New
York City, NY, USA (March 19, 2013) -- Mr. Edgar Perez, author of
The Speed Traders and the forthcoming Knightmare on Wall Street, and
keynote speaker at Golden Networking's High-Frequency Trading Leaders
Forum 2013 London, "Strategic and Tactical Insights for
Investors, Speed Traders, Brokers and Exchanges", March 21,
warned of an impending correction in the US equities markets coming
as early as in the second quarter. The full article can be read at

Mr.
Perez attributed the recent Dow Jones Industrial Average's (DJIA)
longest winning streak since 1996 to very good corporate earnings and
monetary policy that pushes investors to take risks in equities. So
he asked himself if the earnings momentum is sustainable.
"Unfortunately, savings from the smaller share of the pie from
labor, government spending and earnings coming from emerging markets
(EM) outside the US are all factors that will be curtailed at some
moment. Is the Fed eager to continue being the huge player in this
equation? Some of its members are increasingly worried about the
effectiveness of the continued QE; if the labor market recovers, as
the January numbers showed, the Fed most probably might be ending its
bond purchases soon."
"What
the equity markets want indeed is stable and/or predictably
increasing US profits and the Fed to stay in the bond markets.
Somebody has ironically suggested that markets' best hope might be a
cut in government spending deep enough to kill job growth and
indefinitely extend QE, something that nobody else would agree with.
Instead, markets would be happy with a bit of positive news today
followed by another bit of negative news tomorrow. Unfortunately for
the markets, profits will start showing stagnation starting with
first quarter results. Federal Reserve said in September 2012, when
QE3 was announced, that it would start pumping $40 billion a month to
purchase agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) until the labor
market improves substantially. When will the Fed determine that the
job market has made enough progress to reduce stimulus? The numbers
for February will prove paramount in this regard. As these two
important factors converge in a nightmarish scenario, equities
markets should beware of the ensuing correction, coming as early as
in the second quarter."
