Continues to Push

The stock market continues to push higher with the DJIA up 89 points, the SPX up 5.7 and the Nasdaq Composite up 18 points. Oil was higher today and positively influenced our two trade ideas on Apache (APX) and Chevron (CVX).  

In tonight’s video I look at today’s market action and talk about a revised scenario for gold (GLD) that seems much clearer to me.  Continue reading

Stock Market Levitation Act

Stock Market Levitation ActThe market pushed higher again today continuing its levitation act that it’s been conducting for a few weeks now. The DJIA was up another 165 points and the S&P 500 (SPX) was up 24.6 points. All the indices showed solid gains today.

Although the SPX is just 30 points away from its all-time high, the NYSE Composite Index (NYA) has just today hit a 68% retracement of the move down and Russell 2000 (RUT) has just touched a 50% retracement level.

Also given that the Energy ETF (XLE) and some of the oil stocks look they are trying to bottom, I am wondering if a geopolitical event is about to occur that will affect oil positively and the stock market negatively.  Continue reading

Another Push Higher

The markets added another push higher today with a fair amount of volatility in the afternoon after the Fed announced no change in interest rates. The DJIA ended the day up 198 points and the Russell 2000 started to play catch-up also, up 33 points, almost 3%. 

Oil looks like it may trying to trap some bears with the move today. In tonight’s video I also talk about 2 new trade ideas on Apache (APA) and Chevron (CVX).  Continue reading
