Stock Market Commentary:

In the future, to avoid any confusion, we are no longer going to use outside resources to label, instead focus on what has worked exceptionally well for us over 7 years, our own analysis. A popular outside source changed their label on Friday to Market in a confirmed rally, without a proper FTD emerging. This is bizarre and frankly plain irresponsible. From our standpoint, the rally that began on September 1, 2010 is still intact and we said that in our commentary on November 16, 2010 when the outside source said the rally ended –Full Story here. However, we changed it to be inline with them but that was clearly a mistake.

    The market remains in a correction, which emphasizes the importance of raising cash and adopting a strong defensive stance until a new follow-through day emerges. For the past several weeks, this column has steadily noted the importance of remaining very selective and disciplined because all of the major averages are still trading below their downward sloping 50-day moving average (DMA) lines. In addition, their 50 DMA lines may continue to act as stubborn resistance. It was also recently noted that the NYSE Composite and the benchmark S&P 500’s 50 DMA lines sliced below their respective 200 DMA lines, an event known by market technicians as a “death cross” which usually has bearish implications. Trade accordingly.

    Market Outlook- Confirmed Rally:
    The major U.S. averages are back in a new confirmed rally and are flirting with resistance of their current 2.5 month base. The benchmark S&P 500 index scored a proper FTD on Tuesday, October 18, 2011 when it rallied over 2% on heavier volume than the prior session. The next important area of resistance is September’s highs and then the 200 DMA line. In addition, it is important to note that the bulls scored a victory since many of the major averages closed above their downward sloping 50 DMA lines for the first time since late July!

    The NYSE Composite Index closed below its 200 DMA line for the third straight session which is not a healthy sign. The Nasdaq Composite and S&P 500 Index did not undercut Monday’s lows which technically means that Tuesday marked Day 2 of their current rally attempt and the earliest a possible FTD can emerge for either index would be Thursday. However, if yesterday’s lows are breached then the day count will be reset. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has yet to violate last Monday’s low, which means that it just finished Day 7 of its current rally attempt and the window for a proper FTD remains open (unless its 5/10/10 low of 10,386 is breached). What does all of this mean for investors? Simple, the market is in a correction which reiterates the importance of adopting a defense stance until a new rally is confirmed. Trade accordingly.
