Stock Market Downward Pressure Increases in Sepember

Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011 Sep 12, 2011 - 03:10 AM GMT

By: Donald_W_Dony

Stock-Markets

As the S&P 500 approaches the expected low in late September, downward pressure is increasing and volatility continues to expand.
The VIX, which moves in the opposite direction to the S&P 500, has risen from a medium risk level of 24 in early August into the high risk band of over 33. At the same time, the stock index dropped from 1290 to 1120 (Chart 1).


Models indicate that the S&P 500 should develop a low near 1050-1060 at the end of this month and the VIX is expected to remain in the high risk level.

Longer term, equities are now entering their seventh week of the bear market (Chart 2). With a significant low at the end of this month and another trough in early January, the bear market is expected to continue into at least Q1.

Bottom line: Downward pressure can be expected throughout September with high levels of volatility. There is a bounce anticipated in October, however, that rise should be limited.

Investment approach: It is unknown how long this bear market will continue or how deep. The expectation is that the S&P 500 will reach the target level of 1050-1060 in late September, that is another 8% lower than at Friday's (September 9th) close.

Investors may wish to remain on the sidelines until evidence suggests a final low has developed. A better assessment of the bear market bottom may come in early January.
