Stock Market Opens with Big Bang on a Gap / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Harry_Boxer
It was turn-around Tuesday for the stock market as the indices roared from the get-go with breakaway gaps, strong morning moves, and then climbed upward all day on the Nasdaq 100. The S&P 500 took a little afternoon rest, held support, and then came on late. In the last 30-40 minutes they pulled back a little bit to peel off from the highs, but it was a stellar session.
Net on the day, the Dow was up 213.12 at 17,706.05, 35-6 points off the high. The S&P 500 was up 28.02 at 2076.06, 3 points off its high. The Nasdaq 100 was up 89.20 at 4444.30, 5 points off its high.

Death Crosses Across The Board Are IRREFUTABLE Stock Market Sell Signals / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: I_M_Vronsky
A recent insightful and timely article by internationally known analyst Graham Summers galvanized my attention. Graham’s focus was using Weekly Charts to demonstrate the accurate forecasts of Bear Markets in the US. His stock sell signal is based upon the Death Cross definition where the 50-week moving average falls below the 100-week moving average. Summers’s astute analysis speaks for itself:

Stock Market Trading Between The 20's And 200's... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Jack_Steiman
For fourteen of the past fifteen days the S&P 500 has been trading between the 20- and 200-day exponential moving averages. Neither side has been able to take control. Boring beyond words. Day after day we move basically nowhere. The volatility is gone for now. I have no idea what catalyst will come along to allow for a breakout, but you don't know if you can even trust when the move occurs. The 20-day is at 2059. The 200-day is at 2024. When one breaks we should expect a directional move. It should, but who knows for sure. This market has opposing forces working. The bulls have the Yellen. Low rates are here to stay. Yes, we'll see a rate hike in June, but she won't be promising anything aggressive after that as the global economic environment is not good. Rates will still be very low after the June hike, so big money won't likely be running out.

Stock Market Crash Death Cross Doom Prevails / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Nadeem_Walayat
We appear to be at one of those stock market times of the year when cognitive dissonance prevails, for one does not need to look far to see the building mood for imminent doom that apparently has been imminent all year! Nevertheless, it appears to be reaching a new fever pitch of intensity with the focus now on the apocalyptic sounding DEATH CROSS ! Which depending on the analyst has occurred from twice to more than a dozen times this century for the fundamental fact that the Death Cross just like much of Technical Analysis is just a back fitting exercise, i.e. tweak the parameters used so as to fit a pattern with the benefit of hindsight so as to support ones pre-existing opinion.

No Stocks Bear Market / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Gary_Savage
If you try hard enough you can always find a set of moving averages that will confirm your bias. The 50/100 week exponential moving average cross has never generated a false signal in 36 years. It’s confirming what I’ve been saying all along. No bear market.

Third Death Cross of the Century Pointing to Stock Market Carnage - Video / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Mario_Innecco
Sunday May 22nd 2016 short video and technical analysis I know people think
technical analysis doesn't work I have always been close follow-up technical
analysis course is on technical announces but I and I also like the
fundamentals I think it's important to follow boat but it's really important
that I come out with this because we've had a death cross on the weekly chart of
the S&P 500 also handed out but I'm going to focus on the S&P 500 because
that's the broader market and moving averages basically confirmed tops or
bottoms so they happened after the top and this makes sense because we had that
top stock market last year and fifty weekend hundred week is very long-term...

Stock Market Laterally Painful... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Jack_Steiman
Writing this newsletter is getting harder and harder these days as the market is incapable of moving sustainably in one direction. Just when it seems one side has control that control gets taken away. You get perfect action from the bulls. They break up through resistance only to have things reverse the very next day. The bears start to make a move for themselves. Just yesterday we tested below 2040 horizontal support, and then tested almost to the point at 2023 (2025 print), which is the 200-day exponential moving average.

Stock Market Rally At the End of the Road? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Chris_Vermeulen
In May of 2008, there was a very similar stock market ‘rally’ as compared to today’s ‘rally’. Investors believed that the ‘turmoil’ during the latter part of 2007 and the early part of 2008 was permanently over and that we were headed towards a strong economic growth!
In actuality, it merely masked the ‘declining economic collapse’. The same situation is happening, all over again, even as you are reading this article. There are numerous flashing red lights, currently while the stock markets is ‘collapsing’ once again, just as it did during the beginning of the spring of 2008!

Yellen’s Talk of Interest Rate Hike Causes Stock Market Plunge / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Harry_Boxer
The stock market indices had a really volatile and interesting day today due to the FOMC. The day started out with a very nice run up in a 3-wave, corrective-type move, reaching resistance midday just before the FOMC. When that occur, and indications of a probable or potential raise in rates in June, it took the market back form 4362 down to 4305, a big, 57-point drop. The S&P 500 dropped from 2060 to 2035, 25 points. They backed and filled in a right-handed, extended-V bottom to finish positive, and get the blue chips back down near flat.

Fed Shocks The Stock Market... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Jack_Steiman
The fed minutes were announced today at 2 PM ET. The market was expecting the minutes to say that things aren't that good economically, and that the prospect was for continued low rates. SURPRISE!!!! The minutes said that Ms Yellen would hike if the data improved in Q2. While that's not very likely, it is interesting that she talked about raising rates in June. She's so far behind of the curve that maybe she's getting anxious about keeping rates too low. Maybe she's preparing the market for the inevitable. It has to happen some year. Maybe this year will be that year, although I wouldn't hold my breath. That said it does seem she wants to hike and maybe the market is simply picking up on that. That it doesn't matter if the economy doesn't recover.

Stock Market Trendline Broken on Fed Announcement / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
SPX has now broken its Head & Shoulders neckline and has bounced from its 2-hour Cycle Bottom. A rally above today’s earlier high at 2060.61 implies that it may continue back to the 4.5-year trendline. That doesn’t appear to be the case, but I am just cautioning. On the other hand, a drop below 2034.49 may open the trap door for a panic decline to the Head & Shoulders target of 1967.85, at a minimum.

SPX Bounces off the Neckline / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
SPX bounced almost precisely at the Head & Shoulders neckline at 2040.00, after having complete another impulsive decline. It appears to have attempted a 50% retracement of that decline at 2055.00 thus far. The bounce may have relieved the oversold condition enough to attempt another decline, but the bear market doesn’t gain strength until 2040.00 is broken.
