A Democrat In the White House is Better For Stocks? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011

By: Sy_Harding

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe 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

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAs 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 Markets Now Most Vulnerable Position For Major Fall Since 2008 / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash

By: Garry_Abeshouse

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe bull trap has now been set and the rally in equities is showing definite signs of petering out with the USD as a contrary indicator since mid October, indicating strong signs of base building.
In fact as I write these words equities are falling due to the growing realisation that no solution to the European economic and financial crisis is in the offing.

UK FTSE 100 Stock Market Index Triple Play Fibonacci Analysis / Stock-Markets / UK Stock Market

By: David_Knox_Barker

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticlePrice, time and sentiment represent a three dimensional approach to technical analysis of any market or security. The Fibonacci drill-down grid method is particularly instructive at the current price juncture in the UK FTSE 100. The key to this three-dimensional method is to identify the "hot" Level 1 grid, i.e. the high and low in a Fibonacci grid that produces an extended numbers of clear turns on Level 1 and Level 2 grid lines.

Stock Market Death by 1,000 Cuts / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011

By: Neeraj_Chaudhary

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWith 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.

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.

Stocks, Bonds, Dollar Cycles Crossroad / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2011

By: Anthony_Cherniawski

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe VIX reached what appeared to be its combined Master Cycle and Primary Cycle low on October 17.  The two cycles appeared to agree and the VIX made its low at 28.08 that day. 

However, another zig zag lower appeared on October 28, corresponding with a lesser Trading Cycle low.  This extended the Master Cycle low another 13  days beyond what was normally expected and allowed the equities indexes to go beyond their usual 50-61.8% retracements.

Long-term Cycles vs. Short-term Market Potential / Stock-Markets / Cycles Analysis

By: Clif_Droke

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleA reader has asked the following question, which addresses a problem confronting many investors right now: 
 
“I always appreciate the Kress Cycle analysis. Yet, I must say that I am confused. For quite some time, you have talked about the ‘hard down’ phase and the topping of most of the important cycles that was supposed to be taking place now through 2013/2014. And yet, now it seems the [weekly] cycles are calling for a rally through the end of the year.  The Elliott Wave folks have been talking that the sky is about to fall in as well and yet there is great divergence in that camp with some still calling for that while others say that it may now have been pushed into 2012.  I keep looking for a retest of the bottoms that holds at which point I would pick up more shares, but so far, no retest has occurred.”

Soveriegn Debt Crisis, It's All Greek To Me / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2011

By: PhilStockWorld

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWe ended last week’s newsletter “Europhoria” less than europhoric, with Phil’s statement, “We take a series of BALANCED trades – SELLING as much premium as we can so that time (theta decay) is always on our side. We take our profits off the table and, when we have to, we take our losses. However, we try to adjust the losing sides of our positions with the expectation that the markets will remain in a trading range and make the occasional reversals... Our bearish expectations are based on possible Yentervention by the BOJ, negative analysis of the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) over the weekend, and LACK of additional stimulus by the US, China and Japan to match the strong but Globally inadequate EU contribution.”

How to Trade This Headline Driven Stock Market / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011

By: J_W_Jones

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWith 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.”

Debt Credit Crisis, Something Is About To Break / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2011

By: Tony_Pallotta

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWhen Dexia was nationalized I said the clock was now ticking. Counterparty risk was the new threat to the global economy. When confidence is gone the system simply shuts down. What does that mean though? How do you measure confidence or lack thereof?

Simply look at where cash is going. Recently released data shows a record jump in the foreign reverse repurchase agreement balance held at the Federal Reserve (first reported by Zero Hedge on November 3).

Stock Market Intermediate Trend Still Alive / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011

By: Andre_Gratian

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleSPX: 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 intermediate trend which started at 1075 as a proposed bear market rally is still alive. Should the strength continue for a period of time, the concept of being in a bear market will have to be re-visited.

Stock Market Bears Fight Back on the Back of US Dollar / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011

By: WavePatternTraders

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleIn last week's article you may recall that I suspected the rally from the Oct 4th lows was going to a 3 wave move, which would create a problem for the bulls and that whilst it was a strong move, being 3 waves, it still confirmed that the bounce was part of something that likely over the coming weeks should surrender itself to lower prices.

If you further recall I mentioned about the DX 76 area and the bulls needed to respect any move that saw price move back above that area.

EU Debt Crisis has Not Been Solved, Could take the Entire Financial World Down / Stock-Markets / Global Debt Crisis

By: Bob_Chapman

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleMost believe the European debt crisis is solved, but not so fast. In spite of being told by the German federal court that leverage could not be applied to bailout loans, but they approved leverage anyway. The court says they will redefine their position by the end of the year. Thus, there is no deal until the court says there is one and constitutionally it’s legal. The Bundestag must believe the court will change its mind. Now we will just have to see what transpires. In the meantime Mr. Juncker of the European Union said there would be concessions for financial aid. As a result of those disclosures early last Monday the “President’s Working Group on Financial Markets” was busy at work trying to keep the stock market indexes from crashing and viciously attacking gold and silver overnight. What else would one expect in a rigged market?

Stock Market Update Still Underway / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2011

By: Tony_Caldaro

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAfter four successive weeks of rising prices the major indices pulled back this week. The hardest hit was Europe with a 4.8% decline, Asian markets were -0.9%, and the US markets were -2.25%. On the economic front upticking and downticking reports were about even. On the upside: ADP, factory orders, the unemployment rate, the WLEI and weekly jobless claims improved. On the downside: ISM manufacturing/services, the Chicago PMI, construction spending, auto sales, the monetary base, and the payrolls report. The economy is still in contraction mode. For the week the SPX/DOW were -2.35%, and the NDX/NAZ were -1.9%. Bonds rose 1.7%, Crude gained 0.7%, Gold gained 0.7%, and the USD was +2.5%. Next week’s economic reports will be highlighted by the Trade/Budget deficits, Import/Export prices and Consumer sentiment.
