Debt-To-Equity Oil Bankruptcies And Hedge Fund Investing Suggest Oil Price Floor, Industry Rebound | Seeking Alpha
This is a very good article about how the bottom has probably happened for the price of oil. Production of U.S. oil will continue to decline through 2017, and this will gradually diminish the oil surplus. Investors are already getting long on oil because of the light at the end of the tunnel. If you wait until the oil surplus disappears, you will miss out on the oil price rise.

4 Fixed Income CEFs To Protect Against 'Rising Interest Rates' (Yield Up To 9.3%) | Seeking Alpha
4 Fixed Income CEFs To Protect Against 'Rising Interest Rates' (Yield Up To 9.3%) | Seeking Alpha
This is a great article about fixed income CEFs offering yields between 7% and over 9%. The author focuses on short-duration holding CEFs with high yields. All of the CEFs mentioned pay their dividends monthly. So, you get constant gratification that you are making money each month. It is also unlikely that the general stock market will beat these yields since stocks are at a market top. You will also have gut-wrenching volatility with stocks because everybody knows that stocks should go down, and yet powerful forces continue to keep the market afloat because they do not want to kill the golden goose yet!

The Last Innings Of An Aging Bull Market | Seeking Alpha
Here is an outstanding article about the state of the stock market. As the author stated, the bull market has gone on for so long that hedge funds have been demolished since nobody can predict where stocks are going next. The 2015-2016 chart of the Dow shows a clear market top downtrend like 2000-2001 and 2008-2009, and yet the market refuses to go down. It is rallying toward new highs instead.

Fibonacci Calculations
Home - Fibonacci Stocks
A lot of information exists at Fibonacci-Stocks.com, but I want to talk about Fibonacci calculations today. Trends occur frequently in the stock market where the S&P 500 or another index might go in an upward direction without any significant drawback for a long period of time. When a peak occurs which is followed by large correction, you can then analyze the pattern that just occurred.
For example, the S&P 500 fell to 666 in 2009 at the close of the last bear market. From a low of 666, the S&P 500 went to a value of 1219 in 2010 almost uninterrupted. A downtrend occurred from 1219 which ended the previous uptrend. So, 100% of the uptrend happened between 666 and 1219. The stock market in 2010 continued the downtrend until it reached 1010, and this happened to be a 38.2% retracement of the previous uptrend. Since the market reversed to another uptrend at 1010, the retracement cycle was completed at that point. The lesson that we can learn from this is that a 38% retracement is a buying opportunity if we are not in a bear market. Interest was also low in 2010, and stocks will grow when interest is low.

How Far Will Stocks Fall? - SPDR S&P 500 Trust ETF (NYSEARCA:SPY) | Seeking Alpha
How Far Will Stocks Fall? - SPDR S&P 500 Trust ETF (NYSEARCA:SPY) | Seeking Alpha
This is an outstanding article by Eric Parnell which explains the ups and downs of the stock market. Fibonacci pattern retracements occur often, and Eric has done a great job of explaining these movements. Whether you believe in Fibonacci numbers or not, Wall Street has enough investors who do abide by the numbers to make it a predictable sequence that should be observed.
Since we do not know when the market will fall, we need to apply these principals to tradeable bottoms rather than tops. In other words, if we see stocks falling hard, we should note the last significant peak and figure out where a 38.2% retracement from the peak would leave us. Then, we could buy quality stocks or ETFs at this probable bottom. If we are in a recession or bear market, the bottom will be somewhere near 50% or 61.8% from the top.

Goldman Calls Lithium The New Gasoline - Get In Before It's Too Late Or Stay Out? | Seeking Alpha
Goldman Calls Lithium The New Gasoline - Get In Before It's Too Late Or Stay Out? | Seeking Alpha
This is a great article about bright prospects of lithium in an otherwise dull stock market. AES is particularly attractive because they have gained over 20% recently due to their storage power business. They also have a dividend of almost 4%. Multiple companies are also entering the electric car market. This will increase the demand for lithium. GALXF is a lithium producer worth being on your watch list. It has gained more than 100% in the past year.
HMGLF is another good lithium producer. I own this stock myself. They have a contract for supplying lithium to Tesla for five years. They are located near Tesla's gigantic battery factory that is being built in Nevada. It has gained over 100% in the past year just like Galaxy above.

Here is an excellent article on the skin healing benefits of Tamanu oil. It promotes the formation of new tissue and speeds up healing. It is anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory. Tamanu oil has even been used for leprosy and gangrene. One case of gangrene was completely healed. You want to buy Tamanu oil that is cold-pressed and green in color. I recommend the Pur 365 brand that you can buy at Amazon.com. The oil is also not irritating, and it can be used for many skin problems.
