After reporting quarterly results that negated fears of weaker transactional volumes, PayPal’s stock bounced back. There are a number of reasons the former eBay (EBAY) subsidiary will give strong returns for investors. Interest for PayPal never fell since October 2015. Per TickerTags, the count of mentions for PayPal held steady, at a million. There is still a direct correlation between PayPal and eBay. Even after the separation, the frequency of mentions for eBay and PayPal were in sync: Source: www.TickerTags.com As mentions for eBay improved by mid-Jan... -

WTI Crude Oil And Natural Gas Forecast – February 3, 2016
WTI Crude Oil The WTI market fell again during the session on Tuesday, as we broke below the $30 level. It now appears that the market is going to continue to go much lower, reaching towards the $28 level. That is an area that offered a significant amount of support previously. We ended up bouncing enough to go all the way to the $34 level last time we tested this region. That being said, we could get another bounce, but I think that will only incite more selling. I do not see this market rallying, at least not for any real length of time even though we get Crude Oil Inventories coming out of America today. Any rally at this point in time off... -

Dividend Income Update January 2016
It’s dividend income update time. One of my favorite times of the month as I get to review my previous month of passive income received from my dividend income portfolios. Without rehashing the wild ride we experienced in January too much, I could find comfort in one thing, my dividends. As we all know, the market may move up and down irrationally and seemingly on a whim while our dividends remain much more stable, reliable and predictable. Sure, dividends may not increase every year and a cut or elimination is even possible but the odds are greatly reduced when you diversify among different companies and sectors and focus on dividend quali... -

Europe Falls, U.S. Futures Rise As Oil Halts Two-Day Plunge
While the biggest news of the night had nothing to do with either oil or China, all that mattered to US equity futures trading also was oil and China, and since WTI managed to rebound modestly from their biggest 2-day drop in years, continuing the trend of unprecedented, HFT-driven volatility which has far surpassed that of equities and is shown in the chart below… … despite the API reporting a jump in oil inventories, rising back over $30, and with China falling only 0.4% overnight after the National Team made a rare, for 2016, appearance and pushed stocks to close at the day’s high, US E-minis were able to rebound from ove... -

Copper Flattens, Gold Holds Up As Oil Slip Triggers Risk-Selling
Oil price slid below $30 mark again in New York yesterday as weekly data from the American Petroleum Institute showed a 3.8 million barrel stock build. This abundant supply contrasted with recent mixed manufacturing gauges in China and Eurozone. The figure also matched expected inventories for official data by U.S. Department of Energy tomorrow. Volatility returned just as the world’s two largest oil & gas companies Exxon Mobil (XOM) and BP (BP) reported lowest earnings in a decade. As market’s expectation focuses on oversupply, a spot on report by DoE tomorrow may not be perceived so badly, hence support price consolidation. Gold p... -
