Smart Money Favors Stocks
"We remain leveraged bullish (200% long) on the U.S. stock market. Amid all the market turmoil during the past three weeks, two key factors have not changed: the U.S. economy continues to grow rapidly, and corporate America continues to announce massive float shrink. "

Boom Times By Scott Woolley
"The company Biderman founded, Trimtabs, has made a nice business selling its liquidity data to mutual funds and hedge funds for between $15,000 and $150,000 a year. More recently it has opened up its own fund for private clients, seeking to repeat its past success at calling market turns. (Following Trimtabs calls to buy S&P Index funds in bullish times and going to cash in bearish periods, Biderman says his fund would have yielded 104% since 1998, versus 48% for holding the S&P the entire time.)"

What The Market Is Telling Us
"To the extent that U.S. mutual fund investors are interested in stocks at all, they're interested in foreign ones. According to fund-flow tracker TrimTabs Investment Research, last year saw U.S. funds draw just $20billion in inflows, compared with nearly $150 billion dedicated to hot foreign investments. If there are excesses in global markets, they're far more pronounced overseas than they are in the U.S. And if history is a guide, the U.S. market is where investors will run if and when emerging markets get choppier."

Time To Be A Bit Aggressive By Dan Dorfman

Investors Warm To U.S. Stock Funds By Trang Ho
"Performance chasers should watch out for a severe correction abroad. The rapid advance in foreign stocks, especially the BRIC countries, came to a screeching halt this week. A 9% plunge in the Shanghai index sparked a worldwide sell-off Tuesday. If the global markets keep correcting, that could be very good for U.S. stocks as they (investors) will want to put their money back into U.S. markets, said Charles Biderman, president of TrimTabs, a research firm that tracks fund flows."

China Syndrome By Dan Dorfman

Investors Bail Out Of U.S. Stock Funds By Trang Ho
"In January, investors stuffed $12 billion into world stock funds, according to estimates from fund flows tracker TrimTabs. They retrieved $2 billion from U.S. stock funds. The lopsided asset flow trend is unsustainable, said TrimTabs President Conrad Gann. We believe it's driven by return chasing, Gann said. A correction in emerging market and international funds will eventually lead to funds returning to the U.S."

Buyouts and Buybacks Remain Poised to Drive Markets By Igor Greenwald
"The figures come from TrimTabs.com, which estimates that cash buyouts and share buybacks absorbed more than 3% of the U.S. market cap last year. No wonder the NYSE Composite index went up 18% last year despite a virtual boycott of domestic stocks by mutual-fund buyers. The real wonder is that the market's benefactors may have no choice but to spoil it yet again."

Crystal Balls and Ground Glass By
David Miller
"The answer, according to this article and the good folks from TrimTabs, is the total market cap shrunk by $600 billion in 2006. Even conservatively assuming the same amount of money is in the economy now as at the beginning of last year, fewer goods to buy with equivalent demand (money) means prices will go up.."

Leading Indicators Tell Us What to Expect in 2007 By
Clif Droke
"While monetary liquidity is increasing, the supply of shares outstanding in the stock market has been shrinking steadily to form a potentially bullish combination. This has been mostly a consequence of share buybacks, M&A, the private equity trend, and Sarbanes-Oxley. The stock market liquidity analytical firm Trimtabs Investment Research recently observed that for 2006 the amount of oustanding shares has fallen by approximately $500 billion. Trimtabs observed, "U.S. equity fund inflows from 2001 through 2006 have been much lower than they were from 1995 through 2000. The bull run since 2003 has occurred even though indvidual investors have not been big buyers of U.S. equity funds."

Sound and Fury of US Payrolls By
John Authers
Charles Biderman of TrimTabs Research describes BLS figures, and the notion that the US is sliding into recession as "utter nonsense". Tracking income tax withholdings data, he says that the wages of those on payrolls jumped by 6.7 per cent year-on-year during the period from November 10 to December 4. He says the BLS misses the self-employed – baby boomers working at home – and hence misses the new boom."

Investing:
Chasing a Trend By Doug Rogers
Conrad Gann, TrimTabs' president and chief operating officer, notes that the current rally has been fueled less by inflow from retail investors and more by contraction in the supply of stocks outstanding. "That's favorable," Gann said. "It's not like the previous peak, where the market was pumped up by a huge flow coming in every month."
