Tuesday, March 29, 2011 Stock Market Commentary: Stocks were quiet after two important economic reports were released: S&P Case/Shiller Home Price Index and consumer sentiment. It was encouraging to see a slew of leading stocks and the benchmark S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq composite, and small cap Russell 2000 index all close above their…
Market Action-Confirmed Uptrend
From our point of view, the market is back in a confirmed uptrend after a modest (and healthy)-6% correction from its post-recovery highs. The fact that the Dow Jones Industrial Average, small-cap Russell 2000 index, and Copper all closed above their respective 50 DMA lines on Wednesday March, 23 was a very healthy sign and suggests higher prices will follow. The very next day, the benchmark S&P 500 regained that important level and broke above its downward trendline (shown above). Couple that with the fact that other markets like Oil, Silver, and Gold are all at fresh post recovery highs suggests it is only a matter of time until equities follow. The final bullish sign for us was that a slew of high ranked stocks triggered fresh technical buy signals this week which suggests higher, not lower prices lie ahead!

Thursday, March 24, 2011 Stock Market Commentary: On Thursday, U.S. stocks opened higher after the latest read on durable goods and jobless claims were released. The 28-week rally, which began on the September 1, 2010 follow-through day (FTD), ended on Thursday March 10, 2011 when all the major U.S. averages plunged below their respective 50…
Market Action- Market In A Correction; 28-Week Rally Ends
All the major averages sliced below their respective 50 DMA lines on Thursday, March 10, 2011. Thursday, March 17, 2011 marked day 1 of a new rally attempt which means that the earliest a possible follow-through day (FTD) could emerge would be Tuesday, as long as Thursday’s lows are not breached. That said, the window is now open for a new FTD to emerge which will confirm the current rally attempt. However, if Thursday’s lows are breached, then the day count will be reset and odds will favor lower prices, not higher, will follow. It is important to note that the recent ominous action reiterates the importance of raising cash and playing strong defense until a new FTD emerges.

we’ll see new lows in the stocks. And if that happens, we’ll

market gets better –it will happen– you’ll see it first in
housing stocks,” said Adam Sarhan, chief executive of Sarhan
Capital in New York.

“The reason why copper is not participating to the upside right now is there are too many unanswered questions,” said Adam Sarhan, chief executive of Sarhan Capital.
He cited the rise in crude oil prices and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, monetary tightening measures in top-consumer China, and the uncertain outcome from Japan’s nuclear crisis as being the most troublesome issues facing the global recovery.
“Investors simply do not know if these events are going to derail the global economic recovery,” Sarhan said.
