I know this headline just sounds too good to be true, and nobody could blame
you if you stopped reading right here. Consider this, though: A penny saved is a
penny earned might be a cliché, but its accurate. If your stock portfolio is
down by $1,000, you have to earn an extra $1,000 to bring your net worth back to
even. So a penny saved really is a penny earned. Now ask yourself, How much
money did I lose since the May highs or the beginning of the year? To make up
for the loss, youll have to work extra hours. But what if you didnt lose any
money? You would have preserved your purchasing power and be able to buy at
lower prices (if you so chose). In other words, knowing when to sell a position
is equally if not more important than knowing when to buy. Buying low and
selling high (or the opposite if you are shorting the market) require serious
insight about the market. Here is one simple strategy that protects your profits
and helps you identify winning trades without having a clue of what the market
whether Dow Jones, S&P, Nasdaq or Russell 2000 is going to do next. Below you
will find some actual trade recommendations. The number in front of the trade
recommendation corresponds with the number in the chart. Red numbers were sell
signals, green numbers were buy signals. Blind as a Bat But on Target Bats have
poor vision, but they always find their target simply because they work
effectively with what theyve got. Nobody has stock market radar vision, so we
too have to work with what weve got. We need to identify an edge and exploit it.
Every person may have a different edge. My edge is knowing the S&Ps hot buttons
levels that tend to force the S&P to change trends or confirm a trend (the red
and yellow lines drawn in the chart show some hot buttons). Imagine a car
driving on a long road with a few traffic lights. If the car is going to stop,
accelerate or make a U-turn anywhere on the road, it most likely will be at a
traffic light. If the S&P is going to reverse, it likely will be at
support/resistance. I spend much of my work hours identifying support/resistance
levels. Trend lines, Fibonacci, pivots, sentiment, prior highs/lows, etc., are
important tools to identify such hot buttons. The Big One Like a home builder
that starts out with the foundation and the frame, I start out by building a
rough, big picture outline. The chart below explains why a major market top was
expected. The ideal target range for this top was 1,369 to 1,382. This
resistance cluster was made up of Fibonacci resistances and the upper trend line
of a multi-decade bearish M top formation. 1) (See chart for corresponding
number) on May 1, I confirmed that a move to 1,369 would be close enough to
consider the right side of the giant M-pattern as completed. The very next day,
the S&P spiked briefly to 1,370.58 before reversing. The Roller Coaster The May
2 high was followed by a three-month roller coaster finished off by a meltdown.
There was a temporary bottom at S&P 1,258 on June 16. 2) On June 15: The 200-day
SMA at 1,257 is sandwiched between the 1,255 Fibonacci projection level dating
back to 2002 and last weeks at 1,259. Last Wednesdays low was at 1,261.9. If
this low is not enough, there is a strong cluster of support at 1,259 to 1,245.
A drop into the 1,259-to-1,245 range would prompt us to close out short
positions and leg into long positions. The Curveball 3) Unfortunately, no
strategy is perfect. On July 4, I suggested to short the S&P at 1,340 with a
stop-loss at 1,348. On July 6, I added, If the S&P does spike above and falls
back below 1,347 we will re-enter the short trade. If the S&P stays above 1,347
well watch and wait for a day or so and may go long. However, if the S&P moves
higher the VIX will be around 15. Owning stocks with the VIX that low is a risky
proposition. In a not-so-unusual effort to clear out stop-losses, the S&P closed
above 1,348 for one day before reversing. In seesaw situations like that,
investors need to be flexible and sometimes close and re-enter positions. 4) I
took one more stab at going long at S&P 1,300 and got stopped out at 1,330. To
emphasize, all long positions were closed at 1,330 on July 27. From there on,
the stock market went down hill. 5) I had already forewarned that due to the
potential debt-related down side, aggressive investors may go short if the S&P
drops below 1,325. Forget Your Personal Preference Even if your personal outlook
differs from technicals, its best to stick with technicals. I learned this when
I wrote on July 27, For some reason I still cant get myself to abandon the
prospect of higher prices. Nevertheless, support was broken and the S&P saw a
failed daily percentR low-risk entry today, so well go with the (bearish) flow.
6) Just a day later, the possibility of panic selling became real. A July 28
update: A break below the 200-day SMA and the trend line may trigger panic
selling. One way to avoid missing out on a potentially big opportunity is to use
the 200-day SMA at 1,284 as delineation between bullish and bearish bets buy as
long as the 200-day SMA serves as support, sell if it becomes resistance. If the
S&P seesaws, repeat the process. New Lows or Not The big question is whether the
decline is over and done with or if there will be new lows. Based on various
patterns, such as the 2007 market top mirror-image, VIX topping pattern, market
bottom patterns and sentiment, the low doesnt seem to be in yet. But I trust
technicals more than my personal bias. 1,173 was major support. Tuesdays update
recommended to go short when the S&P violates 1,173. As long as the S&P stays
below, we will be looking for lower prices. Worst-case scenario, were proven
wrong and have to close out the positions without net gain at 1,173. Ideally,
well get to close out short positions once the S&P reaches our downside target.
This approach to investing isnt foolproof. But allowing the market to establish
support resistance levels along with incremental trading ranges makes it
possible to maximize the gains and minimize any losses. This article is brought

Want to Trade Gold? Let Us Count the Ways
XCSFDHG46767FHJHJF
tdp2664 InvestorPlace I am not a gold bug — I make fun of people who fear inflation, I make fun of people who think even European governments will let their banks fail, I make fun if people who have gold coins in case the apocalypse comes up on us. Sorry if I offended you, but take heart — I have been recommending buying gold and its cousins for a long time and am still doing so. Why? First, the fearful are buying and driving up prices, and they will continue to do so as long as there is political uncertainty — and that means several years. Second, central banks, especially in emerging nations including India and China, are buying gold. Third, institutional money managers are boosting portfolio allocations to gold from the typical 2%-5% to as high as 15%. And last, as they should be, are the traders. However, they get the headlines, and that is why the chart readers – remember that people who predict fortunes and read palms read charts as well – say we are in a bubble. Nope, we are not. And here is how to trade gold. Investing Approach – Buy the SPDR Gold Shares (NYSE: GLD ) exchange-traded fund. the ETF for gold.

Bullish Call Spread Trade on AAPL
XCSFDHG46767FHJHJF
tdp2664 InvestorPlace Like the rest of the equities market, shares of Apple Inc. ( NASDAQ : AAPL ) were swimming in red ink last week. Nevertheless, looking at the action in the options pits, it appears one spread strategist — like most of Wall Street — was maintaining an optimistic outlook on the tech behemoth. Specifically, in Friday's session, symmetrical blocks of calls traded at the January 2012 380 and 400 strikes. Implied volatility (IV) on the 380-strike call was last seen 2.8 percentage points higher, while IV on the deeper-out-of-the-money call was up 2.5 percentage points at last check, pointing to the initiation of new positions at the strikes. However, while the 380-strike calls traded at the ask price of $29.37, implying they were likely bought, the 400-strike calls crossed at the bid price of $20.77, hinting at sell-to-open activity. Simply put, it appears the speculator constructed a long-term bull call spread on AAPL for a net debit of $8.60 per pair of calls ($29.37-$20.77). By doing so, the investor is betting on shares of AAPL to power north of the $388.60 level (bought call strike plus net debit) within the calls' relatively lengthy lifetime. However, no matter how far the security should climb beyond the $400 level before options expiration, the most the trader can make is capped at $11.40 per pair of calls (difference between strikes minus net debit) thanks to the sold 400-strike calls. On the flip side, even if AAPL extends last Friday's retreat, the most the investor stands to lose is limited to the $8.60 paid to establish the spread. But if the strategist has bullish expectations for AAPL, why not just buy the 380-strike calls? After all, had the trader simply purchased the 380-strike calls, their profit potential would be theoretically unlimited, as there's no limit to how high a stock can rally. In the simplest terms, while a long call can offer an appealing profit potential, the “vanilla” call buyer would've needed AAPL to muscle atop the $409.37 level (strike plus premium paid) just to break even. Plus, they would've been out the entire $29.37 paid for the call had the stock failed to live up to the lofty expectations. By simultaneously selling the higher-strike call, the strategist not only slashed their breakeven rail, but also reduced the maximum risk (and initial cost) by nearly 71%. At last check, shares of AAPL have surrendered more than 4% to linger in the $356 vicinity. In order to rebound and extend its quest for record highs — as per the strategist's expectations — the stock will have to power atop both its ten- and 20-day moving averages, which haven't been toppled since August 1. As alluded to earlier, though, the options bull isn't the only member of AAPL's fan club. According to Zacks, the security has earned 37 “strong buys” and four “buy” ratings from analysts, compared to three lukewarm “holds” and not a single “sell” suggestion. Plus, only about 1.3% of the stock's float is dedicated to short interest, and it would take less than a day to buy back at AAPL's average pace of trading.

Monday Apple Rumors: It’s a Whole New Mac
XCSFDHG46767FHJHJF
tdp2664 InvestorPlace Here are your daily Apple news items and rumors for Monday: Mac: The Next Generation: Despite the fact the ultra-thin line of MacBook Air laptops has enjoyed two hardware revisions and unprecedented success in the past 12 months, it appears Apple ( NASDAQ : AAPL ) thinks those devices aren’t enough of a presence in the traditional computer market. A new rumor originating at Macotakara.jp and reprinted at Apple Insider said Apple is preparing an entirely new line of Macs , and those machines might hit the market as soon as this fall. These new machines will be “absolutely different from current products,” according to an anonymous source within Apple’s Asian supply chain. So different, in fact, that they might end up using an entirely new brand other than “Mac.” This would fall in line with previous rumors that Apple might release a new touchscreen-based Mac with an adjustable screen, bringing its PC business and its handhelds like the iPhone and iPad closer together in terms of functionality. Google and Apple Up, BlackBerry Down: Research firm the NPD Group released its report on the U.S. smartphone market during the second quarter , and the results look a whole lot like the first quarter. Google ( NASDAQ : GOOG ) cemented its role as the leading platform holder, with 52% of all smartphones sold during the quarter using the Android operating system. Apple saw a small boost to 29% of all phones sold. Bad news for Research in Motion ( NASDAQ : RIMM ), though, as BlackBerry phones accounted for just 11% of all smartphone sales. Microsoft ‘s (NASDAQ: MSFT ) Windows and Hewlett – Packard ‘s (NYSE: HPQ ) webOS systems accounted for 5% of sales apiece. Lenovo Doesn’t Fear the iPad: PC manufacturer Lenovo is just one of the technology companies watching the iPad erode its business in 2011. CEO Yang Yuanquing isn’t worried, though. Speaking in a Financial Times report (via All Things Digital ), Yuanquing believes Apple’s domination of the consumer portable PC market through the iPad will be short-lived. The reason for this is the device’s high price. “Apple only covers the top tier. With a $500 price you cannot go to the small cities, townships, low salary class, (and) low income class.” Lenovo plans to combat the iPad with a line of Android- and Windows-based tablets.

Bullish Call Spread Trade on AAPL
Like the rest of the equities market, shares of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL ) were
swimming in red ink last week. Nevertheless, looking at the action in the
options pits, it appears one spread strategist like most of Wall Street was
maintaining an optimistic outlook on the tech behemoth. Specifically, in
Friday's session, symmetrical blocks of calls traded at the January 2012 380
and 400 strikes. Implied volatility (IV) on the 380-strike call was last seen
2.8 percentage points higher, while IV on the deeper-out-of-the-money call was
up 2.5 percentage points at last check, pointing to the initiation of new
positions at the strikes. However, while the 380-strike calls traded at the ask
price of $29.37, implying they were likely bought, the 400-strike calls crossed
at the bid price of $20.77, hinting at sell-to-open activity. Simply put, it
appears the speculator constructed a long-term bull call spread on AAPL for a
net debit of $8.60 per pair of calls ($29.37-$20.77). By doing so, the investor
is betting on shares of AAPL to power north of the $388.60 level (bought call
strike plus net debit) within the calls' relatively lengthy lifetime. However,
no matter how far the security should climb beyond the $400 level before options
expiration, the most the trader can make is capped at $11.40 per pair of calls
(difference between strikes minus net debit) thanks to the sold 400-strike
calls. On the flip side, even if AAPL extends last Friday's retreat, the most
the investor stands to lose is limited to the $8.60 paid to establish the
spread. But if the strategist has bullish expectations for AAPL, why not just
buy the 380-strike calls? After all, had the trader simply purchased the
380-strike calls, their profit potential would be theoretically unlimited, as
there's no limit to how high a stock can rally. In the simplest terms, while a
long call can offer an appealing profit potential, the vanilla call buyer
would've needed AAPL to muscle atop the $409.37 level (strike plus premium
paid) just to break even. Plus, they would've been out the entire $29.37 paid
for the call had the stock failed to live up to the lofty expectations. By
simultaneously selling the higher-strike call, the strategist not only slashed
their breakeven rail, but also reduced the maximum risk (and initial cost) by
nearly 71%. At last check, shares of AAPL have surrendered more than 4% to
linger in the $356 vicinity. In order to rebound and extend its quest for record
highs as per the strategist's expectations the stock will have to power atop
both its ten- and 20-day moving averages, which haven't been toppled since
August 1. As alluded to earlier, though, the options bull isn't the only
member of AAPL's fan club. According to Zacks, the security has earned 37
strong buys and four buy ratings from analysts, compared to three lukewarm holds
and not a single sell suggestion. Plus, only about 1.3% of the stock's float
is dedicated to short interest, and it would take less than a day to buy back at
AAPL's average pace of trading. This article originally appeared on

Monday Apple Rumors: It’s a Whole New Mac
Here are your daily Apple news items and rumors for Monday: Mac: The Next
Generation: Despite the fact the ultra-thin line of MacBook Air laptops has
enjoyed two hardware revisions and unprecedented success in the past 12 months,
it appears Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ) thinks those devices arent enough of a presence
in the traditional computer market. A new rumor originating at Macotakara.jp and
reprinted at Apple Insider said Apple is preparing an entirely new line of Macs
, and those machines might hit the market as soon as this fall. These new
machines will be absolutely different from current products, according to an
anonymous source within Apples Asian supply chain. So different, in fact, that
they might end up using an entirely new brand other than Mac. This would fall in
line with previous rumors that Apple might release a new touchscreen-based Mac
with an adjustable screen, bringing its PC business and its handhelds like the
iPhone and iPad closer together in terms of functionality. Google and Apple Up,
BlackBerry Down: Research firm the NPD Group released its report on the U.S.
smartphone market during the second quarter , and the results look a whole lot
like the first quarter. Google (NASDAQ: GOOG ) cemented its role as the leading
platform holder, with 52% of all smartphones sold during the quarter using the
Android operating system. Apple saw a small boost to 29% of all phones sold. Bad
news for Research in Motion (NASDAQ: RIMM ), though, as BlackBerry phones
accounted for just 11% of all smartphone sales. Microsoft s (NASDAQ: MSFT )
Windows and Hewlett - Packard s (NYSE: HPQ ) webOS systems accounted for 5% of
sales apiece. Lenovo Doesnt Fear the iPad: PC manufacturer Lenovo is just one of
the technology companies watching the iPad erode its business in 2011. CEO Yang
Yuanquing isnt worried, though. Speaking in a Financial Times report (via All
Things Digital ), Yuanquing believes Apples domination of the consumer portable
PC market through the iPad will be short-lived. The reason for this is the
devices high price. Apple only covers the top tier. With a $500 price you cannot
go to the small cities, townships, low salary class, (and) low income class.
Lenovo plans to combat the iPad with a line of Android- and Windows-based
tablets. As of this writing, Anthony John Agnello did not own a position in any
of the stocks named here. Follow him on Twitter at

Hewlett-Packard Shares — 3 Pros, 3 Cons
During the Great Depression, Stanford engineers Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard
launched a startup in a Palo Alto, Calif., garage. Based on a coin flip, they
named the company Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ ). But the tremendous success of
the company certainly was more than luck. Bill and Dave were visionaries who
helped to build Silicon Valley. Unfortunately, things have not gone so well for
the past decade or so. As seen last week, Wall Street is extremely concerned
about HP's new strategic direction. The company plans to spin off its PC
business, spend $10 billion for Autonomy (a U.K. software company) and kill its
tablet business. HP's stock price is down 43.47% for the year. In fact, the
average annual return is 17.42% for the past three years. Yet as seen with
companies like IBM (NYSE: IBM ) and Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ), there certainly are
cases of strong tech turnarounds. So can the same happen with HP? Well, let's
take a look at the pros and cons: Pros Enterprise offerings. HP has a wide array
of technologies for servers, storage and business applications. The business has
healthy margins and should see long-term growth. One key driver is the move
toward cloud computing, which requires lots of infrastructure technologies. At
the same time, the growth in mobile technology should provide an infrastructure
boost, as well. Services. This has become critical for large businesses. And
with its EDS arm, HP is a top player in information technology services.
Essentially, this segment helps to build customer loyalty and provide
opportunities to upsell technologies. It's a model that has worked quite well
for companies like IBM. Printer business. This is a gem. Of course, the company
has a recurring revenue stream from ink purchases. HP also has been effective in
building services around the business, such as with its photo site Snapfish.
Cons PC business. This has been a huge drag on HP as the industry sports low
margins and has little growth prospects. After all, Apple's iPad is eating
into market share. So while it is a good move to spin off the PC business, it
really is too late (keep mind that IBM did this back in 2005). In light of the
uncertainty, the deterioration is likely to accelerate. And competitors like
Dell (NASDAQ: DELL ) will capitalize on the situation. Acquisitions. All in all,
HP has demonstrated a terrible track record with its dealmaking. The purchase of
3Com was a dud. So was the deal for Palm within less than two months, HP
already has abandoned its mobile strategy. Now HP wants to spend $10 billion for
Autonomy. True, the company is in the data analytics market, which is growing
nicely. But the valuation comes at over 10 times revenues. And integration
issues probably will be messy. Morale. It must be tough for most employees at
HP. No doubt, there will be layoffs. Also, the strategy still is unclear. With
top engineers getting lush pay packages from Google (NASDAQ: GOOG ), Facebook
and Zynga, a brain drain might be looming. Verdict As seen above, HP faces huge
challenges. A turnaround is likely to take several years, and it is far from
clear whether the company will enjoy any measure of success. Also, there are no
signs HP will get back its focus on innovation. Instead, it looks like the
company is committed to pursuing financial engineering. Thus, for investors, the
cons outweigh the pros on the stock. Tom Taulli is the author of various books,
including "All About Commodities." He does not own a position in any of the
stocks named here.

Todays DJIA Dow Jones Average Index DJX DJI, Nasdaq and S&P 500 Stock Market Today Investing News Mid-Day
Stocks indices in the U.S. are moving in the green which was a pleasant
surprise for many investors on Wall Street today. Stock action has been choppy
and volatile over the last several weeks so the positive trends are a welcomed
sight. The credit downgrade that the U.S. received initiated the roller coaster
action observed recently in the marketplace, but tension stemming from the
Eurozone marketplace as well as weaker than expected economic posts have been
applying negative pressure as well. Then last week, the Morgan Stanley report
indicated that the economies in the United States and Europe were close to
recession. Stock indices dropped lower and ended the week in negative territory.
Momentum was strongly negative, but futures still set up in positive territory
this morning. Cues from overseas today were mixed. Asian markets closed mixed
and European stocks were moving towards a stronger end to the European trading
session. The primary indices pushed further into the green today as mid-day
approached. The dollar had fallen to the euro and British pound. Gold futures
were on the rise and oil price per barrel was moving higher. Just prior to the
mid-day mark in todays trading session, the DJIA was higher by 1.23 percent at
10,950.55. The Nasdaq was higher by 1.15 percent at 2,369 and the S&P 500 was
higher by .95 percent at 1,133. Frank Matto

The Investing Tightrope: Can’t Relax, Can’t Freak Out
XCSFDHG46767FHJHJF
tdp2664 InvestorPlace Investors can run, but they can't hide from the volatile stock markets. Most people simply can’t retire without some exposure to the stock market in general. The now and the future for these investors, however, is not entirely bleak. First of all, not everyone is panicking. Corporate insiders, for one, are staying put , as CBS Moneywatch recently noted. The sell/buy ratio among corporate insiders in early August was at its lowest point since March 2009. Big-shot executives might not be smarter than anyone else, but they usually don’t hesitate to run for the exits when times get tough. Wild swings in the Dow Jones Industrial Average might be scary, but they aren't necessarily the end of the world. The market likely will remain volatile for weeks, or maybe months, as the debt crisis in Europe continues to unfold and President Barack Obama unveils his jobs plan. The volatility can't be ignored entirely, and people should monitor their stocks more closely than they did when times were good. Remember, panic selling eventually leads to bargain hunting by investors. Many pundits argue that many blue-chip stocks are at rock-bottom prices. I recently snapped up shares of McDonald's (NYSE: MCD ), Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO ) and Target (NYSE: TGT ) for my personal account. Investors don't have better alternatives to prepare for retirement than the stock market . The U.S. mutual fund industry held $11.8 trillion in assets at the end of 2010, according to the Investment Company Institute. That might seem like a huge amount of money, but it probably should be higher. Experts repeatedly have pointed out that many people's retirement savings are in poor shape. A recent survey by Fidelity Investments found that 30% of Americans nearing retirement don’t want to know if there are fiscally strong enough to quit working . Another report by the Employee Benefit Research Institute found that only 13% of respondents were confident their savings would last through their golden years. Bonds are safe, but their returns are far more modest than stocks. Cash and cash equivalents such as treasury bills are very safe but offer even worse returns. Famed economist Nourial Roubin recently told The Wall Street Journal that he was putting most of his money into cash, arguing it's better to be safe than sorry. He never addresses the tougher question of when to jump back into the stock market , though. It's a key issue because most people — including professional investors — are unable to successfully time the market. Real estate is not going to rebound for several years. Buying antiques and collectibles might pay off over time if someone buys something great (a Picasso painting or Babe Ruth's hat) and is lucky enough to find a willing buyer, which is not a given. But remember the average valuation of items brought to "Antiques Roadshow" is about $50 — hardly enough to quit one's day job. Gold prices hit a new record Friday of $1,867.80 per ounce. Will it go higher? Probably. Morgan Stanley recently hiked its 2011 gold price forecast by 8% to $1,511 per ounce and has it continuing to rise through 2012. But what happens after that is anybody's guess. Historically, gold has been a terrible investment over the long term. A dollar invested in gold in 1801 would have been worth 78 cents by 1998. The average inflation-adjusted return of the stock market since 1802 is about 7%, says Jeremy Siegel of the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business. The stock market might not be the only game in town, but it's the best one for investors. Jonathan Berr owns McDonald's, Coca-Cola and Target.

News in the U.S. and overseas has been skewed negative and index composites have dropped lower as a result. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell lower overall for the last trading week by just over 4 percent. The string of negative finishes have been adding up and investors expect this week to be volatile as well. Investors are still attempting to process the report from Morgan Stanley that stated that the U.S. and European economies are “dangerously close” to a recession. The news, paired with the negative momentum that has built over the last several weeks, continues to be debilitating for the marketplace. Futures though this morning are posting values in the green. Futures for the Dow, Nasdaq and S&P 500 were posting green prior to opening bell this morning and as the halfway point in the trading session approached, index composites were still trending in positive territory.

Previous close for Google posted at 490.92 according to Google Finance. The opening morning of the week brings some relief for stock value and index composites. Frank Matto

The Investing Tightrope: Can’t Relax, Can’t Freak Out
Investors can run, but they can't hide from the volatile stock markets. Most
people simply cant retire without some exposure to the stock market in general.
The now and the future for these investors, however, is not entirely bleak.
First of all, not everyone is panicking. Corporate insiders, for one, are
staying put , as CBS Moneywatch recently noted. The sell/buy ratio among
corporate insiders in early August was at its lowest point since March 2009.
Big-shot executives might not be smarter than anyone else, but they usually dont
hesitate to run for the exits when times get tough. Wild swings in the Dow Jones
Industrial Average might be scary, but they aren't necessarily the end of the
world. The market likely will remain volatile for weeks, or maybe months, as the
debt crisis in Europe continues to unfold and President Barack Obama unveils his
jobs plan. The volatility can't be ignored entirely, and people should monitor
their stocks more closely than they did when times were good. Remember, panic
selling eventually leads to bargain hunting by investors. Many pundits argue
that many blue-chip stocks are at rock-bottom prices. I recently snapped up
shares of McDonald's (NYSE: MCD ), Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO ) and Target (NYSE: TGT
) for my personal account. Investors don't have better alternatives to prepare
for retirement than the stock market. The U.S. mutual fund industry held $11.8
trillion in assets at the end of 2010, according to the Investment Company
Institute. That might seem like a huge amount of money, but it probably should
be higher. Experts repeatedly have pointed out that many people's retirement
savings are in poor shape. A recent survey by Fidelity Investments found that
30% of Americans nearing retirement dont want to know if there are fiscally
strong enough to quit working . Another report by the Employee Benefit Research
Institute found that only 13% of respondents were confident their savings would
last through their golden years. Bonds are safe, but their returns are far more
modest than stocks. Cash and cash equivalents such as treasury bills are very
safe but offer even worse returns. Famed economist Nourial Roubin recently told
The Wall Street Journal that he was putting most of his money into cash, arguing
it's better to be safe than sorry. He never addresses the tougher question of
when to jump back into the stock market, though. It's a key issue because most
people including professional investors are unable to successfully time the
market. Real estate is not going to rebound for several years. Buying antiques
and collectibles might pay off over time if someone buys something great (a
Picasso painting or Babe Ruth's hat) and is lucky enough to find a willing
buyer, which is not a given. But remember the average valuation of items brought
to "Antiques Roadshow" is about $50 hardly enough to quit one's day job.
Gold prices hit a new record Friday of $1,867.80 per ounce. Will it go higher?
Probably. Morgan Stanley recently hiked its 2011 gold price forecast by 8% to
$1,511 per ounce and has it continuing to rise through 2012. But what happens
after that is anybody's guess. Historically, gold has been a terrible
investment over the long term. A dollar invested in gold in 1801 would have been
worth 78 cents by 1998. The average inflation-adjusted return of the stock
market since 1802 is about 7%, says Jeremy Siegel of the University of
Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business. The stock market might not be the
only game in town, but it's the best one for investors. Jonathan Berr owns
McDonald's, Coca-Cola and Target.

What May Foreshadow a Sudden Market Collapse
On Friday, most of the bad news fromEuropewas based on fear that a Lehman/Bear
Stearns type of crisis was about to hit the European banks. And soU.S.markets
started off lower following a drop of over 1.5% forGermany's DAX, which fell
8.6% for the week. Talk of a double-dip recession kept selling pressure high for
the entire day, and by the close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average had fallen by
1.57%, with the Nasdaq off 1.62% and the S&P 500 down 1.5%. The four-week
decline for the Dow is the worst since early in 2009. Last week alone it fell 4%
while the technology-laden Nasdaq lost 6.6%. On Friday, volume on the NYSE
totaled 1.5 billion shares, which is slightly less than the average of the week,
a sign that selling may shortly abate, but there were over three times more
sellers than buyers on the Big Board.
