Stock Market Poor Action....Still In The Range..... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Jack_Steiman
Today spoke volumes about the type of market we're in right now. It's a market that can't break out, seems to be clear to all of us now. A market that has been moving laterally is more of what we're seeing, but with today's action, we may be ready for some much deeper downside action. Let me explain.

Stock Market Boredom.....Going Nowhere..... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Jack_Steiman
It's painful mentally. We don't go anywhere. So many head fakes. There are many days, such as last Friday, that get you to thinking the breakout is upon us. There have been many days where you'd bet the house the bears are about to take over. Just think back to last Wednesday. No follow-through from either side of the coin. Both make headway, but neither can get the job done, and therefore, we continue to trade in a range with whipsaw the only word that really works to explain the markets action over the short- to medium-term.

Stock Market Short-term Top in Sight, After New High / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Andre_Gratian
SPX: Very Long-term trend - The very-long-term cycles are down and, if they make their lows when expected, there will be another steep and prolonged decline (which appears to have already started) into 2014.
SPX: Intermediate trend - The rally from 1075 has consolidated and is ready to make a new high, followed by another consolidation.

Final Stock Market Rally Before the Big Leg Down is Near End / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: David_Banister
Back on October 3rd, I penned a public article forecasting a major low in the SP 500 to occur around 1088. The SP 500 had been declining from the 1370 highs this May and was in the 1130’s and nearing its final descent in a corrective pattern. The next day, the market bottomed intra-day at 1074 and closed north of 1100. Since that time, we have rallied impressively to a high of 1292, with a strong pullback to 1215, and now what I believe is the finally rally to a major top formation.

Stock Market Important Short Term Juncture / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Tony_Caldaro
Volatile week ends mixed to lower in world equity markets. After an 18 day, 20.3%, rally from SPX 1075 to 1293 the market has spent the past eleven trading days between 1215 and 1287. Positive economic reports for the week outnumbered negative reports, for the first time in many weeks, two to one. On the downtick: wholesale inventories, import/export prices and the monetary base. On the uptick: consumer credit, the twin deficits, consumer sentiment, the M1-multiplier, the WLEI and weekly jobless claims improved. For the week the SPX/DOW were +1.15%, but the NDX/NAZ were -0.15%. Asian markets declined 2.2%, European markets gained 0.5%, and the DJ World was -0.2%. Next week we have a slew of important economic reports, and it’s Opex week.

Has the Stock Market Index Been Naughty or Nice? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: J_W_Jones
At the beginning of this week I warned readers that the market was extremely overbought and that a top could be forming. While it is still unclear whether a major top has formed, it is without question that we saw a major correction on Wednesday as yields on Italian debt caused margin requirement adjustments at the London Clearing House.

Stock Market Cup With Handles Are Everywhere / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: David_Grandey
While the news is all about Europe this and Europe that, we just look at the charts. And the charts are telling us that this might be the best time to buy stocks. Why? Because the indexes are sporting positive technical structure in tandem with many leading stocks.
But before we talk stocks, let’s talk about a simple way you can profit from the information below. If you don’t act, all of this information is meaningless.

A Democrat In the White House is Better For Stocks? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Sy_Harding
The lead-up to next year’s election will bring a lot of claims from both parties. I thought I’d check some likely ones to make sure I don’t fall into the ‘lazy trap’ of repeating popular beliefs as fact when they might not be.
I was more than mildly surprised by my research.

Stock Market Bearish Head and Shoulders Pattern / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
Yesterday’s action in the indexes left us some clues as to its probable intent as a follow-through. There appears to be a complex Head-and-Shoulders pattern developing with a neckline at 1226. Sure enough, a bounce developed in the pre-market futures, portending a retest of mid-cycle support/resistance at 1243.37 and a right shoulder which completes the pattern.

Stock Market SP 500 1,215 & 1,191 Key Support / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Chris_Ciovacco
As shown in the chart below, the S&P 500 held at a logical level on Wednesday. Even if stocks eventually break the October 4 lows, another push as high as 1,313 is possible. 1,215 is a widely watched level for the bulls, but 1,191 is also an important area of possible support.

Italy Likely Default Kills Stock Market... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Jack_Steiman
We all went to bed last night with the futures fairly flat, but when we woke up this morning, the futures were totally annihilated with the European markets crashing. Italy down over 7% as they saw their 2-year yield rise over the magic 7% mark, up .669 overnight. Once over 75, they believe that they can no longer pay their bills, folks.

Stock Market Death by 1,000 Cuts / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Neeraj_Chaudhary
With the US stock market's recent volatility, many investors may be wondering whether or not we are headed for another 2008-style crash where the market drops 30 to 40 percent within a few short weeks. Sensing that timing could be critical, many investors may be sitting on the sidelines waiting for a good entry point. But this dynamic misses that far bigger picture: Notwithstanding the bull and bear cycle over the past decade, the entire market has been slowly sinking. As a result, a well timed entry into US stocks may not be enough to deliver long term results.Read full article... Read full article...

Stock Market It's All Bad....Except It's Not..... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: Jack_Steiman
I have been around for a long time. Too long in this business, but if there's one thing I have learned more than anything else, is that you don't want to be on the side of the masses. Sure, once in a long while they get it right, but most of the time they get it wrong. I'm not just talking about the masses being the traders of this game. I am talking about the traders, writers, interviewers, and so on. It has been a long time since I've heard such gloom and doom.

Groupon Won't Help Moribund IPO Market Much / Companies / Stock Markets 2011
By: Money_Morning
David Zeiler writes:
With stock market volatility suppressing initial public offerings in recent months, many were hoping Groupon Inc.'s (Nasdaq: GRPN) splashy IPO on Friday would spark a revival.
But analyst skepticism over Groupon's long-term prospects and lingering fears over the European debt crisis, as well as the tepid U.S. economy, mean that the dry spell for the IPO market will stretch on into next year.

How to Trade This Headline Driven Stock Market / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011
By: J_W_Jones
With all eyes on the unemployment report and Europe, the CME Group’s PR Department nearly created an all out panic with their announcement after the market close on Friday relating to futures maintenance margin. The original statement was vague and I was quite concerned until I checked out the CME Group’s web-page and the PR Department sent an update clarifying their position. At this point I think the crisis has been averted, but this is just another reminder that we live in “interesting times.”
