Considering Dumping Stocks? Why You Should Reconsider / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

By: DailyGainsLetter

George Leong writes: I’m starting to receive more questions regarding the state of the stock market and whether it’s simply a bout of profit-taking or the set-up of a deeper stock market correction.

First of all, panicking is not what you want to do. Yes, we are seeing some selling surfacing, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you should go and dump stocks.

A Dovish Fed Feeds the Stock Market Rally / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

By: PhilStockWorld

The interim rally that began yesterday picked up steam today, assisted by 2 PM FOMC minutes, which the market saw as accommodative in removing “outdated” the 6.5 percent unemployment target for raising interest rates. The S&P 500 opened higher and traded up to a narrow mid-day range prior to release of the Fed minutes. Promptly at 2 PM the index roared higher and overcame a bit of 3 PM selling with a second advance. It closed with a 1.09% gain for the day, just fractionally off its 1.11% intraday high.

Stock Market Bears Let It Slip Away.....Again...For Now.... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

By: Jack_Steiman

It's the same old story folks. The bears bring the market indexes down to critical support zones. All they need is a gap down. Just one nasty gap down to put the final nail in the coffin. You can forget about that. Instead of gap downs we get gap ups. The bulls, where they have to, gap it up and send the bears back into hibernation. I know it makes absolutely no sense with how nasty those daily, weekly, and monthly charts look, but you can't fight the Fed, who, once again, reassured the market with the Fed minutes report that all is well. Ms. Yellen said she will be there to make sure the bull market continues with low rates. Once the Fed minutes came out, a good day for the bulls turned into a great day for them as the market doubled its gains into the close.

The Stock Market and Dow Theory / Stock-Markets / Dow Theory

By: Tim_Wood

I have recently received a number of e-mails, phone calls and texts asking if we have recently seen a “Dow Theory Buy Signal.”  As I understand it, this question was prompted as a result of the Industrials and the Transports having moved to new intraday highs last week.  I want to explain each and every issue with this alleged “Dow Theory Buy Signal.” Then, I will walk you through the Dow Theory events that have followed in the wake of the 2009 low and where we are now in accordance with Dow Theory.

Stock Market Three-Day Selloff Ends / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

By: PhilStockWorld

Today the S&P 500 snapped a three-day losing streak with a modest gain. The bounce was largely driven by a reversal in the recent plunge in Tech stocks, with IYW (the iShares Tech ETF) up 0.99%. The 500 opened fractionally higher and then sold off to its -0.41% intraday low. It then recovered to a relatively narrow trading range from the late morning to its 0.38% advance at the closing bell, which was off its 0.54% mid-day high.

Dow Stock Market Double Top - Fib or Fact? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

Final Bubble Phase for the Stock Market: Final Capitulation for Gold / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2014

By: Toby_Connor

After two hard days down in the stock market I'm going to take a contrary position and say that this is just a normal profit taking event and that stocks are going to recover and head back up to new highs. I still think this market needs to have a final blow off bubble phase before the bull can die. The final bubble phase for stocks should usher in the final capitulation stage of gold's 2 1/2 year bear market. For those like SMT subscribers that are sitting in cash, this final capitulation is going to represent one of the greatest buying opportunities of this generation.

Nikkei top and relationship with the DOW - UPDATE - DOW wave (5) top and Nikkei wave (2) top

We issued a newsletter on Feb 17th discussing the possible relationship between the Nikkei and the DOW. The newsletter included charts to illustrate this relationship and suggested that we would see a DOW top while the Nikkei completes wave (2) up. This appears to have occurred on Apr 3 2014 for the Nikkei and on Apr 4 2014 for the DOW. Some of the charts below are from the Feb 17th newsletter.

Flash Boys - Why You Need to Read Michael Lewis’ New Exposé / Stock-Markets / Resources & Reviews

By: Money_Morning

Shah Gilani writes: No doubt you’ve heard about Michael Lewis’ new book, “Flash Boys.”

And, no doubt you’ve been hearing more than ever before about the subject of Lewis’ book, High Frequency Trading (HFT).

I ran to Barnes & Noble to buy the book the second I heard about it last week. They didn’t have any copies. So, I ordered it online, which was cheaper anyway.

US Stocks Down, JPY Up After NFP / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

By: Gregor_Horvat

Morning traders! I hope that you had a great and relaxing weekend as markets can be very interesting in this week after strong sell-off on US stocks on Friday, after the US jobs report. We see markets in risk-off mode, but interesting that, despite a strong move down on stocks USD did not move much to the upside. We have seen a strong upward reaction on US Notes and German Bund market while stocks were falling which was ideal for lower {{3|USD/JPY}} and Yen crosses.

Everyone's talking about Michael Lewis' latest book Flash Boys and HFT (high-frequency trading) and whether the markets are rigged.

What they're not talking about is how the markets have been set up for institutionalized rigging.

Current Jakarta Composite Stock Index Index Run Up Sustainable? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

By: Sam_Chee_Kong

The recent run-up of the Jakarta Composite Index has nothing to do with improving fundamentals in the Indonesian economy but more towards an election play. For all is known, the Indonesian economy is far from out of the woods. Although recently the Indonesian economy managed to record trade surpluses, it is mainly due to the rise in exports. Exports are brought forward from the mining sector as a result of an anticipated ban on mineral exports after Jan 12, 2014.  Moreover the sudden surge in the economic activity for the past few months has mainly due to the increased public spending geared towards the run up of the elections. Whatever it is, the Indonesian economy is still very weak and will have problem maintaining the momentum as soon as the elections ends next week.

Are Leading Stock Market Indexes Turning Bearish? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

By: Andre_Gratian

Current Position of the Market

SPX: Very Long-term trend - The very-long-term cycles are in their down phases, and if they make their lows when expected (after this bull market is over), there will be another steep decline into late 2014. However, the Fed policy of keeping interest rates low has severely curtailed the full downward pressure potential of the 40-yr and 120-yr cycles.

Intermediate trend - Failed to overcome resistance at the high.

Stock Market Record High Precedes a 1.25% Selloff / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

By: PhilStockWorld

Courtesy of Doug Short: Friday morning’s much anticipated March employment report delivered no surprises. The S&P 500 rallied at the opening bell and hit its all-time high a minute later. The index traded sideways for the next hour and then began a steady selloff to its -1.35% mid-afternoon low. At the closing bell the index had trimmed its loss to -1.25%, its fourth worst loss of the year, well off the -2.28% on February 3rd. The selling was most pronounced in tech stocks, with the NASDAQ plunging 2.60%, its second worst session in 2014 (the worst was -2.61% on February 3rd).

The Stock Market’s Annual Seasonality is a Real Concern This Year / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

By: Sy_Harding

As we move into April, it’s important to look at the stock market’s long history of making most of its gains each year in a favorable ‘season’ of November to April, while most of its corrections and bear market down-legs take place in an unfavorable season from May to October.

Many academic studies and investment strategies going back to the 1970’s have confirmed the pattern, long referred to as ‘Sell in May and Go Away’.

Stock Markets Bubbles and Parabolic Slope Theory / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

By: Dan_Stinson

Parabolic Slope Theory


There has been extensive discussion questioning the current rally and if it has reached bubble status. Firstly, what is a bubble from a technical standpoint? A bubble is a parabolic advance in a market or stock where the price appears to move straight up without normal corrections. The corrections or pullbacks are small, sending the stock or index straight up. Greed and euphoria are high and complacency is low. The higher the market or stock moves, the bigger the bubble and the more pain on the way back down.

Time to Ditch Stock Market Swinging Cyclicals? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2014

By: InvestmentContrarian

George Leong writes: The stock market appears to be getting somewhat top-heavy. Scanning through my screens, I am quite amazed to find that the majority of S&P 500 stocks are well above their respective 200-day moving averages, which makes opportunities much more difficult to come by for the average investor who might look at their portfolio once a week or month.

But the buying in the stock market has still largely been with the technology, growth, and small-cap stocks, due to the higher potential to make quick money versus investing in blue chips or industrial companies.

I Can’t Believe The Government Wants To Unleash This On The Public / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2014

By: Money_Morning

Shah Gilani writes: Do you know Ally Financial Inc.?

You’ve no doubt seen their commercials. They used to be all over the tube hawking their high-yielding certificates of deposit. Now they’re all over the tube with their “no hidden fees” campaign.

I like the one where the woman is afraid to try new things because she’s had bad experiences before. Her mechanical dog sparks a fire when he drinks water and her trainer hooks her up to electrodes that zap her. I like these commercials; they’re funny. But Ally isn’t funny.
