Yesterday, in my article, I mentioned that we should see some profit-taking and more volatility. This morning, the latest economic data were mostly positive with solid industrial production and benign inflation numbers. Housing starts, however, dropped. The market was a little soft at the open, but, pushed higher in mid-day; only to lose most of [...]

Last weekend, in my Market Forecast, I said: "For the new week, with both SPX and DJI ending below major support levels (SPX 1080 and DJI 10,000), the market can see additional selling pressure. Energy sectors still look weak, with oil spill in the Gulf looking to extend into the fall, although the containment cap [...]

June 12, 2010 – 2:49 pm
It was another very volatile week; no surprise there! However, the way that the market closed the week was surprisingly strong! We were positioned properly to take advantage of the market’s strength because the charts indicated that the weakness on Wednesday may have been a shakeout. We navigated through some pretty tough waters earlier [...]

Markets Can’t Catch a Break
June 9, 2010 – 5:05 pm
It seemed early on that markets were going to get moving to the upside.

Last weekend, in my Market Forecast, I wrote: "For the new week, the market is definitely struggling to bounce from May’s slump. However, Europe’s financial problems may be worse than that of the US, as China’s Premier warned of a possible double-dip in the global economy’s attempt to recover. Charts are certainly showing the same [...]

June 4, 2010 – 3:45 pm
Once again, the market was extremely volatile, going through big swings. Just when it appeared to be ready to make a bounce, the latest jobs data turned the bulls away. Treasuries, dollar, and gold went higher as investors ran for safety. Nevertheless, we traded pretty well, following the market’s movements. We traded on both sides and [...]
