GE Unfinished on Upside / Companies / Company Chart Analysis
By: Mike_Paulenoff
My medium-term work argues that General Electric (NYSE: GE) has unfinished business on the upside to at least 17 and perhaps to 19 in the upcoming hours/days. In addition, my near-term pattern work identifies Nov 4 as a powerful cycle turn (up), which if accurate means that the upmove from 14.15 to last week’s high at 16.29 likely completed the first upleg in a new bull leg, with the Dubai Shock representing a correction of the initial upleg.

General Electric (GE) In New Upleg / Companies / Company Chart Analysis
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Based on my pattern, cycle and RSI analysis, General Electric (NYSE: GE) appears poised to enter a new upleg that should propel the stock to 16.80-17.00 next and possibly to new recovery highs above 18.00. In particular, the pattern carved out since the Nov 4 low at 14.15 has the right look of the initial upmove of a new upleg followed by a sideways rest-digestion period (11/16-11/24), followed by today’s upside pivot off of 15.92.

Why the New York Times Is Going Broke / Companies / Mainstream Media
By: Eric_Englund
As The New York Times Company’s independent registered public accountant, you – Ernst & Young, LLP – undoubtedly are conscious of the grossly negligent financial management exercised by The New York Times Company’s top executives during this decade. As I conveyed in an essay written earlier this year: "Since 2000, The New York Times Company has generated a respectable cumulative net income of $1,598,062,000. Yet management, over the same period, has paid out $2,779,601,000 for stock buybacks and dividends.

The New World Of Investing SPDR KBW Regional Banking KRE ETF / Companies / Exchange Traded Funds
By: Guy_Lerner
In this new era where fundamentals seem to matter less and less, here is an ETF that seems to fit right in with that theme. It is the SPDR KBW Regional Banking (symbol: KRE) ETF.
It isn't lost on me that the local or Main Street economy is in the toilet. All I need to do is drive down the nearby 4 lane road with all the malls and strip centers to know that "things" aren't that good, and they are unlikely to improve any time soon. After all, how many tortilla restaurants and nail shops can one locale support? Who is going to fill all those empty stores?

Correction in Progress for Ford / Companies / Company Chart Analysis
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Those who have watched my work for a while know that I find channel analysis very useful (along with Bollinger Bands in many instances). For me, it is no coincidence that Ford (NYSE: F) hit the upper channel line at around 9.05 and then accelerated 1% above the upper line, which happens to be 9.14, after which the price structure reversed and declined back into the confines of the channel.
