Last night, President Obama gave his State of the Union speech to the American people. The speech was more like a high school football coach talking to his team at half time. President Obama referenced the strong stock market rally as a major accomplishment. However, he never referenced that the money that is propping the stock market higher must be paid back with interest and the U.S. debt is becoming unsustainable. He never mentioned that the United States needs to borrow money just to pay its debt service. President Obama never mentioned the food riots that are taking place in various nations around the world due to the inflation that is being caused by the Federal Reserve Bank. If he only knew the cost of artificial growth. Most Americans voted for change and simply got more of the same. I think the American people want their change back.
The major stock market indexes are all trading slightly higher this morning. This small gap higher open in the market is common after all State of the Union speeches. Last night the Chinese government made a new rule that requires all citizens that want to buy a second home must put a 60 percent down payment on the home in order to qualify to buy the property. Wow, it is amazing how much the Chinese have learned from the mistakes made by the United States. The Shanghai Index actually rallied higher last night by 1.17% on the news. The iShares FTSE/Xinhua China 25 Index ETF(NYSE:FXI) is trading higher by 0.5 percent this morning. Recently, China, India, and most other emerging countries have began to increase interest rates to curb the high inflation that these countries are experiencing.
This afternoon the Federal Reserve Bank will announce their interest rate policy. Really this FOMC meeting looks to be a waste of time since they are not expected to make any changes to the current Fed funds rate which is at zero percent. The Fed funds rate is the overnight lending rate to the large major banks such as J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.(NYSE:JPM), Bank of America Corp.(NYSE:BAC), Wells Fargo & Co.(NYSE:WFC), and Citigroup Inc.(NYSE:C). Most other banks that borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank must borrow from the Fed discount window which is 0.75 percent. In any case the Federal Reserve is not expected to say anything negative about the economy.
The State of the Union address is over and next up is the FOMC announcement this afternoon. The stock market in the United States continues to trade higher nearly everyday as the Federal Reserve Bank continues to pump billions into the market everyday via it’s 0 billion quantitative easing program. Stay tunes as markets usually get very volatile and interesting after these meetings.

Over Trillion In Debt And The Market Loves It
Many investors will often say that the stock market leads the economy. While in the past this has appeared to be the case on many different occasions, is it really true? That question is open for debate. The current situation for the economy looks to be slightly different. Throughout the past 97 years every time the Federal Reserve Bank(which is the central bank to the United States) has lowered interest rates to extremely low levels the stock market has inflated higher and recovered.

Does The U.S. Dollar Index Effect The Market Anymore?
Recently, the U.S. Dollar Index has staged a small two week rally. The U.S. Dollar Index made a short term low around the .00 area on February 2, 2011. This morning the U.S. Dollar Index is trading higher by 0.33 cents to $ .59. Usually, when the U.S. Dollar Index rallies higher the major stock market indexes and most commodities will deflate and trade lower. However, the rising U.S. Dollar Index has had very little effect on deflating the stock market over the past two weeks.

Oil should still be front and center when it comes to market sentiment. Gasoline prices at the pump in the United States are now averaging .50 a gallon which will certainly hurt consumer spending.

Pre-Market News & Movers
The uprising in the Middle East and North Africa continues to escalate. Countries such as Libya, Iraq, Iran, Egypt, Bahrain, and possibly Saudi Arabia are being effected at this time.

The Keys To The Next Market Move
The markets are having their second straight bounce day on the back of light volume and continued semi calm in the Middle East and Northern Africa. Libya continues to be in a civil war but overnight China began putting pressure on Moammar Gadhafi to step down. This helped drop oil back to the flat line which pushed the futures higher. The key to oil and the markets remains, whether or not the unrest spreads to Saudi Arabia.

Fear and panic have driven the oil market sharply higher over the last few days. Just last week crude oil was trading at per barrel. Overnight, spot crude hit 3.00 per barrel. This massive spike was all on the back of unrest in the Middle East. Libya is now in what appears to be a civil war but the biggest fear on Wall Street is whether or not it would spread to Saudi Arabia. There have been rumors, panic and much more but as of now, it seems it is subsiding. After hitting 3.00 overnig

Is The U.S. Dollar No Longer A Safe Haven?
Anytime the global market markets have come under pressure the U.S. Dollar has rallied higher as a safe haven trade. Investors will usually run and buy U.S. Dollars as a form of security. After all the dollar is the world’s reserve currency. However, since the protests and riots began in the Middle East over a month ago the U.S. Dollar Index has declined lower. This is very uncharacteristic of what we have seen over the past 10 years. Usually, when the U.S. Dollar Index declines the stock market
