The Abundance Engineer August 2011 - Crisis Brings Opportunity

Headline -  Crisis Brings Opportunity

Now that Hurricane Irene has passed and things are getting back to normal,  it would be wise to look at theopportunities that the markets tend to present post hurricane.

The markets are likely to shrug it off by Tuesday as we have a busy earnings week this week. However, the long term damage is very bullish for certain commodities and sectors. In anticiption of a pullback on Monday I have placed 3 quality stocks in our portfolio that are in a very seasonally strong sector that consistently out-perform the market this time of year.

Premium: The Abundance Engineer August 2011 - Gold Due A Correction

Headline - Gold Due A Correction

A number of things happened over the weekend that are leading me to make a few changes to the portfolio. The fighting in Libya and ongoing wars created by the US will be good for Raytheon the stock I added to our portfolio last week.

 

Raytheon pays a 4.3% Dividend. Has an exceptional EPS of 5.44. A P/E of 7.4 and is wallowing around all time lows. The 1 year target is 60 and it is currently at $40.20. We added it to our portfolio at 41.20. It's currently trading at around $40 so if you haven't picked it up yet now may be a good time.

 

A number of reasons why I am buying more puts on Gold.

 

We received an alert from Interactive Brokers on Friday that some commodities would be seeing margin hikes next week. The alert is posted in my blog. This means Gold & Silver. We are all still recovering from the margin increases in Silver in May which brought the price from $50 to $30 in a few days. Silver is more volatile than Gold so it is unlikely we will see the same effect as we did in Silver. Support for Gold is at 1650 & 1550.

 

There has also been a lot of open interest this week in Gold puts at 1550. We are seeing record premiums for Gold puts so the market is expecting a correction.  

 

I've also published a report on the blogtheabundanceengineer.blogspot.com 

from Mark Linker at Zee LLC gives a very good case for a temporary correction. Mark has been in the business for a while and is a great analyst.

 

There is a great argument from Peter Schiff on Bonds being overvalued aswell.

 

Put your email in the box on the blog and you will get alerts whenever I post anything.

 

Finally the GLD putsGLD110930P00150000 we bought a few weeks ago with a strike of 150 are up 35% today yet GLD is up 2.5%. This is highly unusual downside activity while GLD is rising.   

 

Therefore I have added to our Gold puts as insurance for our Gold long position. The adition to our Gold puts which we purchased today at 0.27 brings our average price to 0.34. Now with regards to asset allocation and money management our puts should only be a maximum of 10% of the value of our long position. If you have $1000 in GLD ETF. Puts should be no more than $100 total value. 

 

Bonds

 

I am still short bonds and recommend adding a small amount to the TBT position. It is currently 50% below what we purchased it for as always restrict to a maximum of 5-10% of your total portfolio.

 

OIL & GAS

 

Our ultra short oil and gas ETF DUG has performed well since we bought at 31.64 on Thursday. We actually got filled at 31.84 however that happened. It currently stands at 36.38. up 14%.

 

PFE never reached our buy price so we didn't get filled on it yet.

 

I am currently waiting for buy signals on certain stocks but I think it's going to take Beranke's magic printing press to get the market moving again.

 

Our potfolio is here.

"Whatever happens comnmodities win"

Gold & Silver

We continue to accumulate and recommend buying Gold & Silver on the dips. We like the ETF's as a long term hold.

 

We continue to recommend holding 10 - 30 % of your investment portfolio in Physical Gold & Silver coins.

 

Become your own central bank. Purchase Physical Gold & Silver & store it at home. Your money in the bank is being used by the bank to purchase Gold for their benefit. Cut out the middle man. Empower Yourself. 

The accumulation of precious metals has to be the most sound financial decision anyone could make.

For those considering making the shift from paper investments to Physical Gold & Silver

Premium Update

As such I would like to relay a very important observation:

 

Bond prices soared to new yearly highs today at 141 06/32. 

 

When the market rallied December and October PUT options did NOT, repeat did NOT depreciate.

 

This could be a harbinger or a “tell” that the peak in prices is near.

 

At the very least it shows me that professionals are not will to sell out of the money, long dated put premium.

 

I will be observing the bond market colosely and will relay any observations.

 

The turn in bonds is getting closer. The name of the game is volatility. The more volatility they can create the more profit can be made. The turn will likely be sharp. Hold your bond positions.

 

Best Regards,
Robert McManus

The Abundance Engineer August 2011 - Comex Raises Margin requirements Again

Headline - Comex Raises Margin Requirements Again

Well it really is a roller coaster of a ride. The market didn't buy Bernake's story. We were waiting for the S%P to establish support at 1130. It held 1130 for a while then broke through support. It now stands at 1120.

The money flocked into Gold again yesterday and we liquidated our GLD posion for a 117% gain on the expectation of further interference by the US to move money back into the Dollar and the US markets. We are happy to add to our Phyiscal metal position but are cutting down on leveraged positions with time value.

The news of the French banks getting downgraded aso drove money from the Eurozone into Gold taking Gold to a high of $1815 an ounce. News just out in the last few minutes that the downgrade has been reversed they will do anything to save their currencies. Gold is up on the news.

If any Government officials or bankers are reading this Asians see through this manipulation. The Chinese ratings agency Dagong downgraded US bonds yesterday once again to A+.  

In a last ditched attempt by the US last night to drive money out of Gold the Comex announced they would raise the margin requirements for Gold & Silver by 22%. Soon you will need to pay full price to trade Gold & Silver on the Comex and there will be no Physical metal left.

Tyler Durden of Zero Hedge confirms my sentiments exactly we were all expecting the Comex to do this. It barely effected the Gold price when the news was released. The only way for the US to bring down the price now is to print money and short once more.

The German newspaper Der Bild the 6th most circulated newspaper in the world ran a front page article encouraging people to buy Gold today.

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/germany%E2%80%99s-best-selling-tabloid-bilds-front-page-encourages-readers-buy-gold

I have been stating that the 3rd phase of the Gold bull market starts at $1764. We are there now. This phase is characterized by strong sharp deep short corrections in price followed by exponential moves.

I am advising clients to cut down on trading and leveraged positions and please start the move into buying Physical metal.  

We do have strategies that allow you to safely capitalize on this phase of the bull market but anything alternative to Physical is  risk capital. I strongly advise no spread betting, margin excess leverage or naked options.

The Abundance Engineer August 2011 - Subscribers Lock In 100% Returns In Our GLD Options In Two Weeks.

Headline - Subscribers Lock In 100% Returns In Our GLD Options In Two Weeks.

Wow what a spectacular week we had in the markets. We were in the best possible position we could have been  entering this last weekend.

Gold made a $100 move on Monday thelargest 1 day up move for Gold in history.

New subscribers locked in a 100% return in their first 2 weeks of subscribing.

I called a 1 year low in the US markets yesterday and we entered 2 positions. These investments are up 23% and 38% respectively in one day.

The Fed announced that Interest rates will stay low until at least 2013 & Employment figures released on Friday indicate a pick up. These are both likely to create a big stimulus in themarket so there is a great opportunity to make some money in the right stocks over the coming months.

There are three sectors that see strong seasonal growth in September & October. Subscribe now and we will show you the stocks that have been hit the worst and have the highest growth potential in these sectors in the coming months. 

Stocks, Bonds & Gold

The Stock market traditionally sees a seasonal low in August and bonds reach a seasonal high. This is why we were out of all stocks and short bonds which were at a seasonal high beforethe crash. I am confident we are in an incredibly strong position with our short bond strategy. All the best Bond investors in the world are short bonds right now.

One reason for this is that Gold is clearly taking the place of Bonds as thesafe haven investment.

A second reason is that the US interest rate has been at an all time low of 0.25% for the last 2.5 years and the Fed announced it would stay at 0.25% forthe next 2 years. The US Government are the only ones buying bonds now. India & China are very happy they can borrow money to build infrastructure at rock bottom rates but cash, savings and bonds will give meagre returns at these rates and will not meet inflation. Stocks, Commodities & Real Estate will  perform much better than cash investments in these conditions. You think you're bank is holding cash. Oh no you're bank is stocking up on Gold.

$1764 Gold is here now; when I wrote this newsletter last week I didn't think we would get here so quick. It is a very significant figure. It defines the third phase of this Gold Bull market. Thephase where Gold goes parabolic. Subscribe now and I will show you how to safely capitalaize on this next great move.

 

Stocks & Commodities are the easiest way I know to generate consistent high returns day in day out year after year in multiple market conditions.
