Stock Market Difficulties
The article written by Ben Rooney entitled “No news is good news for stocks?” is about the inner organization of the stock market. In the beginning the author tells the reader, that there wouldn’t be any news in the sphere of economy, so the investors can keep calm. Dow Jones industrial average and the S&P 500 both ended flat for the week, and the Nasquad is higher for a fourth straight week.
The Fed was the centre of attention for a long period of time, when people found out about the possibility of decreasing its $85 billion per month. Thus, a lot of people do not consider the good economic news to be not a sign of a good chance to invest money, because of the risk of tapering. Author suggests the alternatives for investment (the bond market). The statistics supports his views. However, Keith Springer doesn’t believe that the Fed is about to tapper soon.
Author provides some numbers, for the reader to find out about the situation in other companies. This article is totally related to the business, because it deals with the information, useful for the businessmen for decision making. The overview of the economical situation in the stock market is very useful for those people, whose businesses are closely connected to investments and gambling. Business can be strongly affected by the article, because the fed company can lose its potential investors and the gamblers can have a chance to avoid unnecessary loss. As a result the other companies can get more investors, and the investors more profit, but only in case, the author’s predictions are true. So, the article can generally decrease the number of gamblers involved into stock market in the nearest future.

In October 1929, the United States stock market crashed due to panic selling. This crash started a rippling effect that contributed to a world wide economic crisis called the Great Depression. This crash was such a shock because of the economic expansion of the 1920’s when the Dow Jones average reached an all time high of three hundred eighty one. The year 1928 was a time of optimism and the stock market had become a place where everyday people truly believed that they could become rich. People everywhere were talking about the market and newspapers were reporting stories of ordinary people such as chauffeurs, maids, and teachers making millions off the stock market. People who didn’t have the money bought on margin. The stock market was booming and the excitement about the market caused a lot of over speculation. People ignored the small signs of the impending crash until Black Thursday, October 24, 1929. Four days later the stock market fell again.
The events that unfolded on September 11th and the days that followed also profoundly effected the stock market. It is the purpose of this paper is to examine what happened to both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the NASDAQ after September 11th and how it is similar to events such as the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the Oklahoma City bombing, and the Gulf War in terms of how the stock market experienced a blow and bounced back after a while.
Not only were millions of Americans been put out of work due to these manager’s actions, the American financial markets themselves were pushed to the brink of collapse. Despite the fact that the global financial markets, in reality, are not perfectly efficient, there is a corrective mechanism built into the day-to-day trading in the market. When prices are driven down by large sells, either by large investors or a movement in a stock, there are usually new buyers for these stocks at the cheaper price. Managers of...

The United States signaled a new era after the end of World War I. It was an era of hopefulness when many people invested their money that was under the mattresses at home or in the bank into the stock market. People migrated to the prosperous cities with the hopes of finding much better life. In the 1920s, the stock market reputation did not appear to be a risky investment, until 1929.First noticeable in 1925, the stock market prices began to rise as more people invested their money. During 1925 and 1926, the stock prices vacillated but in 1927, it had an upward trend. The stock market boom had started by 1928. The stock market was no longer a long-term investment because the boom changed the investor’s way of thinking (“The Stock Market Crash of 1929”). The Stock Market Crash of 1929 was a mass hysteria because of people investing without any prior knowledge and the after effects that eventually led to the Great Depression.

During the prologue, it is described that a financial analyst, Meredith Whitney, made national headlines for successfully predicting that Citigroup firm needs to “slash its dividend or go bust.” This book makes gives the impression that Whitney started the beginning of the economic collapse. This seems unlikely; Whitney only made the prediction that she made based off of her analysis of the markets. Fortunately, she gained the nation's ear. She called out all Wall Street firms and told them that their investments and mortgages were worthless. She was bold and truthful when the everyone else doubted her.

We analyzed the market for two weeks to determine when the equity market would turn from a bearish to bullish market. Without a change in the market and a declining bond price, we decided to invest in equities according to our investment strategy, which brought us into the second phase of our portfolio.

As assumed, the equity market continued to plummet decreasing the value of all our stocks except for our Gold Corporation stock.
