Sell Boardwalk, Buy Waterworks

July 29, 2008

Vinny Catalano submits:

In economic life as in the game of Monopoly, what you buy determines how large your pool of assets will be. If the Republicans are advocates of the high life, then the Democrats are more pedestrian in their interests. Consider the need for public works programs in the US.

Regardless who wins the White House, the crumbling infrastructure in the US will almost certainly receive considerable focus and funds beginning next year.

Is the Dollar Rallying on Realigned Expectations?

July 29, 2008

Kathy Lien submits:

The recovery in the US dollar and in equities has been very impressive. In Monday’s Daily Fundamentals, I said that “despite today’s move, the dollar’s rally may not be over.” Gold continues to provide a strong indication of the market’s risk appetite and dollar sentiment. If you want to figure out if investors are really nervous, just take a look at gold. Tuesday, gold prices have fallen by another $10 to $919.00 an ounce. This suggests that the dollar’s rally is set to continue. There could and will probably be retrenchments, but the overall trend of the dollar is up.

As previously indicated by the bounce in the University of Michigan consumer confidence numbers, sentiment in the US has improved according to the Conference Board’s survey. Although jobs are increasingly “hard to get,” consumers are starting to accept the current state of the US economy as the way of life. This does not mean that the troubles are behind us because house prices fell by the largest amount on record in May. Going forward, the stability of the US economy will depend on oil prices staying low.
