Hi friends, my name is Simit Patel. In addition to being a contributing blogger here at InformedTrades, I also trade currency -- primarily the AUDUSD and USDJPY. I'll be blogging about market analysis and macroeconomics, with a focus on the US economy.

Default Trading Ideas for October 13, 2008

I want to try scouring the web and posting interesting trading ideas from other bloggers whom I respect and consider knowledgeable on the web. Here is my first attempt.

TickerSense lets us know which US stocks have had the biggest moves since September 29. If the market is set to correct, as many are expecting, some of these big movers may give back their losses.

Tom Lydon is bearish on the fundamentals of Hollywood.

And even more telling is that the average ticket price then would cost $3.06 today. Hollywood also faces a number of issues that didn’t exist back then, including cable television, Netflix and the internet.

While a number of theater owners are saying that business is brisk, recession or not, one wonders why concession prices are skyrocketing and the pre-movie ads seem to run longer than the movies themselves. Hollywood also faces a strike by the Screen Actor’s Guild (SAG) that could wind up costing $500,000 per day.
TraderJamie says it's getting close to being time to be a gold bull again.

I'm seeing the Dollar Index at 81.60 at the moment.
