		<description><![CDATA[There is an old saying on Wall Street that “bull markets climb a wall of worry.” It means that the higher the market goes, the more fearful investors become that the market will drop and their gains will be lost.

		<description><![CDATA[On Tuesday, markets in the U.S. rallied. The Dow Jones, Nasdaq Composite and S&#38;P 500 all showed big jumps. Curiously, data reported on Tuesday did not seem to support a rally, rather it may have confirmed ongoing fears that the U.S. economy has entered a double dip recession. New home sales were below expectations by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After writing my recent post on the price of gold in euros, I saw this article on Bloomberg that explained how Europeans who invested in US stocks got their “best returns in a decade.” The S&#38;P 500 index, up 12.8% in 2010 was up 20.7% in euro terms. The article mentions a 23% return in [...]]]></description>
