A week without posting - here's what I've been up to

Wow, it's been a week since my last post. During that time markets have gone through some wild gyrations and the Trade-Radar blog has been silent.

I just want everyone to know that I've been busy working on a site redesign. The blog now gives you a preview of how things will look. Unfortunately, this process has been quite time consuming and has kept me from my usual rate of posting.

In addition to the new look and feel, I will soon be rolling out a members-only, premium section of the site that will provide some new stock signals. I'm quite excited about this but I want to do it right so I need to devote a serious effort to it before making it public. Stay tuned - there will be more information about this forthcoming.

In the meantime, if you'd like to register your opinion of the blog's new look, please leave a comment or send me an email.

Brazil - in a bubble or on a roll?

A couple of years ago, no one recognized the real estate bubble even though it was under everyone's nose. Now, analysts and bloggers are seeing bubbles everywhere they look. One of them, they say is in Brazil whose Bovespa stock market index has doubled in the last 12 months. Does the bubble accusation hold water? I don't think so and here are 7 reasons why Brazil is by no means a bubble economy: Exports have held up over the past year thanks to demand from China for Brazil's soya exports and iron ore. This was helped by the the Brazilian government's drive to improve trade links with Asia and Africa. Export diversification, spurred by a more active trade policy and increased focus on "south-south" trade under current president Lula, helped mitigate the decline in demand from OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) countries A "sensible" economic framework has been in place since the 1990's. This has included inflation ...

Time to be conservative with your 401K

Most of the posts I and other financial bloggers write are typically focused on individual stocks or ETFs and managing active portfolios. For those folks who are more conservative investors, those whose main investment vehicle is a 401K, for example, the techniques for portfolio management might be a little different. The news of stock markets falling and pundits predicting recession is disconcerting to professional investors as well as to those of us who are watching our balances in an IRA or 401K sag. What approach should the average 401K investor take? Let's assume that the investor is contributing on a regular basis to one of these retirement accounts. There are two questions that the investor needs to ask: 1. Should I stop putting the regular contribution into stocks?
