Why It's Time for a Stock Market Sobriety Check - Fortune

As this issue was going to press, the U.S. Senate passed a tax-cut bill that, should it become law, will almost certainly energize the animal spirits of American corporations. Republicans in the Senate and the House still have a bit of cloakroom legerdemain to do before there’s a final 500-page piece of legislation for the President to sign. But in the end, businesses will surely get a grab bag of goodies, from a dramatically reduced corporate tax rate to more favorable rules on expensing capital investments—much of which they’ve been pining after for years.

For investors, the people who actually own these public companies, the news ought to be just as rosy. After all, if corporations are paying less to Uncle Sam, then there will be more profit to parse out to shareholders. Companies might choose to do that indirectly, by reinvesting the extra cash in a new factory or business that...

3 Things to Know About the Stock Market Before Tomorrow Happens - TheStreet.com

Is it Friday yet?

A Wild Day for Bitcoin

Who knows what tomorrow holds for bitcoin. If it's anything like Thursday, then trading will be absolutely mind-boggling. The digital currency has surpassed five major threshold prices in the past two days. After trading above $16,100 midday Thursday, bitcoin pared gains slightly, still higher 16.18% for the day to $15,971.05 Thursday afternoon. Crazy time. I talked with CME Group CEO Terry Duffy today ahead of his company's big launch of bitcoin futures next week. Stay tuned for that piece.

(RTTNews.com) - The China stock market has fallen lower in four consecutive sessions, sliding almost 45 points or 1.4 percent in that span. The Shanghai Composite Index now rests just above the 3,270-point plateau although it may halt its decline on Friday.

The global forecast for the Asian markets is positive on optimism the U.S. government will avoid a shutdown, and a bump in crude oil prices. The European and U.S. markets were up and the Asian bourses figure to open in similar fashion.

The SCI finished modestly lower on Thursday following losses from the financials, properties and resource stocks.

Next stock market crash will look different than the financial crisis ... - Business Insider

4338151 next-stock-market-crash-will-look-different-than-the-financial-crisis-business-insider

trader upset 2008 financial crisisReuters / John Gress

  • The stock bull market is well into its ninth year, and signs of fragility have firms like Bank of America Merrill Lynch looking ahead to the next big crash.
  • By BAML's calculation, the next bear market will be in line with past occurrences, and nowhere near as volatile as the 2008, 1998 or 1987 crashes.


Stock bull markets don't last forever, which is why it's a useful exercise to start bracing for the next big crash. Or at the very least, it's helpful to know what kind of damage could result from the inevitable downturn.

In order to do so, Bank of America Merrill Lynch looked at past S&P 500 bear markets — generally defined as a 20% drop — and analyzed the volatility that has accompanied them. To them, the key is looking at the degree of price swings leading up to the crash.

And based on the fluctuations seen during the ongoing 8 1/2-year bull market, the firm...

Australia's main stock exchange has said it will become the first global market to use the technology behind Bitcoin to clear and settle trades.

The Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) will replace its current clearing system with blockchain technology.

The new system has been in development and testing for more than two years and aims to cut the cost of transactions, and make them faster and more secure.

A timeline for the transition to the technology will be given by March.

ASX chief executive Dominic Stevens said the move to distributed ledger technology - also known as blockchain - will "put Australia at the forefront of innovation in financial markets".

Blockchain is a method of recording data via a digital ledger of transactions, agreements, contracts...

Flynn story gives glimpse into fragile state of stock market - New York Post

4338155 flynn-story-gives-glimpse-into-fragile-state-of-stock-market-new-york-post

The stock market tanked briefly last Friday on a misleading ABC News report that made it seem as though President Trump’s legal problems were increasing.

That report, which got an ABC News correspondent in deep trouble, said Trump gave orders to retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn (then a national security adviser) to contact the Russians before he won the election.

It was later corrected that the order came after Trump had won — during the transition.

On that correction, the stock market regained most of the ground it had lost.

Friday’s action gave us a preview of what is going to happen if Trump gets into real trouble.

Early on, I was following this stuff closely and had very good sources. These days, I’m working on a story that I can’t tell you about that — if it turns out to be true — will dominate the headlines for months.

But last year, I was one of the first — if not the first — to...

As 2017 winds down, can the stock market count on a Santa Claus ... - Dallas News

December may bring the first day of winter, but the hot streak in the U.S. stock market is showing no signs of cooling.

As of Nov. 30, the Standard & Poor's 500 index was up 18 percent, putting it on track for the third-best year of returns since the financial crisis. So much for the naysayers who have called for a stock market crash this year that's never materialized.

With 16 trading days left in 2017, nothing on the horizon seems to put the market's rally in peril. Rather, December historically is one of the best months for stocks, with the S&P 500 delivering average monthly returns of 1.4 percent, according to data compiled by Yardeni Research.

And stocks could get a further boost from Congress, the Federal Reserve and Santa Claus. Here's what to watch in the month ahead — and beyond.

By Sara Sjolin and Anora M. Gaudiano, MarketWatch

Broadcom rallies after results

The main U.S. stock benchmarks edged higher in early Thursday trade, driven by gains in the technology, industrials and energy sectors.
