Summer Resort Island In Canadian Arctic
By Monty Guild
CURRENCIES
U.S. Federal Reserve leaves rates unchanged, but
Korea and Canada raised their interest rates this
week…all the more reason to hold currencies other
than the U.S. dollar.
OUR CLIENTS' PORTFOLIOS
We are holding resource and foreign companies for
our clients. We hold very few U.S. stocks that
are not involved in resource industries.
AS WE HAVE SAID RECENTLY...A GLOBAL MARKET RALLY
IS UNDERWAY
Take your pick. Most countries are enjoying a
good summer rally with many new highs. Let’s
start with the I's, India and Indonesia, then
Singapore, Thailand, Philippines, Hong Kong,
Korea, and even Japan is flirting with multi-year
highs. China has had a good rally but it is still
below the highs of May and June.
How about the Americas? Canada, Brazil and
Argentine are at new highs. Even the U.S. is in
new high territory. Europe also has many markets
hitting new highs.
Global liquidity patterns are strong. Central
banks are supplying excess liquidity and someday
it will all come to an unpleasant end. However,
the sun is out today and we will enjoy the good
financial weather and keep an eye our for rain
clouds. The year has been a good one and we will
want to protect our profits. We expect a good
market rally through August and then we will
watch for a fall correction, so we expect to take
a lot of profits in mid to late August, and then
recommit after the expected seasonal pullback.
U.S. MARKET
As many of you may know, the last six decades the
mid October to mid May period has been the best
for U.S. stocks, with May and June usually weak
and July-August often providing a summer rally,
followed by a decline in September and early
October. This pattern is not a guaranteed annual
event but it sometimes works out that way.
GLOBAL MARKETS
Other parts of the world have different patterns
and are driven by a much different, and currently
much better, fundamental backdrop. Globally
corporate profits are growing much faster than in
the U.S., global economic growth is much faster
than in the U.S. and so on.
We expect a continued uptrend in the better
global markets punctuated with periods of
correction. For the past several years, the wise
approach has been to buy during these periods of
correction. We plan to continue that approach.
Thanks for listening

Africa is Not a Country: Education and Children's Literature About the African Continent in the Age of Obama
With the election of Barack Obama, a leader with family in Kenya, educators could find themselves rethinking and revising how they teach the continent of Africa. Thanks to an illustrated children's book, "Africa is Not a Country", many American students are aware of the vibrant diversity of Africa's 53 countries. Without a rounded education about the continent, generalizations about the countries and cultures can limit our understanding of the continent and create harmful stereotypes. Educators across the country will be focused on issues like this the week of November 17th as it is both International Education Week and Celebrate Geography Awareness Week. (PRWeb Nov 17, 2008)
