My editor was traveling last week, so we didn’t publish The Cody Word. So let’s dive into some headlines that every investor and trader should be reading.
ThatMattered.com - Learn how to trade and invest successfully from real historical events. The world’s coolest, smartest and most-addictive Wall Street trading game ever – Stock Market Events That Mattered (Or Did They?), a fantasy stock market world where the player would go back in time to some of the biggest events in markets history and choose how to play each set up. The game is designed so that anybody, regardless of trading and investing experience can play it, learn from it, and have a blast doing it.
Apple charts signal trouble – I trimmed higher as noted repeatedly here on The Cody Word. And as I told my TradingWithCody.com subscribers earlier this morning, I bought some back today. Know your Apple history.
Brace for worst earnings since recession’s rebound – I saw about five headlines and articles about this over the weekend. Markets are at multi-year highs though. I’m much more comfortable about most of my company’s earnings growth prospects than the broader markets’.
PC sector trading for scrap value, but patient investors required – Lots of insightful analysis on the tech sector as it is in tumult right here right now.
Europe Launches $648 Billion Aid Fund – Yeah, that’ll fix their insolvent banks and sovereign governments, right? It won’t but it keeps the can kicking going.
World food prices near crisis levels – No doubt that food prices have been climbing overall lately.
But take a look at this chart of the DBA ETF, which consists of the following according to Yahoo! Finance:
| Top 10 Holdings (91.69% of Total Assets) |
|---|

The price of these food items in the US is down 20% over the last eighteen months, and at the same levels it was two years ago. That’s not to downplay the significance of food inflation, but let’s keep to the facts.
Hedge Funds Cutting Trading Budgets Amid Slump, Survey Finds – Hedge funds had a horrible year, but I’d also suggest that the hedge fund sector isn’t about to disappear anytime soon.
JPMorgan Feigns Injury From Lawsuit Pinprick – Will we ever have justice for the banksters?
China Tech Giant Huawei Is Under Fire – This is probably good for Cisco and Juniper.
