September 22 Morgan StanleyThe Problem:Morgan StanleyMorgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) is a global financial services provider headquartered in New York City, New York, United States. It serves a diversified group of corporations, governments, financial institutions, and individuals. Morgan Stanley also operates in 33 countries around the world with 600 offices, with an approximate employee workforce of 45,000.[2] The company reports US$779 billion as assets under its management[3]. The corporation, formed by J.P. Morgan & Co. employees Henry S. Morgan, Harold Stanley and others, came into existence on September 16, 1935. In its first year the company operated with a 24% market share (US$1.1 billion) in public offerings and private placements. The main areas of business for the firm today are Global Wealth Management, Institutional Securities and Investment Management. The company found itself in the midst of a management crisis in the late 90s[4] that saw it lose a lot of talent and competence[5] and ultimately saw the firing of its then CEO Philip Purcell in 2005. Since then Morgan Stanley has been undergoing a massive restructuring which also involved job cuts across various of its businesses. On September 21, 2008, it was reported that the Federal Reserve allowed Morgan Stanley to change its status from investment bank to bank holding company.[6] On September 22, 2008, it was announced that Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Japan's largest bank, plans to take a stake of up to one-fifth in Morgan Stanley as part of a strategic alliance.

Bernard Madoff arrested over alleged $50 billion fraud (Former Nasdaq chairman) Posted on Thursday, December 11, 2008 10:14:49 PM by Sammy67 NEW YORK (Reuters) – Bernard Madoff, a long-time fixture and powerful adviser on Wall Street, was arrested and charged on Thursday with allegedly running a $50 billion Ponzi scheme, U.S. authorities said. The former chairman of the Nasdaq Stock Market who remains a member of Nasdaq OMX Group Inc's nominating committee, is best known as the founder of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC, the closely-held market-making firm he founded in 1960. But the alleged fraud involved a hedge fund he ran from a separate floor of the building where his brokerage is based. Madoff told senior employees of his firm on Wednesday that "it's all just one big lie" and that it was "basically, a giant Ponzi scheme," with estimated investor losses of about $50 billion, according to a criminal complaint against him. A Ponzi scheme is a pyramid-type swindle in which very high returns are promised to early investors, who are (Excerpt) Read more at news.yahoo.com ...

F O R E W O R D
Mr. Joseph Yung-Yuan Lai has written a fascinating book "Global Financial Crisis: Cycle Analysis - Life Cycle - Business Cycle - Stock Cycle" explaining economic events around the globe. He has a firm grasp of the workings of both market economies as well as quasi-authoritarian economies of Asia. He is extremely familiar with details about the operation of the securities market in the United States. He is in addition, well versed n Eastern and Western Astrology. In this book, Mr. Lai introduces us to a new astrological theory that could help to divine the future, a benefit both for individuals as well as for corporations. It is natural for many entities to have an nterest in the forecast of the outcomes of their actions, be it in the area of investment, corporate mergers, to introduction of new products and in such personal affairs as job search, choosing the right stocks in the market and marriage. There exists a plethora of economic models that are designed to guide in one's planning process. Mr. Lai's contention is that while economic models are reasonably accurate in the very short run, their usefulness is limited beyond a period of a month. He cites the failure of forecasters and economists to predict the recession of 1990-91 and the Asian financial crisis of 1997-1998. Mr. Lai has created a new astrological theory called, the New Divination - Natural Theory - Life Cycle is based upon his intuition, ancient Chinese Astrology is based on the lunar system and Western Astrology based on the solar system.
The Natural Theory - Life Cycle can be used to determine the best timing for each individual to undertake important personal
decisions such as marriage, switching jobs and investment in
stocks. Mr. Lai divides Life Cycle into four segments: As Rising
Trend Channel, Flat Trend Channel, Declining Trend Channel,
and Zero Point Rhythm. These patterns of Life Cycle vary from
sixty years, twelve years, three years, one-year, three months
and one-month cycle. In each cycle one fourth of the time i.e.,
three months in a one-year cycle, an individual faces a Zero
Point Rhythm. The Life Cycle segmentation is analogous to the
phases of a Business Cycle i.e., Recovery, Prosperity, Recession
and Trough and four seasons spring, summer, fall and winter.
Mr. Lai stresses that proper timing is important for decisions
to become successful. Decisions taken during one's rising trend
channel will bring good luck while decisions taken during Zero
Point Rhythm will be disastrous. The birth date, time and place
of birth and the influence of the planets Moon, Mars, Mercury,
Jupiter, Venus and Saturn determine a person's Zero Point
Rhythm.
incorporations, the date and place of the opening of their
branch offices or plants. For Stock IPO to be successful in
their pricing strategy it is important to choose the right
offer date as well as the filing date. All entities, individuals
and corporations go through Life Cycle even within the course
of the day. Locating a particular phase of the Life Cycle even
within the course of the day is possible with Mr. Lai's
expertise in the New Divination Theory.
States, and the rest of the World are cited by the author to
buttress his Natural Theory. The Stock Market Crash of 1929,
and the deep slump of 1987 in the United States. The long
recession of Japan in the 1990's, the downturn in the economies
of Thailand, South Korea, Indonesia and Malaysia, as well as the
changing fortunes of several leading corporations including the
United States based Long Term Management, is explained in the
context of the Natural Theory Life Cycle hypothesis. In this book,
he also analyzed the Life Cycle of the leaders of nations and the
CEO's of corporations to show that negatives experienced by
individuals, firms and nations are always associated with the Zero
Point Rhythm. The Steep Decline in the New York Stock Exchange
Dow Jones Industrial Average and NASDAQ Composite Index during
the month of April 2000 was also predicted by Mr. Lai.
factors in their personal decisions making. They would find
support in Mr. Lai's claims. Presumably more people will be
convinced about the efficacy of Mr. Lai's theory after reading
his book. Mr. Lai will be happy to help those who seek his Life
Cycle astrological advises. The New York Times (Sunday, January
2, 2000. Section 14 - The City) in profiling Mr. Lai has made
reference to his use of computers in what stars say about the
stock market. Thus Mr. Lai is able to combine ancient Chinese
wisdom and modern computer tools to forecast the future. However,
Mr. Lai is modest to admit that forecasting needs the use of all
three indicators i.e., Business Cycle, Stock Cycle and Life Cycle.

Global Financial Crisis - Cycle Analysis: Life Cycle - Business Cycle - Stock Cycle
Discover how Joseph Yung-Yuan Lai uses astrology to predict what lies ahead in Global Financial Crisis - Cycle Analysis: Life Cycle - Business Cycle - Stock Cycle
FLUSHING, NEW YORK – Global Financial Crisis-Cycle Analysis: Life Cycle-Business Cycle-Stock Cycle by Joseph Yung-Yuan Lai foretells financial and personal matters by using the ancient wisdom of astrological cycles.
Can ancient wisdom be used to solve modern problems? Astrologer and consultant Joseph Yung-Yuan Lai thinks so. Our planet has weather cycles, but our lives have cycles, too, showing us optimum times for romance, changing jobs or making important decisions. Business, too, has seasons of prosperity, recovery, recession and drought. Joseph Yung-Yuan Lai calls this the Natural Theory—and suggests that life cycles, business cycles, economic cycles and stock cycles shape our lives, and are key factors to success.
Fortunes run in cycles of twelve years, believes Yung-Yuan Lai, with their own seasons of growth, fruition, harvest and dormancy. He painstakingly explains economic events around the globe, introducing readers to a new astrological theory that could benefit individuals as much as it could help corporations. While conventional economic models can guide our decisions, these models are only accurate for a short run. Joseph Yung-Yuan Lai’s innovative new method has long lasting effects. Using Chinese Lunar Astrology, Western solar astrology, and his own intuition, Joseph Yung-Yuan Lai has created a forecast system to help readers in all walks of life.
Predicting the stock market and planning your life, says Joseph Yung-Yuan Lai, isn’t just wishing on stars—it’s examining them with an eye to the best cycle for the best action.

NATURAL THEORY: Life Cycle & Stock Cycle
Natural Theory - Life Cycle such as four seasons: spring, summer, fall and winter. Just like as there are business cycle in business and economy- Recovery, Prosperity, Recession, and Trough. Cycle of time are old as ancient history and as new as today such as the sunrise every morning and sunset every night - sunrise, noon, sunset, and midnight. That is one day everyday repeated and repeated forever and a day.
While you are at the bottom of your cycle of bad luck - It means your winter season of life so called "ZERO POINT" - DON'T ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE MISLEADING by those who MAKE BIG PROMISES and DELIVER A BIG ZERO. Please keep in mind, Millions Times ZERO (9,999,999 X 0 = 0) the answer is ZERO. There is no use struggling to go up, for you will merely bog down deeper. At such moments, it would be much better to stay just where you are. Rush action aren't likely to give you the results you'd likes, PLEASE KEEPING IN MIND SLOWLY BUT SURELY.
Try to find moments where you can be truly alone so you can recharge your battery. Wait with as much patience as you can, until the time to emphasize your power in an upward trend on the way to change of your bad luck to good luck.
The PROBLEMS: How to know that the timing of the upward trend? WHEN?
The SOLUTIONS: The New Divination - Natural Theory- Life Cycle will inform you everything, your good luck is forthcoming, and help you immediately in making up your mind.
As there are Business Cycle in the field of Business and Economy - Recovery, Prosperity, Recession and Trough, as well as Typical Stock Market Cycle - Buy Point (Rising Trend), Peak, Sell Point (Flat Trend), Declining Trend, and Trough.
Life Cycle based on Company Incorporated, birth date of CEO, Chairman, President, and Vice President. Stock IPO stock offered date, the timing of business date, in all have its own Life Cycle and Business Cycle such as: spring, summer, fall and winter, its exactly as the same as Business Cycle as well as Typical Stock Market Cycle.
Life Cycle - For 12-year Time Cycles have 3 years in ZERO POINT Rhythms, and every year in 12-month Time Cycles have 3 months ZERO POINT Rhythms, too. But, everyone is not the same years and months in ZERO POINT Rhythms, it based on your birthday and its influence by the star of Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn. Everyone is subject to a cycle of Good Luck and Bad Luck, which controlled by a variety of forces in the Universe.
Life Cycle of luck present some general patterns. Especially, there are 1-month cycle, 3-month cycle, 1-year cycle, 3-year cycle, 5-year cycle, 10-year cycle, 12-year cycle, and 60-year cycles.
Good Luck and Bad Luck comes around to all of us, Up rising and Down falling in a cycle, this is a Life Cycle for everyone as well as sunrise and sunset.
Life Cycle - Business Cycle & Stock Cycle for Corporation
For a corporation has been formed, the company's Life Cycle based on incorporated date. The company's Life Cycle, it is as well as Business Cycle, and Stock Cycle. There are another way to determine for a company's Life Cycle that is not only legally incorporated, but also when company's grand opening for business. Please keep in mind, the company used timing both of that factors would be considered.
Incorporation dates are always changing, when larger companies are gobbling up smaller ones in mergers; there will be changes in incorporation dates and Life Cycle - Business Cycle - Stock Cycle.
Several large companies have branch offices throughout the nation and the world. The original incorporation date of the Head Office is always used, but it is also very important for the date, time and place of the opening date of the branch office. There is branch office's own Life Cycle, too.
The company is the symbol for the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Chairman or President of the company, so it's very important to examine the date, time and place of birth of the CEO, Chairman and President for its own Life Cycle. As you learned The Life Cycle, as well as Business Cycle, and Stock Cycles is THE BEST METHOD to PREDICTION the company's healthy (gains) or sickness (losses).

F O R E W O R D
Mr. Joseph Yung-Yuan Lai has written a fascinating book "Global & Asian Financial Crisis - Cycle Analysis - Life Cycle - Business Cycle - Stock Cycle" explaining economic events around the globe. He has a firm grasp of the workings of both market economies as well as quasi-authoritarian economies of Asia. He is extremely familiar with details about the operation of the securities market in the United States. He is in addition, well versed in Eastern and Western Astrology. In this book, Mr. Lai introduces us to a new astrological theory that could help to divine the future, a benefit both for individuals as well as for corporations. It is natural for many entities to have an interest in the forecast of the outcomes of their actions, be it in the area of investment, corporate mergers, to introduction of new products and in such personal affairs as job search, choosing the right stocks in the market and marriage. There exists a plethora of economic models that are designed to guide in one's planning process. Mr. Lai's contention is that while economic models are reasonably accurate in the very short run, their usefulness is limited beyond a period of a month. He cites the failure of forecasters and economists to predict the recession of 1990-91 and the Asian financial crisis of 1997-1998. Mr. Lai has created a new astrological theory called, the New Divination- Natural Theory - Life Cycle is based upon his intuition, ancient Chinese Astrology is based on the lunar system and Western Astrology based on the solar system.
The Natural Theory - Life Cycle can be used to determine the best timing for each individual to undertake important personal decisions such as marriage, switching jobs and investment in stocks. Mr. Lai divides Life Cycle into four segments: As Rising Trend Channel, Flat Trend Channel, Declining Trend Channel, and Zero Point Rhythm. These patterns of Life Cycle vary from sixty years, twelve years, three years, one-year, three months and one-month cycle. In each cycle one fourth of the time i.e., three months in a one-year cycle, an individual faces a Zero Point Rhythm. The Life Cycle segmentation is analogous to the phases of a Business Cycle i.e., Recovery, Prosperity, Recession and Trough and four seasons spring, summer, fall and winter. Mr. Lai stresses that proper timing is important for decisions to become successful. Decisions taken during one's rising trend channel will bring good luck while decisions taken during Zero Point Rhythm will be disastrous. The birth date, time and place of birth and the influence of the planets Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn determine a person's Zero Point Rhythm.
The Zero Point Rhythm of corporations depends on the date of incorporations, the date and place of the opening of their branch offices or plants. For Stock IPO to be successful in their pricing strategy it is important to choose the right offer date as well as the filing date. All entities, individuals and corporations go through Life Cycle even within the course of the day. Locating a particular phase of the Life Cycle even within the course of the day is possible with Mr. Lai's expertise in the New Divination Theory.
Numerous economic events of the past, both relating to the United States, and the rest of the World are cited by the author to buttress his Natural Theory. The Stock Market Crash of 1929, and the deep slump of 1987 in the United States. The long recession of Japan in the 1990's, the downturn in the economies of Thailand, South Korea, Indonesia and Malaysia, as well as the changing fortunes of several leading corporations including the United States based Long Term Management, is explained in the context of the Natural Theory Life Cycle hypothesis. In this book, he also analyzed the Life Cycle of the leaders of nations and the CEO's of corporations to show that negatives experienced by individuals, firms and nations are always associated with the Zero Point Rhythm. The Steep Decline in the New York Stock Exchange Dow Jones Industrial Average and NASDAQ Composite Index during the month of April 2000 was also predicted by Mr. Lai.
There are many who are comfortable in the use of astrological factors in their personal decisions making. They would find support in Mr. Lai's claims. Presumably more people will be convinced about the efficacy of Mr. Lai's theory after reading his book. Mr. Lai will be happy to help those who seek his Life Cycle astrological advises. The New York Times (Sunday, January 2, 2000. Section 14 - The City) in profiling Mr. Lai has made reference to his use of computers in what stars say about the stock market. Thus Mr. Lai is able to combine ancient Chinese wisdom and modern computer tools to forecast the future. However, Mr. Lai is modest to admit that forecasting needs the use of all three indicators i.e., Business Cycle, Stock Cycle and Life Cycle.
