Thankfully, there are now several web sites that are there to help people like you with bad credit to find the fast personal loans that you need. When you have bad credit, the first thing that you should be looking for is a loan company that If your financial problems have reached the point where you do not see a way out and you feel as though you are drowning in debt, your best way out is through declaring bankruptcy. Filing may well allow you to get your finances back on track
Small-cap companies will be the leader this year followed by technology, which was something I had suggested at the beginning of 2010. Small-caps continue to outperform, with the Russell 2000 up over 24% this year and above its previous high of 745. Large-cap technology continues to show encouraging signs towards tech spending. Following strong results from Research In Motion Limited (NASDAQ/RIMM) and Oracle Corporation (NASDAQ/ORCL), Adobe Systems Incorporated (NASDAQ/ADBE) beat revenue and earnings per share estimates. I expect tech and small-caps to drive trading again in 2011. I will provide my commentary and predictions for 2011 within the next few weeks. Banks are also providing some leadership. Wall Street is also jumping on the bull. The Bank of America is the latest Wall Street firm to suggest strong moves for the S&P 500 in 2011. It expects the S&P 500 to trade at 1,400 in a year driven by technology and energy. Previous estimates were: J.P. Morgan: 1,425 Barclay Capital: 1,420 Goldman Sachs: 1,450 The news domestically continues to be encouraging. Subject to heavy debate and compromise, President Barack Obama signed an $858-billion package to extend tax cuts for an additional two years and unemployment benefits that are set to expire. The package should help consumer spending and growth. But what Im concerned with is the debt and growth situation in Europe. Moodys Investors Service cut its rating on Allied Irish Banks, Bank of Ireland, EBS Building Society, Irish Life & Permanent and Irish Nationwide Building Society. So, while I feel markets will continue to edge higher into 2011, I also still believe in risk management. I advise taking some profits prior to the year-end. In addition, take a look at some of your losers to see if you want to absorb some losses to be used against your gains. With stock markets closed this Friday and with the Christmas break upon us, trading will slow down this week and in the week prior to New Years. At the end of the day, we can all rejoice over what was a decent year for stocks. Enjoy the gains, and soon we will gear up for 2011.
