Greenfaucet.com is a revolutionary financial content and publishing site which aims to provide the most highly respected, highly credentialed contributors exclusively.

By establishing a stable of the most highly respected writers in the industry in a very balanced manner, we serve to keep the standards of content as high as possible. While other sites aggregate content without any regard for quality or credibility, we strive to provide users with a site offering balanced, objective, professional opinion and research while giving users the ability to interact with their favorite contributors and utilize the latest technology to get hard hitting answers to hard hitting questions.

Our users have the opportunity to sample newsletter styles to help them find a fit for their investment objectives, interests, and preferences, as we hope to create a sounding board for exceptional minds to convey their vision of the markets to an intelligent audience in a consistent manner. For all the broken clocks, one horse races, and single tune instruments, there are writers adapting, researching, and strategizing.

The former group is representative of what is wrong with many sites in existence today. The latter group represents practicality and reality.

We also strive to provide a site that not only gives the user the highest quality content and most progressive technological integration, but as well adapts to the user’s preferences and demands. In other words, greenfaucet is here to provide for the user. Who is the user? You the broker. You the fund manager. You the individual investor. You the day trader. Whoever YOU want to be.

Start a Rating Agency, Why Don't You?

Posted Today at 09:15 PM by greenfaucet.com
By David Merkel, greenfaucet.com

Many finger the ratings agencies for a portion of our current problems, and to be sure, they deserve blame. Many of the recommendations call for eliminating the opinions of the ratings agencies from anything that might determine regulatory capital levels. Let the regulators do it themselves, instead.

That's a nice dream, or, for those in the insurance industry, a nightmare. The insurance industry survived such an institution, the NAIC Securities Valuation Office, and lived to tell of it.

It is said that if you can't get work as a credit analyst, go work for the rating agencies. They always need people, because the competent would never stay around due to low pay....

Currency Matters

Posted Yesterday at 06:09 PM by greenfaucet.com
By Roger Nusbaum, greenfaucet.com

The other day I was doing a little research on East Japan Railway (OTCPK: EJPRY) and stumbled across something important that comes up every now and then that pertains to foreign investing.

The chart shows it. The ordinary shares traded locally in Japan are in black and in gold (or is that brown?) are the ADRs. The local shares are down 20% in the period charted yet the ADRs are only down 5%. The reason for the difference is the strength of the yen.

US investors received the benefit of the yen’s strength against the dollar whereas holders of the stock in Japan did not get the benefit of that currency move. I’ve touched on this effect in years past on my blog and...

Direxion Triple ETFs Add New Horses to Stable

Posted 01-05-2009 at 06:37 PM by greenfaucet.com
By Bill Luby, greenfaucet.com

While skeptics abound about the usefulness of triple ETFs for the long-term investor, I have been saying since early on that the Direxion triple ETFs would revolutionize day trading.

Now that their novelty has worn thin and traders have had an opportunity to experiment with various approaches to trading triple ETFs, these vehicles have become an integral part of the day trading scene, particularly on trend days.

Looking to capitalize on the appeal of these nuclear-tipped trading weapons, Direxion added six new triple ETFs last month. While interest in the new round of ETFs has so far been limited, I predict at least one of the triple ETF pairs has a bright future. My...
