The Week Ahead

A look where the market left off on Friday… and what to expect this week November 03, 2013     The Week Ahead     Dear Daily Reckoning Reader, U.S. markets closed higher Friday after positive manufacturing data were released. The U.S. ISM manufacturing index beat expectations, rising to 56.4 from the previously recorded 56.2. That's the highest it's hit since April 2011. At the same time, Chinese manufacturing data as recorded by the purchasing managers' index hit 18-month highs. Looking forward to next week, a slew of economic data will be released, including: factory orders, the ISM nonmanufacturing index, jobless claims, GDP data and personal income and outlays. Also, earnings season continues and the soon-to-be former chairman of the Federal Reserve Ben Bernanke will speak on a panel in D.C. about Policy Responses to Crises. Might be a few entertaining snippets. We'll keep you updated. In the meantime, be sure to spend a few minutes reading through our experts' investment ideas, below. Each presents you with a very different investment approach as well as a unique opportunity. Read on...   Not for Further Dissemination By Byron King No one likes war. It's dirty business.

Review: A New Playbook for Financially Free Life By Doug Hill Worried that Obamacare could cancel your health insurance or send your premiums sky-high? Disturbed over the NSA's abuse of power to snoop on you, your children and other innocent Americans?

If so, there's finally something you can do about it… Back By Popular Demand: The Chaffee Royalty Program By Sam Buker It's back by popular demand. The way to sit back and watch the money pile up. That's all you have to do. It's a way simpler strategy than buying into traditional stocks. Not to mention that in the past they've soared 300-500% higher. Plus, there's no hard work involved. Anyone can set one up in as little as five minutes. The program has nothing to do with options trading or anything risky like that.

I strongly suggest you spend at least three minutes and decide for yourself. How to Earn a Fast $600 From a Tiny Nook in the Market By Thompson Clark Is your retirement on track?
