Stocks Bear Market Resumes or Just More Noise / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Tony_Caldaro

The market started this volatile week at SPX 2071. After a gap up opening on Monday to SPX 2101 the market pulled back until Wednesday when it hit SPX 2084. Another gap up opening on Thursday carried the market to SPX 2113. Then Brexit was confirmed and markets worldwide plunged on Friday. For the week the SPX/DOW were -1.6%, and the NDX/NAZ were -2.0%. Economic reports were biased negative for the first time in quite a while. On the downtick: new home sales, durable goods, consumer sentiment and the Q2 GDP estimate. On the uptick: FHFA housing, existing home sales and weekly jobless claims declined. Next week’s reports will be highlighted by Q1 GDP, PCE prices and the Chicago PMI.

Dow, Euro & Brexit Recap / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2016

By: Austin_Galt

What a day! Some extremely volatile action took place that will live on in the memories of all those that witnessed it.

So, what to make of it all?

Well, this analysis will focus on the Dow and Euro and quite frankly there is nothing out of the ordinary to report which may sound strange. Today did nothing to alter what has been outlined in previous analysis. In fact, it played right into my forecasts which are for the Dow to head down to set up a higher low and the Euro to also head further down a bit more and set up its own higher low.

But it is early days, says newsletter writer and technical analyst Clive Maund, who offers his views on the day after Brexit.

Brexit Surprise.....Will Others Follow Britain?....Still Nothing Bearish Yet... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Jack_Steiman

If you looked at the action yesterday one would have thought that Britain staying was a slam dunk. Poll after poll showed a tight race, but all of them had them staying. The market was smelling this out, and, thus, the strong action the market displayed yesterday. Funds were running to the buy button as they were afraid to miss the breakout over 2134 on the S&P 500. The market closed just one percent below that magical level that had the bulls frothing. Breadth was strong yesterday as well. Buying across the board, especially those financial stocks that were bound to explode once the vote for staying in the euro zone was completed. Sadly, and as usual, the masses were wrong. Why this reality occurs over and over again with regards to the stock market is a mystery, but the masses were clearly wrong once again.

Was Brexit a Quid Pro Quo for a Bank Bailout? - Video / Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis Bailouts

By: Mario_Innecco

Minako 64 here home of alternative economics and contrarian views
it's been a very long 24 hours I cover the brexit results all night last night
the markets were all over the place you know depending on the result in one of
the results are coming out and very interesting you know very good in my
opinion that the British people decided to leave the EU the U is an
unaccountable institution in my opinion very undemocratic and bureaucratic and
socialistic so that's good but i do have a few questions that have popped in my
mind over the last few months the first one is the fact that David Cameron before the last general election
last year he said that's a if he won he would call for a referendum on whether

A Tale Of Two Asset Classes: Gold Miners Soar, Banks Crash / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2016

By: John_Rubino

The following tables illustrate the dilemma of mainstream money management. The vast majority of legitimate financial advisors and portfolio managers are big fans of bank stocks because finance is a crucial, if not dominant, form of economic activity in the modern world. So the big names in the field — Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, JP Morgan, etc. — are generally seen as safe places to put client capital.

How Investors Are Impacted By The Central Banking Bubble / Stock-Markets / Liquidity Bubble

By: InvestingHaven

Bubbles are not new. The tulip mania, for instance, peaked some 400 years ago. Interestingly, there is one common characteristic about bubbles: that they are considered ‘normal’ during the bubble but ‘abnormal’ after their implosion.

Nowadays, it seems that the whole world has accepted zero (even negative) interest rates. Media and your friends write about negative interest rates as if that is nothing special, and people do not have make a point about it. Never in history, at least not in regular times (non-war), have interest rates been negative. Does this sound like a bubble?

E-Wave Says BIG Down in Stock Market June 24th / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Brad_Gudgeon

The chart below of the S&P 500 suggests a move down to around 2041/42 early Friday, June 24 or about 3% down from today’s high near 2107. The e-wave astro/cycle pattern also suggests a strong move back up into Tuesday, June 28 to perhaps as high as 2121/22.  By July 5th, a move into the low 1900’s is possible.

Everybody is focusing on the BREXIT, so the outcome, whatever it will be, will likely be the blame for the coming volatility. We shall soon find out. It is 12:30 CDT as I write this. I still see new highs by October 3rd.

Stock Market Waiting for the Reversal / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Anthony_Cherniawski

SPX has made a measured move, so far. The rally from the 2050.37 low has taken 34 hours. Another .4 hours would make it divisible by 4.3. you can see that the volume is low, so there is little participation or short covering.

Stock Market Fluctuates on Concerns Ahead of Brexit / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Harry_Boxer

The stock market indices had a very volatile session, first starting off with a little bit of a dip, then a strong rally to test Monday’s highs, and when they were unable to take those out they came down in a strong midday decline, but snapped back early afternoon. However, that failed to take hold, but it was just a retest. The indices then had a 5-wave decline into the close, finishing near the session lows, just bouncing right off them into the close.

Late Morning Brexit Poll Kills Earlier Stock Market Rally / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Jack_Steiman

It is normal for markets to drift higher ahead of an important news event. Hope trumps fear most of the time in this crazy game. I think it's about most folks thinking the worst case scenario won't happen. That intervention will take over right at the end and keep things status quo. It seems impossible in the minds of the masses that something terrible can actually occur since the world banks, etc are always doing something to make sure nothing all that bad takes place.

Trading BrExit - Stocks, Bonds, Sterling, Opinion Polls, Bookmaker Odds and My Forecast / Stock-Markets / Financial Crisis 2016

By: Nadeem_Walayat

The EU Referendum according to the opinion polls is too close to call as illustrated by the most recent opinion polls and resulting momentum analysis that literally puts the vote on a knife edge. However the same does not hold true for the bookmakers or financial markets that are apparently assuming that a REMAIN outcome is a done deal which is set against my forecast conclusion for Brexit, from someone who correctly called both the 2015 General Election that the pollsters got so badly wrong and the 2014 Scottish referendum.

Stock Market Just Before the BrExit Vote / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Donald_W_Dony

Though the conversation surrounding the outcome of the EU referendum continues to heat-up, during the last 36 hours, the market has already decided on which side is going to win.

Two key defensive elements, in particular, are pulling back as the final count down unfolds.

The Volatility Index or VIX, after a brief surge in early June, has backed-off and dropped into a more moderate risk level.

Stock Market on Verge of Melt Down? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Brad_Gudgeon

July 5th keeps coming back as an important cycle low for the stock market.  The recent daily Bollinger Bands on the SPX shows increasing constriction, which in the past pointed to a possible melt down, similar to what we saw from August 18-24, 2015.  This time around we have the same 115 TD’s from January 20, 2016 to July 5th that we had from March 11, 2015 to August 24, 2015. July 5th is also an important Bradley turn on a new moon.  Another similar Bradley turn occurs on another new moon November 29, 2016, which I believe will likely be another important low this year.

SPX May Break Its Trendline / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Anthony_Cherniawski

SPX has been climbing the Bearish Flag trendline. It may be broken at 2088.00 should SPX continue its decline today.

It may take another day to decline beneath the 50-day Moving Average. It may accelerate if today’s polls show Brexit gaining strength.

Stock Market Hybrid Lindsay Low: June 27-July 1 / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Ed_Carlson

After last week’s failed call for a “relief rally” it becomes harder to accept bullish signals as seen in the McClellan Oscillator this week. There is the possibility of a micro-cycle high on/near Tuesday which gives the possibility of a 1-2 day rally but the next micro-cycle low is due June 29 which matches the Hybrid Lindsay forecast for a low near then which is outlined below.

BrExit Poll Nonsense... Stock Market Rally / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Jack_Steiman

We were all waiting for this Brexit situation to come and go this coming Thursday evening. Then a small sample poll was taken late yesterday and it showed a 70% vote in favor of Britain staying. The futures across the world went nuts to the up side. Europe had many countries up over 3%. Some approaching 4%. Amazing what a small poll can bring out in terms of froth. A market that wants higher will use any excuse to rock itself higher. You can also add in Kurota from Japan saying last night that more easing is on the way. None of it has worked, but that won't stop his desperation. The market got enough frothing news to rock itself up, except in the end the candles were weak today.
