"Bad Bank" Does Not Trump "Bad" Stocks Bear Market / Stock-Markets / Government Intervention

By: Chris_Ciovacco

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleA "bad bank" does have some positive elements and in the long run could help both the economy and the financial markets. This morning's futures tell me people are focusing on the positives many of which are significant and real. However, when managing risk, especially in a bear market, it pays to play devil's advocate. For investors rushing to buy SPY (S&P 500 ETF), DIA (Dow 30), QQQQ (NASDAQ), or XLF (Financials), it may pay to temper your enthusiasm a little.

Stock Market Key Overhead Resistance Gives Way in Bullish Session / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets

By: Harry_Boxer

The indices had a fantastic bullish session as pre-market futures were sharply higher based on the government news about bank corporations that absorb bad debt. In any case, the indices opened sharply higher, backed and filled for the first 45 minutes or so, and then started a strong advance that lasted all morning into mid-afternoon, reaching as high as 1245 the Nasdaq 100, at that point up nearly 32 points. The S&P 500 spiked up near 878, up 31 points. They did have a sharp setback in the last 1 1/2 hours, but in the last 30 minutes took back most of those losses.

Nasdaq Q's Continue to Act Well / Stock-Markets / Tech Stocks

By: Mike_Paulenoff

The Q's (NASDAQ: QQQQ) continue to act well and are right at their highs for today's thrust from a two-week base pattern. My next near-term target is 30.20/50, the lower portion of which already has been met. My higher target of 30.80 to 31.25 coincides with confrontation with the Nov-Jan resistance line, now at 30.80. The resistance line at 30.80 up to 31.25 should put a lid on any "euphoric" reaction to the FOMC statement released at 2:15 pm ET. Conversely, at this juncture only a decline that breaks 29.70 will begin to compromise the still-constructive near-term pattern in the Qs.

Stock, Commodities, Futures and Forex Markets Analysis 28th January 2009 / Stock-Markets / Futures Trading

By: INO

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe March NASDAQ 100 was higher overnight and is trading above resistance marked by the 20- day moving average crossing at 1205.62. Stochastics and the RSI are turning bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near-term. Closes above the 20-day moving average crossing at 1205.62 would confirm that a short-term low has been posted while opening the door for additional gains near-term. If March renews this month's decline, the reaction low crossing at 1097.00 is the next downside target.

Stock Market Up Again Despite Grim Economic Data / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: PaddyPowerTrader

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleStubborn stocks ground out a few more hard yards in the face of more grim economic news. They drew some cheer from better than expected results from American Express (albeit still very weak). That the market can drag itself higher in the face of the current headwinds (job losses, poor earnings and guidance and dire real economy data) reinforces the importance of expectations and the significant pessimism currently built into market pricing.

Stock Market Quiet Pre-FOMC Trading Session / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets

By: Harry_Boxer

The indices had what we expected, a non-volatile and somewhat quiet pre-FOMC session, although gains were had at the end. The day started out with a move up. They backed off, held intraday price and moving average support, and went to new session highs, testing yesterday's rally highs on both indices, but fell short, and then backed off mid-afternoon to retest the rising 3-day trendlines, which held again. Then they moved back to once again retest the highs, but they were not able to punch through, as resistance was futile today and they backed off into the close.

Stock Markets to Bounce Or Not to Bounce– That Is The Question / Stock-Markets / Investing 2009

By: Captain_Hook

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleLike the others , it appears what was formerly reliable sentiment related analysis associated with the study of open interest put / call ratios has now succumb to an increasingly mature market(s) condition. Of course, technically, such a conclusion could be viewed as incorrect in that the reason stocks did not go up this week was not because of selling, but because of a buyers strike. This is why in spite of such devastatingly bad news associated with the economy, and there was a multitude of it this week, stocks did not fall more. It should be noted this has caught the attention of a great many market participants, which is the dynamic that will eventually set up the next round of ‘unwarranted complacency' we expect to grip investor psychology in spring, allowing for far stepper losses in stocks than is being witnessed at present.

Interview With the Kress Stock Market Cycle Master, Part2 / Stock-Markets / Cycles Analysis

By: Clif_Droke

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleI have long been an admirer of the stock market cycle analysis of one Samuel J. “Bud” Kress, proprietor of SJK Capital and publisher of the cycle-based SineScope advisory. During my 10 year acquaintance with Mr. Kress, I’ve been privileged to learn of his discovery of a remarkable series of weekly and yearly cycles. These cycles (Kress Cycles as I’ve taken to calling them) have an amazing correlation to each other and are based on the Fibonacci sequence. More importantly, they have accurately identified the major turning points in the financial markets and the economy over the last several years. The Kress Cycles are predicting a major period of change ahead for the U.S. stock market and economy, particularly between the years 2010-2014.

Financial Crisis, Consequences and Investment Opportunities / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2009

By: Money_and_Markets

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleSharon A. Daniels writes: It has been said that the Chinese alphabet uses the same character to represent both the words ‘crisis' AND ‘opportunity.' While this isn't exactly correct in a literal translation of Mandarin — the meaning comes close enough.

Financial markets are a lot like this too. We have all heard: “for every buyer, there's a seller.” In other words, one investor's panic can also be considered another's profit opportunity.

Stock, Commodities, Futures and Forex Markets Analysis 27th January 2009 / Stock-Markets / Futures Trading

By: INO

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe March NASDAQ 100 was steady to slightly higher overnight as it extends last week's trading range above the 50% retracement level of the November-January rally crossing at 1154.62. Stochastics and the RSI remain neutral signaling that sideways trading is still possible near-term. If March renews this month's decline, the reaction low crossing at 1097.00 is the next downside target. Closes above the 20-day moving average crossing at 1203.48 would confirm that a short- term low has been posted. First resistance is the 20-day moving average crossing at 1203.48. Second resistance is the reaction high crossing at 1222.25. First support is last Tuesday's low crossing at 1132.00. Second support is the 62% retracement level of the November-January rally crossing at 1123.08.

China’s “Chuppies” Point the Way to Stock Market Investing Growth and Profits / Stock-Markets / Chinese Stock Market

By: Money_Morning

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleKeith Fitz-Gerald writes: Despite what you might be hearing about a global recession, consumer capitalism is alive and well in China. And it's still fueling growth.

Take a stroll through Beijing's trendy Wangfujing area, a quick walk south of Tiananmen Square or the six-story Shin Kong Place in Beijing's Dawanglu area, and you'll find more than 100 top international designer brands on sale, including Prada , Gucci , Bvlgari , Dolce & Gabbana , and others. While you're on the prowl, don't forget Xidan Market , which the locals prefer. It's also bursting at the seams from countless stores, fashionable-clothing shops and, of course, the ubiquitous and ever-present Starbucks ( SBUX ).

Stock Markets Begin Week With Tentative Gain / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: PaddyPowerTrader

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleOn a very back day for US employment, there was 71,400 job cuts announced. Still equity indices managed to eek out some meagre gains with the blockbuster Pfizer/Wyeth merger, a bullish statement from Barclays, solid earnings from the ever dependable McDonalds and better than expected existing home sales numbers bringing some relief. So a day when investors chose to see the glass as half full. I remain highly sceptical, particularly of tech stocks .

Dow Jones Industrial Averages Index Price Anomaly / Stock-Markets / Market Manipulation

By: David_Urban

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleOver the last week, a number of articles were written about the distortions in the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA). Because of the collapse of the financial sector the DJIA, a price-weighted index, has become distorted. In a price-weighted index, each stock price is divided by a divisor to determine its price makeup within the index. Normally this is not a major problem but as of the closing bell on Monday, January 26th, four stocks trade below $10 per share and nine stocks trade below $20 per share. This interesting anomaly deserves a closer look.

Stock Market Narrow Gains to Start the Week / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets

By: Harry_Boxer

The indices ended with a plus day to start the week, which was different than we've seen of late. Today the indices started out strongly and within an hour were at the session highs and secondary key formidable resistance near the 1200-02 zone on the Nasdaq 100 and the 850-55 zone on the S&P 500. They failed to break through, backed off and backed and filled in what looked like orderly and potentially bullish consolidation patterns, in anticipation of a late morning or afternoon rally try, but when that did not materialize, they rolled over rather hard by mid-day. After lunch they clawed their way back to secondary resistance but failed and rolled back into the close and bounced.

Financial Markets Action / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: Paul_J_Nolte

The market action over the past few weeks is presenting more questions than answers. First, the new administration is ready to unveil yet another bank bailout package as well as consumer relief designed to cut some taxes, provide some rebates and attempt to provide long-term economic benefit. Earnings season is in full swing, with the usual financial mess – however some bright spots in a variety of industries.

Stock Market Update, Gold Break-Out and T-Bills Bubble Popping? / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2009

By: Daniel_Smolski

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleJust a few days into the administration and we are already starting to see cracks in the walls. Rumors have been surfacing Obama's much heralded stimulus package will not pass in congress as many republicans, including John McCain promise to be “faithful opposition party members.” The opposition is unfortunately not against the spending but rather, against not enough spending. There are demands to make Bush's tax cuts permanent while democrats instead want to shift the tax burden onto the “rich.” It was expected that Obama will enter politics with so much tailwind behind him, that he would be able to pass any bill in the first months in office.

Revealed: The Holy Grail of Stem Cell Research / Stock-Markets / Investing 2009

By: Q1_Publishing

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleLast November, while the markets were cratering, we encouraged Prosperity Dispatch readers to take a step back from the doom and gloomers and look at what is really going on in the world. We were looking for opportunity in the carnage. When looking at the world, the aging demographics, and where most of the world's R&D spending is going, we naturally turned to stem cells. The opportunity here is tremendous. It's like buying oil in the late 90's or tech stocks in the early 90's. Sure, you won't get rich quick, but this one of the best spots to get really rich slowly.
