Three Ways to Profit as China Dumps Japanese Debt By Keith Fitz-Gerald, Chief Investment Strategist, Money Morning As a veteran trader, I have a tendency to look past the day's top headlines. That's why a recent Bloomberg News story - which stated that China sold a net total of 769.2 billion yen ($9.24 billion) worth of Japanese debt in September - really caught my eye. By itself, this story probably wouldn't be a big deal. But this development is the start of an important new trend in the global currency markets. And the following three factors tell me that we should be taking a close look at why China has decided to dump Japanese debt. For instance: Given that the same thing happened in August, September marked the second straight month Beijing has sold more Japanese securities than it purchased. This marks the reversal of a seventh-month stretch of China being a net purchaser of Japanese debt. The two months of sales nearly wiped out the net surplus of 2.32 trillion yen ($27.86 billion) that China had amassed as a result of seven months of buying Japanese debt.

In short, Code SR-417 forces many Fortune 100 companies - including names you'll find right in your cupboard - to fork over billions in profits to a handful of upstart businesses. Early investors in their stock could see $500 soar to $69,445... or $5,000 to well over half a million dollars. Bloomberg reports "there is a tremendous amount of profit to be had." Thanks to Government Code SR-417 you could get rich, too. Full report here. Verizon iPhone On the Way - But Not Before Christmas By Don Miller, Associate Editor, Money Morning Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL) will escalate the war for smartphone dominance in early 2011 by releasing a new version of its iPhone to run on the popular Verizon Wireless (NYSE: VZ) network, the biggest U.S. carrier by subscribers. However, the phone won't make it out in time for the Christmas season, as many had hoped. Apple will be ramping up to mass produce the new touchscreen handset by the end of 2010 and release it in the first quarter of 2011, people familiar with the matter told The Wall Street Journal. While the phone would be similar to the iPhone 4 sold by its current carrier, AT&T (NYSE: T), it would be based on an alternative wireless technology used by Verizon, the people said.
