Market Tips: Oil Could Fall to $34, Silver Shines
Text Size 
Investors struggled to keep a year-end stocks rally going, battered by worries about the state of the global economy and uncertainty about the impact of numerous government rescue plans.

Oil Prices May Slide to $34
Oil prices could fall as low as $34 a barrel if the U.S. inventories show a larger-than-expected build on Wednesday, says Akhi Kamkolkar, head of futures at Halifax Investments.
Stocks to Rebound Briefly, then Fall Again
Global stocks could rebound by 25% but earnings could drop by 21%, according to Ian Scott from Nomura. He sees earnings rebounding in 2010.
"We haven't hit the lows in equity markets," Khuram Chaudhry from Merrill Lynch said, adding that stocks could bounce 20-30% in the second quarter but will end the year in the red.
Chaudhry advises investors to remain defensive but to start looking at the consumer discretionary, media, retailers and beaten-up financials. But be selective, he warns.
Scott agrees, adding that he is overweight on insurers and thinks there are opportunities in emerging markets.
