In December, PFGBEST Research analysts zeroed in on key market themes for this year:

• Slow U.S. economic growth
• China fueling demand for commodities, land, natural resources
• Speculative bubbles in certain commodity prices
• Proposed regulation of U.S. financial markets changing the landscape

Now, at the 6-month check point, find out whether these themes are eclipsed by new ones.

Here’s what we forecast in December 2009:

• Aftershocks of the credit crisis would take place in the Euro zone in the first half of 2010. Some economies may tumble like dominoes; keep your eyes on Greece, Ireland and Spain to name a few.
• Themes in gold would be strength on insatiable demand and limited supply. [In Q2, gold eclipsed the previous price of spot gold, which was $1,226.56, set Dec. 3.]
• 10-year T-note cash yields will average 3.65 to 3.80% in the first half of the year, then 3.90 to 4.05 in the second half.
• There is still an abundant amount of money on the sidelines, but in stock indices, expect periods with noteworthy pullbacks, which these indicies managed to avoid for the most part in 2009.
