  • Trading the Pause - ETF Ideas

    (Thu, 29 Jul 2010 13:41:41 -0400)

    In one of his RealMoney.com 7/28/10 blogs, Jim Cramer said of the stock market: “It's nonsensical. It's stupid. It's the way it is as we come into August in what I think most people would admit is the most confounding and hated market we've seen in ages.” The Pause-Trading ETF Model I introduced on Seeking Alpha last week seems, at least for now, made to order for those who agree given its abandonment of equity exposure and its focus on gold and fixed income.

    Here is this week’s top-five list:

  • ETFs: Trading the Pauses

    (Thu, 22 Jul 2010 15:18:39 -0400)

    It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the large number of ETFs that are now available; too many too many choices spread among too many styles, too many sectors, too many asset classes, too many countries, etc. If you have particular preferences, such as a desire for growth stocks, fixed income, developing country investing, etc., that will considerably narrow the choices. But if your goal is simply to find ETFs likely to perform well, whatever type they may be, you face a challenge. Different asset classes and different markets have different trading dynamics (compare commodities with fixed income, for example), so...

  • 5 Bond ETFs for Playing Low Interest Rates

    (Wed, 21 Jul 2010 12:24:29 -0400)

    Tom Lydon submits:

    Economic data coming out isn’t exactly alleviating investor fears and they’re seeking safer bets in these uncertain times. Bond exchange traded funds remain one of the more popular choices, providing liquidity and transparency for a diversified fixed-income portfolio.

    As of May, $24.6 billion in net new money had found its way into fixed-income ETFs this year, or up from last year’s $20.6 billion over the same period, reports Tom Sullivan for Barron’s. Though some believe that bonds just aren’t profitable anymore, there are still some benefits in keeping...

  • Pocket Change Portfolio Update: June, 2010

    (Mon, 12 Jul 2010 05:04:07 -0400)

    Dividends4Life submits:

    The Pocket Change Portfolio (PCP) was first introduced on September 13, 2008 as a real money dividend income portfolio funded by the “pocket change” earned from my various online endeavors. Each month I report on the portfolio’s progress and update its holdings.

    Dividends Received

    Total dividends received during the month were $152.82, consisting of:

  • Filter ETFs for Price Position and Trendline Slope

    (Thu, 08 Jul 2010 19:00:46 -0400)

    richard shawRichard Shaw (QVM Group) submits:

    We regularly filter securities to determine their price position within their trading range, and relative to moving averages, as well as to note the slope of the trend line, as measured by linear regression best fit analysis. After yesterday's strong market performance, we ran the filter again for 917 ETFs, as of July 7.

    The filter identified those ETFs for which the closing price yesterday was above the 200-day average, and for which the 100-day average was...

  • At Least Bonds Are Up

    (Wed, 30 Jun 2010 07:22:03 -0400)

    Hickey and Walters (Bespoke) submit:

    There's been no shortage of commentary recently on the rallying bond market, but we thought it would be useful to highlight just how much well the fixed income asset class has been doing. Here again we use our trading range screen to highlight the overbought levels of the various bond ETFs that we track.

    As shown below, Treasury ETFs of all durations are basically trading two standard deviations above their 50-day moving averages (2 standard deviations above is where the light red shading...

  • Are Fixed Income ETFs Still a Sound Strategy?

    (Mon, 28 Jun 2010 15:21:36 -0400)

    Tom Lydon submits:

    Fixed-income investment strategies have been in vogue amidst all the market turmoil, especially through the use of exchange traded funds. But now, with indications that the global economy may be safely on its way to recovery, some pundits are saying that fixed-income ETFs are no longer desirable. Is that true?

  • Volatile Markets Renew Bond Bubble Concerns

    (Wed, 16 Jun 2010 13:20:33 -0400)

    Tom Lydon submits:

    A record number of assets is expected to continue flowing into bonds and related ETFs this summer, renewing fears that there’s a bubble in this market.

    A projected $380 billion will pour into bond funds this year, more than went into domestic stock funds in the past decade. That’s on top of a record $376 billion last year, reports Paul Lim for CNN Money. Fear and uncertainty in the markets could continue to send investors to bond funds, putting trillions at risk when interest rates rise.

  • 3 Risks of Investing in Bond ETFs

    (Tue, 15 Jun 2010 04:41:38 -0400)

    Kevin Grewal submits:

    Exchange traded funds [ETFs] are known for their ability to provide diversification, low cost alternatives, asset allocation and exposure to hard to reach markets and sectors. From a portfolio management and asset class perspective, bond ETFs do such a thing, however, it is equally important to understand the inherent risks involved with these versatile investment tools.

    The first risk involved with bond ETFs is the risk of default. Bond ETFs hold actual bonds, which are promissory notes. So in essence, these promissory notes are only as good...

  • Better Than 2008 Is Not the Same as Good

    (Sat, 05 Jun 2010 22:53:50 -0400)

    richard shawRichard Shaw (QVM Group) submits:

    Sure, things are not as bad in the stock and bond markets as they were in the depths of 2008 and 2009, but better isn't the same thing as good. The "worry list" in the macro-environment is too long and too severe to think of today as "normal" (unless you are talking about the PIMCO "new normal"), and there are price behavior signs that all is not well.

    Yesterday, we wrote about the S&P 500 being under...
