Today's Trade & News

Dear Members,

Today I thought about the recent rise in oil prices and its potential impact on the world economy as I took my morning tea. I thought of the traffic on US highway 101, the traffic situation in India and China as well as the growing number of cars and the importance of road transport. It is quite clear to me that we are in a risky situation and the rising oil prices could have a profound impact on the world economy. Interestingly, it seems that most people are resigned to the situation and have accepted to quietly pay the high gas prices without much fuss.

The rise of gold and silver does not have major impact on a large section of the population, but an increase in oil has direct impact on the daily life of an average person. I am not an economist to try and describe the negative impact of rising oil prices, but I am sure that you all understand it quite well – my job is to predict the future trend. The current speculation in commodity prices will soon end and somebody now taking a 3 months short position from metals, oils and grains will be surely benefit after 19^th of November.

OIL

Everyday one learns in the area in which they work, and I am also learning new things in astrology each day as new planetary combinations that never occurred before taking place. The current bull market for oil could last till the 19^th of November. If oil prices rise in December, then I will change my prediction to between $150 and $180 in the next...

ALTERNATIVE ENERGY

I have been writing on alternative energy for the last 18 months but in last six months I have been devoting more attention to this area. This is because my astrological outlook encourages me to look at it more closely. In recent months I have quietly attended several conferences without revealing my identity and the future that I see for the energy sector is that alternative energy will replace oil. The stocks that I have been recommending have gone crazy and I believe that they are still at the initial stages. I see new Google’s and Microsoft’s being born in this sector, therefore watch closely. If there are promising companies that you like in the USA or internationally, please share with me so that I can also share with my other members.   

Futures markets especially commodities and currencies are very volatile and we all know the risks involved when we trade in them. Investing in the stocks or ETF will not make your account balance zero if you put your investment in the right place at the right time. Most of my members and close associates invested in technology in 1996 and in metals and energy in 2001 and the same people have been buying on my recommendation for the last year.

Early this year and last year, I recommended alternative energy stocks and they given us more than 100% return and still I am expecting getting returns from these companies for the next three years, these stocks are: FSLR, TSL, STP, SPWR, JASO, KYO, ASTI, SPIR, ABAT, CSUN, ENEI, DSTI, SOLF, AKNS, CSIQ, WWAT, EPOI, SESI, DLSL, BLDP, ESLR, UGTH, NGLPF, ASYS, EMKR.

A few companies that haven’t moved include QTWW, MKTY, HYGS, ENER and XSNX. Others that have great potential though they are very cheap stocks are ESRG, LTHU, TSSP, EEEI, SLRE, DESC, CPST and this does not however mean that you ignore them.   

2007 Recommendation of Alternative energy stocks 

The world doesn’t have much choice other than adopt alternative energy sources in daily life in areas like transportation, power and household use. I have been very bullish on solar, battery, fuel cell, ethanol, bio-fuel and uranium and I now have more reasons to stick with my prediction. In conclusion, I support alternative energy stocks because they will give a safe and sure source of energy to future generations.   

Thanks & God Bless
