Happy New Year David.
A new year. SO what do you see in store.
Seems things are on the up ….spending, manufacturing, capital investment, commodities…
Interest rates still low, inflation modest….is this going to be a good year?
Happy New Year Guys! Things certainly appear to be started on a good note. January can be a good predictor of the year. On average, if January is up so is the year.
The Annual Okanagan CFA Forecast dinner is slated for January 20th at the Capri Hotel. Analysts stand up and give a prediction for the year and defend themselves the following year. I may have a better read after that however, I was reading the CFA Newsbrief this morning to get caught up on the world of investing. Some headlines caught my eye. 1. Despite unemployment in the US of 10%, an over heating economy has replaced fears of a double-dip recession 2. According to the Economist predictions of a further US housing crash are far-fetched. 3. Stimulus has been supporting market growth and the end is in sight, so we will see what happens when the life support comes off. 4. According to bond experts, sovereign debt issues are the biggest risk in the US and Europe 5. Market watchers wonder whether exchange traded funds might be about to pop. Lastly,Gas prices could climb with rising crude oil prices making the cost of air travel more expensive. That may be offset by a rising Canadian dollar which happens to be above par right now. Oh yeah the Canadian Juniors will take the gold.
