Stock Market Back-and-Fill Session Has Disappointing Close / Stock-Markets / Stock Index Trading
By: Harry_Boxer
The stock market indices ended the week on a down note, but they certainly had some volatility. Initially, the markets sold off from the opening on Friday, held support, and then bounced to new rally highs, reaching 1250 NDX and 840 SPX. But that was right at important secondary resistance. They failed to get through, and then had an orderly 5-wave decline that lasted until mid-day. Just before lunch hour the indices reached support and bounced sharply to retest the highs but fell short, pulled back again late afternoon, bounced in the last hour but again couldn't get through and in the last 5 minutes sold off quite sharply, with the NDX dropping 8 points and the S&P 500 more than 6 points.Read full article...

U.S. Stock Markets Give Major Sell Signal / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: Brian_Bloom
Two things happened today that bear thinking about:
1. The US Stock market gave a sell signal which, in my view, was not a run-of-the-mill signal. There are too many people who are “hoping” for a bounce from these levels to give me the comfort that it will bounce.

Stock Market Equilibertarianism / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets
By: Oxbury_Research
The “Let's get Mikey” Market - There used to be a television commercial for Life brand cereal that we enjoyed immensely. It's worth a brief discussion.
The ad featured a trio of brothers sitting around the breakfast table, trying to determine who was going to try a new cereal. Neither of the older brothers had the nerve to give it a go (“I ain't gonna try it; you try it.”). But the youngest, Mikey, could always be convinced. “He'll eat anything!”

Financials Lead Stocks in Mixed Session / Stock-Markets / US Stock Markets
By: Harry_Boxer
The stock market did have some volatility on Wednesday, but the indices ended narrowly mixed. The day started out with a little move up off the opening followed by a sharp turnaround lower. They spiked down and made a new low on the Nasdaq 100, but did not on the S&P 500, which resulted in a snapback rally. But the rally failed at the 2 day declining tops lines, which resulted in a much sharper afternoon slide that took the market to the lows for the day with about an hour and a half to go.Read full article...

By: Kingsley_Anderson
Make no mistake about it, this is still a bear market. It has been quite some time since the market has experienced such a violent decline. Any dreams about the rally continuing were violently doused as the market did not appreciate the comments of Mr. Geithner.Read full article... Read full article...
