The Case For

· Canary in the coal mine, semiconductors, are going forward

· Techs are strong, Intel+Ibm+Msft+Google, a quarter ago $50 billion dollars in sales, last night numbers ~$72 billion dollars in sales

· Those predicting a a recession made a correct call but the recession will be in Europe

· As a result of this recession threat and slow housing market QE3 is on the way at some point especially if inflation remains low

· This bodes well for the S&P 500

· A 10%+ move on the upside

· And one last bold prediction if I may

· Niners 21 Giants 20

Hope everyone if having a good start to the new year!

Fed pushes out low rate pledge to late 2014

The new commitment replaces the statement that economic conditions were likely to keep rates at the historic low range of 0% to 0.25% until at least mid-2013. The Fed made no policy steps, leaving the Fed’s key interest rate where it has been for three years.

In making the new projection, the central bank said the low rate of resource utilization and the subdued outlook for inflation over the medium term are likely to warrant the low rates for almost two more years.
