Januar y 26, 2011 Fed Pol icy g ives t raders an ex tended l i cense t o Specul ate!

The FOMC announced that the Federal Funds Rate will remain at zero to 0.25% though at least

late 2014. The Fed warns of significant downside risks from global financial stress. The Fedstill describes the housing market as depressed. THE FOMC IS PLAYING RISKY GAMES.Savers on Main Street are getting the shaft for at least another three years, while homeownerson Main Street cannot negotiate a mortgage rate at 100 basis points above the 10-Year yield.These low rates allow Wall Street to rebuild speculative positions. Fundamentally, ValuEngineshows stocks less attractive as 63.4% of all stocks are undervalued versus 93.5% on October4th. Fifteen of sixteen sectors are undervalued with Medical undervalued by 13.7% and Retail-Wholesale slightly overvalued. The dynamics remain the same for the major equity averageswith the Dow Industrials, S&P 500 and NASDAQ above their quarterly pivots at 12,478, 1305.4and 2777 and the Transports and Russell 2000 below their quarterly risky levels at 5448 and829.03. The yield on the 10-Year note approached my semiannual risky level at 1.903 and is

below its 50-day simple moving average at 1.961 percent this morning. Gold took out mysemiannual pivot at $1659.4, which targeted my monthly pivot at $1706.7 with my quarterlyrisky level at $1740.9. Crude oil is trading around my quarterly pivot at $99.87. The euro versusthe dollar is above my semiannual pivot at 1.2980 and its 50-day at 1.3087.

10-Year Note (2.003) My annual value level is 2.502 with a daily pivot at 2.020, and semiannual,quarterly, monthly and semiannual risky levels at 1.902, 1.687, 1.409 and 1.385.
