0 Jobs Added Ensures Government Response

The President knows that the 2012 election will hinge on the health of the economy and jobs picture.

The Fed has a dual mandate of keeping inflation in check and promoting maximum employment.

So there should be little doubt that they are ready to act after Friday's Employment Situation report showed 0 jobs added in August. And their response could come as early as this Thursday when Bernanke speaks in the afternoon followed by President Obama's address that evening.

The rumor mill is abuzz discussing the various plans they may initiate. Even a recently bearish guy like me has to admit that they could come up with growth oriented strategies that would change the economic outlook for the better. And I would gladly become a bull again if that's what's in the cards. So I will wait with great anticipation of what they have in store and react accordingly.

Company Insiders on a Buying Frenzy

It's very interesting that when the stock market was making new highs a few months ago, insider buying was nearly non-existent. Perhaps they knew of the troubles to come. Yet now, with many of their stocks down 20-30-40%, corporate insiders are active buyers once again. As history proves, their track record of success is phenomenal and has to be heeded.

But as you can imagine, not all insider buys are the same. Some are more telling of future stock gains than others. We have done the research to find those important clues. And want to share the top insider trades with you. Better act fast as this list of stocks will be closed after midnight tonight, Tuesday September 6th.
