Selling Kicks In

All the stock market averages were down today as selling kicked in to start the week. The DJIA was down 179 points and the SPX down 20. The volume of declining stocks on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) was the highest since September 28.

At one point today declining stocks outnumbered advancing stocks on the NYSE by 8:1 but by the end of the day that had narrowed to about 4:1. 

In tonight’s Weekday Market Wrap video we look at today’s selling and a couple of trade ideas. A new trade idea was entered on Las Vegas Sands (LVS) and a new one on Under Armour (UA) discussed.  Continue reading

Stock Market Today – Weekend Edition

In today’s Weekend Market Analysis video I look at the U.S. stock market today from both daily and weekly views. This includes all five key indices, indicators and key ETFs.

I’ve had basically the same Elliott Wave count now for the entire year. I am not changing it, as it is my primary count, but I have now created an alternate count for the stock market that I discuss in today’s video.  The Elliott Wave counts are on the S&P 500 (SPX) and the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA).

Waiting for the Jobs Report

The stock market paused today as it waits for the Jobs Report due out at 7:30am CT tomorrow.  The consensus according to Econoday, is for 190,000 new jobs created. Oil pulled back again today and gold continued down.  

In tonight’s video I look to see what the High Yield Bond ETF (HYG) is telling us. I also look at Las Vegas Sands (LVS), Transocean (RIG) and Newmont Mining (NEM). Today we closed a trade idea on Chevron (CVX) with a 77% gain in 5 trading days.  Continue reading

Teasing the Bears

The market pulled back on all the indices today. It’s almost as if it is teasing the bears. It has done this stair stepping process higher for several weeks now.

But there may something a little different this time and I discuss it in tonight’s video. I also briefly look at Michael Kors (KORS) which was up 8%, Mosaic (MOS) which was down 8% and Netflix (NFLX) which was up 4% today.

After the market closed, Facebook (FB) reported earnings and the stock was up about 3%. FireEye (FEYE) on the other hand was trading down 14% along with Whole Foods Market (WFM) trading down 6% in after hours trading. Continue reading

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
