\n\tBy Rudi Filapek-Vandyck<\/span>, Editor FNArena<\/span><\/p>\n

\n\tI joined Twitter. Not because I am curious what this celebrity has to say about her kids, or to read that another one is waiting for a connecting flight, impatiently. Twitter allows me to follow news and commentary sources such as Dow Jones' Marketwatch<\/span>, Bloomberg News and the Wall Street Journal. It assists me in keeping up with what is happening across the globe, while I am observing and analysing<\/span> financial markets myself.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile I am on Twitter, reading a quote here and a news flash there, I offer my own succinct insights and commentary. Those amongst you who have already discovered the virtues of a Twitter account can add my Tweets to their daily news via @filapek<\/span>.<\/p>\n

\n\tFor those who have no intention to join Twitter, but would like to stay up to date, below are my Tweets from the week past:<\/p>\n

\n\t– You never hear anyone complaining about "shorting" when the market melts up. How about a collective 'Thank You' from all market commentators?<\/p>\n

\t– Probably the biggest risk to equity markets is funds managers (high in cash) now getting worried about "being left behind", bias to upside<\/p>\n

\t– This deal buys time but does not address Europe's problem of a lack of growth and does not address problems at the heart of the euro area.<\/p>\n

\t– NABCapital<\/span> believes present optimism is likely to be maintained in the near term, with plenty of milestones in Europe on the agenda for Nov<\/p>\n

\t– Predicts GaveKal<\/span>: strong US GDP data might carry equities rally into year end<\/p>\n

\t– GaveKal<\/span> analysis: market direction determined by US and China, not Europe. A strong US Q3<\/span> GDP could set off the next leg of the equity rally<\/p>\n

\t– EU plans not the end of EU debt crisis but should help avoid a near term global financial blow-up http:\/\/bit.ly<\/span>\/rqXkrl<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\t– NAB doesn't agree with current aggressive rate cut pricing in Oz bond market. Hence why NAB forecasts AUD above USD parity throughout 2012<\/p>\n

\t– Oz Stockbrokers: Downgrade for CQR<\/span>, RMD<\/span> and WRT<\/span>, upgrade for Alacer<\/span> Gold, forecasts cut for RMD<\/span>, Mirabela<\/span> Nickel pleases, Atlas Iron not so<\/p>\n

\t– The S&P 500 has now risen 3 consecutive weeks, or 11% so far in October, poised for its best monthly gain since 1991<\/p>\n

\t– DJIA<\/span> is on track for its second-ever monthly gain of 1,000 points or more (currently 979 points), 1st time was in April 1999 (1,002.88 pts<\/span>)<\/p>\n

\t– Report Citi<\/span> analysts (after meeting with RIO CEO): Fukushima will likely impact sentiment and uranium demand for the next 3-5 years<\/p>\n

\t– Oz stockbrokers: downgrades for WSA<\/span>, PRY (though overall sentiment pos<\/span>), upgrade for SingTel<\/span>, UBS initiates AUT<\/span> on Buy, RBS<\/span> warns on RMD<\/span><\/p>\n

\t– Says Standard Chartered: a Grand Plan in Europe might relief,but won't alter bigger picture of sluggish growth in The West due to high debts<\/p>\n
