Molycorp's (MCP) Intra Day Volume Patterns Look Bullish


Molycorp's (MCP, http://stockcharts.com/charts/gallery.html?s=mcp) Intra Day Volume Patterns Look Bullish, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?t=5d&l=off&z=l&q=c&p=v&a=ss&c=&s=mcp. There was a major volume spike as MCP peaked at 40.90, but, there was an even larger volume spike as MCP bottomed at 32.01 (during the second half of Thursday 10-28's session, MCP crashed to 32.20), and, volume was relatively light as MCP rebounded on Friday 10-29-10.

That being said, there's a good chance that Friday's rebound for MCP and REE is a counter trend Wave B move (see Rare Element Resources (REE) Elliott Wave ), of the Monthly Downcycle since hitting 40.90 for MCP and 14 for REE. MCP might make a run at the downside gap at 28.25. I suspect that REE will at least fill the 10.11 downside gap, and, might (probably won't) make a run at downside gaps at 7.65, 6.70, 5.83, 5.03, 4.55, 4.44, 3.77, 2.80, etc.

REE's (Rare Element Resources, http://stockcharts.com/charts/gallery.html?s=ree) intra day volume patterns probably aren't as bullish as MCP's, but, are probably bullish, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?t=5d&l=off&z=l&q=c&p=v&a=ss&c=&s=ree.

"Harry Reid Sucks and tried to steal the election by rigging machines"


Comment from "Paul" on Yahoo News

"Harry Reid Sucks and tried to steal the election by rigging machines. All the Dems are Bad News. Schumer is a Greedy and Corrupt Scoundrel that does Nothing for NY and he supports the building of the 15 Story Mega-Mosque at Ground Zeo too. Voting for Schumer is like Shooting yourself in the foot. Obamas Policies are a Disaster and Zero is a Compulsive Liar and Pathological Narcissist. Obama, Pelosi and Reid are a Gang of Corrupt Liars that have been Drunk with Power for too long now. Notice how the Dems do Not run on their 'Victories' of Obamacare, Stimulus, Financial Takeover bill and Bailouts that went against the will of 70% of We The People. Obama should go back to his Kenyan Birthplace so America can Recover from his Corrupt Incompetent 'leadership'. Doomsday must be coming with Obama/Pelosi and Reid in charge.

In an AP article they stated how Now a Higher Unemployment rate is Good!!!! LOL!!! Democrats can only sling Mud, Doublespeak and Negativity now because they Failed Big Time. The Democrats have been Controlling the Senate and House since the end of 2006. We Need to have Term Limits and Real Leaders. Obama is a Corrupt, Lying Fraud and total Failure. As a Life-long Democrat I have to say that Zero and the Entire Democratic leadership in Congress is Awful and needs to be Removed. Some of the Republicans are Corrupt Liars also and should be Removed too. Be Careful who You vote for this November and think of 3rd Parties and Trustworthy Republicans to Stop the Obama/Pelosi/Reid Socialist/Islamic agenda.

January 3rd, 2007 was the day the Democrats took over the Senate and the Congress. At that time:
DOW Jones closed at 12,621.77
GDP for the previous quarter was 3.5%
Unemployment rate was 4.6%
The 2007 Annual Budget deficit was $161.5 Billion dollars.
Bush's Economic policies SET A RECORD of 52 STRAIGHT MONTHS of JOB CREATION!
ON THAT DAY, JANUARY 3RD 2007:
Barney Frank took over the House Financial Services Committee.
Chris Dodd took over the Senate Banking Committee.
The economic meltdown that happened 15 months later was in what part of the economy?
BANKING AND FINANCIAL SERVICES!!!
The Current Annual Budget deficit is $1.5 Trillion Dollars.
THANK YOU DEMOCRATS for taking us from 13,000 DOW, 3.5 GDP and 4.6% Unemployment... to this CRISIS by (among MANY other things) dumping 5-6 TRILLION Dollars of toxic loans on the economy from YOUR Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ! (BTW: Bush asked Congress 17 TIMES to stop Fannie & Freddie - starting in 2001 because it was Financially risky for the US economy):
And who took the THIRD highest pay-off from Fannie Mae AND Freddie Mac???? OBAMA !
And who fought against reform of Fannie and Freddie??? OBAMA."

Rare Element Resources (REE) Elliott Wave


Rare Element Resources (REE) Elliott Wave: REE put in a Monthly Cycle High at 14 yesterday 10-28-10 versus an early October 7.02 Monthly Cycle Low, see http://stockcharts.com/charts/gallery.html?s=ree.

Wave A Down of REE's Monthly Downcycle bottomed just after today's open at 10.31, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?t=5d&l=on&z=l&q=c&p=v&a=ss&c=&s=ree. Note that Wave A Down did the usual inverse Elliott Wave 12345 down up down up down pattern.

The anemic counter trend Wave B Up of REE's Monthly Downcycle probably peaked late today 10-29-10 at 11.69, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?t=5d&l=on&z=l&q=c&p=v&a=ss&c=&s=ree. Waves 1 and 3 of the counter trend Wave B Up move occurred very early on, as REE filled the 11.30 upside gap/magnet from the open.

A likely scenario as to when the final Wave C of REE's Monthly Downcycle will bottom is shortly after filling the 10.11 downside gap/magnet, since the next downside gap/magnet isn't until 7.65 (more at 6.70, 5.83, 5.03, 4.55, 4.44, 3.77, 2.80, 2.54, 2.22, 2.03, 1.96, 1.80, there are probably more downside gaps below 1.80).

Obviously, REE is so volatile right now that one can't rule out that the 7.65 downside gap/magnet and possibly others get filled in this Monthly Downcycle (since peaking at 14 yesterday 10-28-10), but, the distance between the 10.11 gap/magnet and 7.65 is large enough, and, REE already experienced a huge decline in Wave A (from 14 to 10.31), that a Monthly Cycle Low target of 9 to 10, possibly being hit on Monday (seems likely), seems logical and reasonable.

The target range must be wide, because, REE is so volatile now. I'll be looking to day trade REE (and maybe MCP) on Monday, if I'm convinced that a Monthly Cycle Low has occurred. Hopefully, a major volume spike will occur as REE bottoms, to confirm the Monthly Cycle Low. Ciao

iDepression 2.0 at Zero Hedge


Here's the Fed's "Beige Book," LOL


Read it carefully and it's obvious that things aren't really improving, and, if it is, it's probably mostly due to sharply rising government and healthcare spending, special financing from retailers, auto dealers, freeloaders in "foreclosed" homes, etc.

"Input costs, most notably for agricultural commodities and industrial metals, rose further. Shipping rates increased, and retailers in some Districts noted rising wholesale prices. However, prices of final goods and services were mostly stable as higher input costs were not passed on to consumers. Wage pressures were minimal."

The Jamestown Massacre occurred in the Virginia Colony


"The Jamestown Massacre occurred in the Virginia Colony on Good Friday, March 22, 1622. About 347 people, or almost one-third of the English population of Jamestown, were killed by a coordinated series of surprise attacks of the Powhatan Confederacy under Chief Opechancanough.

Jamestown was the site of the first successful English settlement in North America in 1607, and was the capital of the Colony of Virginia. Although Jamestown itself was spared due to a timely last-minute warning, many smaller settlements had been established along the James River both upstream and downstream from it and on both sides. The attackers killed men, women, and children, and burned homes and crops.

I can’t imagine why they might want to get rid of the indians in the area (rolling eyes)....

Stop buying the PC crap... The indians by and large were violent savages."

#Gold's Probably Close to a Major Cycle High


#Gold's Probably Close to a Major Cycle High, for the Major Upcycle/Cyclical Bull Market since October 2008's $681 Major Cycle Low, see the second Weekly View chart at http://stockcharts.com/charts/gallery.html?s=$gold, and, note the Elliott Wave 12345 up down up down up pattern since October 2008's $681 Major Cycle Low.

Fundamentally, a gold Major Cycle High makes sense, because, the inflating game (and the effectiveness of further actions) by the powers that be is pretty much over. Any additional stimulus, debt buying/Quantitative Easing, etc won't inflate much if at all, because, it has to exceed the previous stimulus and debt buying in order to create growth.

For example, $100 billion of stimulus in year one must be followed by $200 billion in year two, $300 billion in year three, etc in order to provide an annual $100 billion delta/change worth of growth in stimulus.

#Columbus freed some of the women on the island now known as Guadeloupe


"Columbus freed some of the women on the island now known as Guadeloupe."

On the second voyage, Columbus and
his medical expert, a Dr. Diego Alvarez Chanca, came upon human
bones in villages and other indications of human sacrifice and
cannibalism. The Caribs also routinely raided neighboring Arawak
tribes for concubines. In fact, Columbus freed some of the women
on the island now known as Guadeloupe and returned them to their
villages during the second voyage. There were so many of these
captive Arawak women in Carib villages that all the women seem to
have spoken Arawak (Carib and Taino women alike), while Carib was
a tongue reserved for the men. Columbus and Chanca also met up
with captive boys who had apparently been gelded in order to
fatten them up for eating. One of the best recent studies of
Columbus has concluded, "To deny that cannibalism existed, one
needs to assume that a wide range of European commentators simply
made up the stories, an interpretation that defies reason, logic,
and the available evidence."

Previous to the arrival of Columbus the Caribs had driven the Arawaks steadily north


"Previous to the arrival of Columbus the Caribs had driven the Arawaks steadily north, depopulated some of the smaller islands, and were sorely pressing the people of Hispaniola, parts of Cuba, Porto Rico, and even Jamaica."
