Can you believe that it has been a whole year since our launch of Buried Treasures? There were plenty of nay-sayers who thought I was crazy to start a stock-buying service at the height of the recession, but I knew it would be a great time to buy companies that would otherwise never have been in reach.
So in today's Buried Treasures, I take a look back on the year as well as discuss some recent news from China and how it's affecting our portfolio. I also tell you about one of our Buried Treasures that reported record earnings and provide updates on our current stocks.

The snow on the East Coast this winter is one for the record books. My home state of Tennessee can barely enjoy the melt from one storm before another one comes along.
Interestingly, it looks like the markets are having their own kind of snowstorm as well. The international stock exchanges are being shaken up this week on a few fronts. So in today's Buried Treasures, we talked about the increase in unemployment numbers, the decrease in consumer confidence and Greece's debt problems.
Although these are solid concerns, I honestly believe that the market reaction is overdone. We are just in the beginning stages of a recovery so reports like these are going to upset the market regularly. We're still seeing excellent results with many of our earnings and I have updates for you on some of our buried treasures that have reported as well.

Signs of the recovery continue to show up! The two biggest pockets of uncertainty—unemployment and housing are even progressing. I wouldn't call them a turnaround story yet, but the numbers are improving.
In addition, the Fed is working to keep the recovery on track and has bumped up the discount rate in order to wean banks off of the stimulus program that was provided to get us out of the recession.
So in today's Buried Treasures, we talk about the recent reports on unemployment and housing, as well as how the altered discount window will affect the markets. We also had some great earnings report this week and some positive news for our current stocks.

The markets finally rebounded yesterday after having a few shaky days due to the sovereign debt crisis in Europe. Luckily, leaders at the European summit reached a deal to assist Greece with its debt crisis which helped relieve Wall Street.
These events occurred during the MoneyShow in Orlando and I can't help but notice that the past two years during this occasion, something has occurred to upset the markets. No matter, the MoneyShow proved that sentiment is up with more bullish attendees—and who can blame them?
With signs of the recovery coming from all angles, I'd say the next bullish turn is just around the corner. So in today's Buried Treasures, we talk about these signs as well as some great earnings reports that we have received, and are still anticipating. I also have a new recommendation for you in the technology sector as well as some profits for us to take to help fund all these new Buried Treasures.

The politicians in Washington showed their ignorance of world finance this week as they threatened to not reconfirm Bernanke as the Fed Chairman. This sent world markets tumbling. I tend to try to ignore the politicians, but this time they've gone too far. If the legislators continue their shenanigans, I believe that they could possibly push us back into severe economic consequences.
What's interesting is that this really isn't a new phenomenon. So in today's Buried Treasures we talk about what the Washington politicians are doing and how we need play our stocks until this mess is dealt with.
There is some positive news. Earnings season seems to be doing very well and we have some upcoming earnings of our own. I'll tell you when to expect them and where to find the results.

It's been a pretty dismal week on Wall Street, especially after yesterday's three-digit decline in the DJIA. The recent three-day decline, as you know, has been due to a combination of poor earnings reports, one big political surprise and Obama's new bank restrictions.
The impact on the markets from these events was enormous, so in today's Buried Treasures I take a closer look at each as well as their affect on our portfolio. I wouldn't get too upset over the recent market though–we've had a great run and this is just the volatility that we've been anticipating.
With that in mind, I have a new recommendation for you in the Chinese pharmaceutical market. I've been very impressed with China's economy right now and think we should get in on the profits while they last! In addition, we also will be selling one of our Buried Treasures due to it being acquired by another company.

We're all in this together, and one of the features of Buried Treasures Under $10 that I'm most excited about are the message boards, where we can build a real community of folks like us who want to profit from undiscovered and undervalued stocks that are ready to explode.
I will join you on the boards, stopping by frequently to add my comments and answer your questions. We'll also schedule specific times for us to "chat." So head on over to the boards to see what your fellow members have to say!
