http://www.valuengine.com/pub/Unsubscribe? August 19, 2011 Record Low 10-Year Yield, Record High Gold = Risk Aversion! The yield on the 10-Year US Treasury declined to a new all time low at 1.973 on Thursday, while gold traded to another new all time high at $1872.2 this morning. Crude oil fell below its 200week simple moving average at $83.93 as a sign of a weakening global economy. For the major equity averages the key supports are: The 200-week and 120-month simple moving averages at 10,730 and 10,569 for the Dow Industrial Average. My annual pivot is 2335 on the NASDAQ. Given the record low yield for the 30-Year bond and the weakness in the equity markets, the fundamentals become cheaper in terms of ValuEngines Valuations. At the Feb 18th high we had a ValuEngine Valuation Warning with more than 65% of all stocks overvalued. At the May 2nd high we had a ValuEngine Valuation Watch with more than 60% of all stocks overvalued. Today only 12.5% of all stocks are overvalued. Back in March 2009 less than 10% of all stocks were overvalued. The negative technicals are trumping the positive fundamentals. 10-Year Note (2.083) Semiannual, weekly, annual and quarterly value levels are 2.414, 2.576, 2.690 and 3.053 with a daily pivot at 2.062, Thursdays low is 1.973 and my semiannual risky levels at 1.672.

Equity Fundamentals Stocks are cheap, but not as cheap as in March 2009. 87.5% of all stocks are undervalued / 12.5% of all stocks are overvalued. In March 2009, 91.1% of all stocks were undervalued. All sixteen sectors are undervalued, fifteen by double-digit percentages, thirteen by 20.69% to 31.07%. Back in March 2009 the sectors were undervalued by 33% to 45%. - find out which ones at www.ValuEngine.com. The Healthy Homeowner Refi - The best way to help the housing market is to help those who are current on their mortgages. The 30-Year Fixed Rate Mortgage from Freddie Mac is at a record low of 4.15 percent, but this is more than 200 basis points above the yield on the 10-Year US Treasury. It should be just 100 basis points off the 10-Year yield. Heres how it can be done. Offer a Ginnie Mae backed 30-Year Fixed Rate mortgage at 100 basis points over the 10-Year US Treasury yield. With the 10-Year yield at 2.10 the Ginnie Mae government-backed mortgage rate would be just 3.10 percent. Ginnie Mae borrows from the US Treasury to create the funding pool. They keep 50 basis points to cover costs and the servicing bank gets 50 basis points. This will put money in consumers pockets that they do not have today. Other ways to help the housing market includes: Allowing any homeowner to reduce a mortgage by taking funds from a retirement account without penalty and without paying taxes on these funds. A tax help would allow a homeowner who sells a home at a loss, to have that capital loss as a tax deduction amortized over ten years.
