I put out a Flash Alert last Saturday on Dendreon that a subscriber immediately posted to the Yahoo message board for DNDN. It was then picked up by the Investor Village message board. DNDN stock opened sharply higher on Monday morning, and all subscribers who wanted to trade my new buy limit and target price, or the suggested options positions, were harmed.

Otherwise, I have to file suit and get a court order to force Yahoo to reveal your name, and if I have to go that route your subscription will be canceled with no refund and a filter enabled to block you from ever subscribing again.

Dear New World Investor:

10000. A nice round number for the Dow Jones Industrial Average to hit in the least-loved stock market rally of all time. Those who warned us in August that September is the worst month of the year, and then followed up with warnings of all the Crashes that happen in October, are now pointing out that these big round numbers usually cap the market for many months or even years, just as 100 did during the Great Depression and 1000 did after 1966.

Gee, thanks. Here’s to you, too.

The stock market and oil are going up because the economy has been pulled back from the brink of a deflationary abyss, and the U.S. dollar is falling. Gold is going up because the government deficit spending and money creation that pulled the economy back from the brink is going to be very inflationary, and the U.S. dollar is falling. The U.S. dollar is falling due to fear of future inflation due to the government deficit spending and money creation that pulled the economy back from the abyss.

It’s actually a small, neat, logical package that is not that hard to wrap your head around. We have another jobless recovery, just like the last two, and the market soared long before the unemployment peak – just like the last two. Consumer spending is terrible, but government spending is taking its place for now:

Dear New World Investor:

This week’s issue is one day early to allow for my travel schedule to the Money Show at the Marriott in San Fransisco.

As I said in the Flash Alert on Tuesday, I think the S&P 500 wants to do a test back down to 960, with a possible intraday spike down to 912. But time is running out, because this whole downturn should be over by Friday or Monday, Day 30 or 31 of the new 86-day cycle, with the next leg up to September 10 starting then. Many bears who missed the rally are now following Henry Blodget in claiming victory by having stayed out of this “sucker’s rally.” It won’t take much more than one more big drop into options expiration this Friday to get the weekend news stories talking about false rallies, Great Depression comparisons, W-shaped recoveries, increasing unemployment rates, increasing foreclosures – did I miss any other negatives that are widely-known and thoroughly discounted by the markets already?

After breaking 990-995, it is very typical to see a test back up to the breakdown area. The energy for this type of rebound
