Smart Money with Keith Springer Newsletter- Heads I Win, Tails You Lose

Heads I Win, Tails You Lose  

Written by Keith Springer 5.23.13 HeadsIWin

Ben Bernanke is the keeper of the coin that the Federal Reserve uses to flip when deciding policy. Since the crash, investors have been torn. On one hand, they know that the massive stimulus programs will do more harm than good for the economy in the long term. On the other hand, it has been the sugar in the cake fueling this market rally, and no one wants to give up sweets no matter how bad they are for you.

Just yesterday, Bernanke spoke to congress declaring that ending the QE programs prematurely would endanger the recovery, just as the economy remains hampered by high unemployment and government spending cuts. Naturally this was good news, causing the market to rally. However in the Fed minutes that followed, it was revealed that they could decide to scale back the pace of bond purchases at one of the “next few meetings” if the economic recovery looked set to maintain forward momentum. Is this a hint of things to come or just CYA? Only time will tell, but clearly the Fed operates on the Ralph Kramden “heads I win, tails you lose” platform. (more…)

Smart Money with Keith Springer Newsletter-Markets Dance As Bernanke “Makes It Rain”

Markets Dance As Bernanke “Makes it Rain”

Written by Keith Springer 5.16.13 BernankErAIN

Stocks continue to inch higher as investors remain stumped. This is the most hated rally in my 29 years of managing money. Nothing in the economy supports these new highs, except of course one thing: Ben Bernanke is “making it rain” (and so are his good friends at the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Japanese central bank (JCB) ). As I said last week, Ben is afraid of being lonely, and “You don’t fight the Fed chairman.”

Most investors feel the Fed will eventually have to quit printing money because they are creating hyper-inflation. The reality is that we are in a negative inflationary, otherwise known as a deflationary environment. Yesterday’s economic reports were eye-opening for many on Wall Street, although certainly not for readers of this newsletter. Factory output, manufacturing production, and industrial capacity utilization, all dropped like a rock as global demand is waning. (more…)

Smart Money with Keith Springer Newsletter- Why Is Ben Bernanke So Lonely?

Written by Keith Springer 5.9.13  lonelyben

I want to know, why is Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke so dang lonely? Seriously, how else can you explain his actions? I mean it was just 2 weeks ago that several of the Fed governors finally admitted that the stimulus was doing little to help the economy and common man, and that it should be ended. That, of course, sent the stock market plummeting.

Well Helicopter Ben must have had a glimpse of losing all of his friends if he ceased the free flow of money, because in the Fed minutes released last Wednesday, he stated that he might actually increase monetary easing! His message couldn’t be any more clear even if he stood on a chair in the NYSE and screamed out “buy stocks!” This of course was music to traders ears, and now the market is making new highs. I guess you “don’t fight the Fed Chairman!” (more…)

As The Mini-Van Goes, So Goes The Economy

MiniVan

Written by Keith Springer| 5.2.13

In a recent talk with an investment club, I was asked to compare the cyclical demographic problems our country is facing, which I explain in-depth in Facing Goliath- How To Triumph In The Dangerous Market Ahead, to something that you can actually see in society today. The most fitting analogy I came up with was the mini-van. Think about it. Sure they’re around, but nowhere en masse like they used to be 10 or 15 years ago. In 2000, Americans bought 1.4 million minivans, which made up 8% of all auto sales. But by 2012, that number had fallen by nearly two thirds, to just 500,000, and today only 3% of all auto sales are minivans. (more…)
