YEN - likely to gain



If the GBP and Aussie were strong against dollar like most of the other currencies then Yen was a spectacular exception. USD has actually gained on Yen when it has fallen against most of the currencies. en

This does not bear good news for Yen, which is loosing ground against a weakening Dollar. There has been hue and cry about how low the Yen is. The issue is likely to gather more steam and most probably the result will be the steady and gradual strengthening of Yen. The strengthening of the Yen is also inevitable because of the expected hike in the interest rates.

Technically, the Yen looks set for a rally. The expanding form that Yen gained from in Feb and its consequent rally in March has been retraced by 61.8%. Dollar was not able to break above the 120 barrier and has fallen again. The trend at present is clearly down for dollar. There would be shorting opportunities in the dollar on a bounce up to 120. Even on the breach of 120, the dollar is not like to show strength. For the dollar to gain massive strength, the level of 122 are crucial.

Conclusion: Short opportunities on any rise up to 120. The likely target is in the range of 116-116.5. The passive stop-loss to be above 122. The aggressive trading stop loss above 120.

Net Neutrality - Fight for free expression

The "Net neutrality" issue, where we fear networks/infrastructure providers will decide (euphemism for censorship) what customers will read/watch/listen/buy on net. Many of the features that we fear in the "Net-neutrality" have already been implemented across various other platforms like telecom. For example, my telecom service provider has blocked the competitors GPRS sites and also does not allow access to many other sites on Internet, from where the free goodies like mobile applications, software, games, wallpapers, tones etc can be downloaded. This leaves me with the only service provider for above products, the service provider himself. This is totally blocking my freedom and my right to choose. This is just a glimpse; with "Net-neutrality" issues at stake are enormous. There should be no way; any entity (maybe, other than individual governments.) should be able to determine what is accessible and what is not. :) Falkor

Definition of Cult Stocks

From a blog: A classification describing stocks that have a sizable investor following, despite the fact that the underlying company has somewhat insignificant fundamentals. Typically, investors are initially attracted to the company's potential and accumulate positions in speculation that its potential will be fulfilled, providing the investors with a substantial payout. While most of these cult stocks promise they will be the next big story after they make a new discovery or get the newest contract from the government, most do not provide investors with anything other than the story. Furthermore, these stocks typically generate very little, if any, revenue at all. For example, many micro-cap biotech stocks are cult stocks. While they promise that they are going to be working on a miracle compound or drug, most of them do not have any source of income as they slowly burn away their initial capital in research and development. However, some cult stocks do occasionally make good on...
