Dollar update: the news is not bad
Article Abstract:
The US dollar has stabilized after a sudden but short period of selling at the end of 1994 caused by the Mexican peso crisis. The dollar-Japanese yen exchange rate reached several five-month peaks a week later, but the dollar had difficulty rising above the $1.56 level against the deutchmark. The decline in gold prices indicates that Latin American monetary authorities may be selling gold as well to protect their currencies. A rise in the dollar exchange rate is a prerequisite to a healthy investment environment. Conversely, continued weakeness in the dollar indicates a bear market.

Today's earnings are yesterday's news ... what will tomorrow bring?
Article Abstract:
Investment analysts expect a large number of companies to report poor earnings in the 1st and 2nd qtrs of 1997 given the rise in insider selling activities during the 3rd and 4th qtrs of 1996. This conclusion is based on experience which shows that insiders often sell their stocks months before a negative earnings report. Thus, investors should avoid firms with high Wall Street expectations and focus on stocks which are being acquired by insiders.
