Humans are a sick bunch of YoYo's maybe it was the Blood Moon thing over the weekend... How really sick is that... "Oil is screaming higher with the middle east collapsing into complete ruin. Oil sure loves a big body count. It just may get huge one. A low body count probably puts oil back into the 40's since burning oil the old fashioned way is going out of style. The money rotation into oily things should then rotate out. Wash. Rinse. Repeat."
Astro-ology appears to have a handle on the Yo and Yo... http://www.mmacycles.com/weekly-preview/mma-comments-for-the-week/mma-comments-for-the-week-beginning-april-6,-2015/ SHORT-TERM GEOCOSMICS The surprising shocks in economic reports and sharp back and forth moves in world stock indices is consistent with both the favorable Jupiter transits as well as the Sun translating the recent Uranus/Pluto square, all taking place April 2-8, with the April 4 lunar eclipse right in the middle of it all. Even Gold and Silver made wild gyrations last week, with Gold falling from a high of 1220.40 on March 26, to a low of 1178.20 on March 31, and then back above 1208 on April 1. The volatility is likely to continue this week as the Sun conjuncts Uranus on Monday, April 6 and Jupiter ends its retrograde motion and turns direct on Wednesday, April 8. On top of that, the “Sagittarius Factor” (Moon in Sagittarius) kicks in April 8-9. That usually coincides with big price swings in metals and treasuries. But all of these signatures have correlation with surprises and big price swings. Uranus and Jupiter are especially important, and with the Moon in Sagittarius (Jupiter’s natural sign), it is just exaggerated – just the way Jupiter and Sagittarius like to roll (everything is exaggerated with these principles being highlighted).
However, exaggeration and hype are not limited to financial markets. They will be front and center in the words of politicians too. Be careful of what you believe. This is not a time to trust the words or intentions of others. Serious losses can unfold, caused by poor judgment. Jupiter and Sagittarius do not lack a sense or appreciation of truth, but rather a grip on discernment and accuracy in reading the reality of a situation. They want to believe. They don’t always want to know. And the difference is what can leads to losses.
http://marketfy.com/content/78310-worst-earnings-season-in-5-years On New Year’s Eve, forward earnings expectations underlying the Standard & Poor’s 500 index were pegged to rise 4.2% during the first quarter versus a year earlier, according to FactSet data. Now that same group is projecting a fall of -4.6% in estimates!. This would mark the first decline in forward estimates since 2012. All 10 S&P sectors have seen estimates slide, but nothing is as bad as the energy sector. Due to the continued slide in oil prices, first-quarter earnings estimates are expected to plummet a whopping -64%.
Then there was that truly stinky jobs number that came out last Friday which, at the very least, gives consumers and economists pause until next month. All told, current economic conditions create a rather messy and uncertain situation going forward that could impact both Q1 earnings and future guidance to boot. And if there is anything investors do NOT like, it is future uncertainty.
