The stock market in the United States and markets around the globe have all had a good October…so far. But when you look at the S&P 500 (SPX) chart you clearly see that it is very close to hitting a huge wall of overhead supply.

At least for one day, China is back influencing the global markets. China released data last night that showed that imports dropped substantially due to weak domestic demand. This again is stoking fears about what’s really happening in China’s economy.

The market was trying to digest the jobs report that was released Friday morning showing less than expected job growth and downward revisions to July and August.
This market has still not demonstrated the type of pessimism at a selloff low that was shown in 2011 much less 2008/2009. I talk about this in today’s Weekend Market Analysis video (below). In addition to our normal key ETFs that I review on the weekend, I add several more sector ETFs to look at a total of 10 broad sectors and 2 more specialized sectors. Continue reading
