a good question and I will answer you. Well… a speculator buys and sells different types of securities with the ultimate purpose of making a quick capital gain as a result of price fluctuations in the stock market while an investor buys the securities with the ultimate purpose of generating regular income from their holdings. His ultimate purpose is coupled with safety investment.
Investor usually holds them for a long period of time and earns dividends from shares and interest from debentures as a reward of his money invested on the shares and debentures. As a speculator, your intention is not to hold shares and debentures or make a regular income from them but to make quick profits.
Before you become a dealer who is a speculator, you must know the different types of speculators in order to operate efficiently and effectively on the stock exchange market.
Types of Speculators:
Bull-Is the one who anticipates a rise in the prices. She enters into a contact to buy securities at the current price with the aim of selling them at a future date when prices rise. She buys long and creates pressure on the prices so that they increase. If here speculations goes wrong, she will spread rumors that the prices are going to increase [she does bull campaigns also called rigging the market]. A stock market dominated by bull speculators is called as bullish market.
Bear-Is the one who anticipates a fall in the prices. She will enter into a contract to sell securities at the current price with the aim of buying them at a future date when their prices fall. She is a pessimist and if prices fall as per her speculations and she buys them back, then she will pocket profits. This is termed as selling short. Unlike a bull speculator who keeps her head upward, a bear speculator keeps her head down. She will make efforts of bringing prices down in the stock exchange market through selling pressure termed as bear raid. When her speculations go wrong, a bear squeeze will occur. If the bear speculators dominate the market, it’s termed as bearish.
Lame Duck-Is a desperate bear speculator. She is desperate because she had committed herself in an agreement to sell securities to a buyer and the shares are unavailable in the stock market. The buyer is not willing to postpone the deal at this desperate moment.
A Slag-Is one who applies for securities with the aim that the prices of shares will be listed at a premium price on the stock exchange market. She eventually sells the securities when prices increase. She will create false demands by sending a number of applications under different names. A slag speculator is a premium hunter.

People often get confused when situation like transferring pension fund from UK to another country comes. After spending the entire life in UK organization when a person moves to another country then majority of them face problem in transferring their pension fund to their own country. But, not anymore! All your problems in this regard are going to diminish soon with the modern pension scheme QROPS.
All those people associated with the international fund transfer must be well-aware of QROPS. The Qualifying Recognized Overseas Pension Schemes, usually known as QROPS, is a pension fund transferring plan that allows transferring UK pension to overseas countries. Within a very short time of its launch, QROPS has become worldwide popular and that’s because of the distinct advantages that the users get through QROPS. Well, if you are confused why to choose QROPS for transferring your pension from the UK to your country then this article will be beneficial for you. Now here in this article we will discuss about three distinct advantages you will get through QROPS, which you cannot expect from other pension schemes of the same category.
• Lots and lots of freedom: Yes, that’s the ultimate thing you will get through QROPS. This pension scheme comes with so much of facilities that you will not have to compromise with anything while having QROPS for transferring your pension. There are certain QROPS plans that do not have much financial complexities for which as a foreign investor you need not to be worried about anything while making your investment decision.
• Say goodbye to TAX: Wondering is it true or not? Actually there are a few QROPS plans that let you stay away from the hassles of tax and there are lots of QROPS schemes that give you relieve from tax. You will find several countries that host the QROPS plans with a wide range of tax regimes that practically treat pensions in distinct ways.
• Moving your QROPS to your family members would not be a matter of concern: This is a true fact that majority of the UK pension schemes do not allow their users to transfer their UK pension scheme to their family members after their death.
