Volatility Picks Up As Selling Volume Lightens
Intraday ranges were wide as indices struggled between building swing lows or selling off even more. By the close of today’s business, indices were indicating lows are not in place and further declines are likely but these may be nothing more than spike lows (on yet another wide range day). Whatever happens, the investor `buy`signals […]
The Market Is Gunning For Its Early-2018 Lows
After last week’s powerful sell-off, the U.S. stock market opened much higher this morning, with the Dow up as much as 352 points. Mainstream investors and TV commentators were excited, as they usually are, that the sell-off may have created an excellent “dip-buying” opportunity. I wasn’t buying it one bit, however: Last week, I wrote that “the […]
World Markets Update – Monday, Oct. 29

Market Talk – Monday, Oct. 29
Much of the early Asian talk surrounded fears we would see a continuation of last weeks weakness, but from external rather than internally led. Despite the fact that Chinese indices are off 25% YTD, the weakness seen in Europe and the US is still impacting an already weak Chinese market. The late news of Friday […]

But our Econintersect Economic Index (EEI) moderately improved and still remains well into territory associated with normal expansions. Analyst Summary of this Economic Forecast Our last forecast showed a significant decline […]
Forget Spooky Market, 4 Halloween ETF Treats For Investors
Fear before Halloween is understandable, especially with October seeing one of the wildest stock market gyrations. But the road is possibly not as thorny as it is right now. Though rising rate concerns and U.S.-Sino trade tensions will keep playing foul occasionally, the fears will probably be oversold by next month. Investors should note that […]
Is This Selling Going To Stop?
Stocks went on a wild ride today with incredible volatility. Selling was relentless until an impressive rally in the last 15 minutes of the day left everyone wondering if we just saw capitulation. If you’re wondering the same thing then watch this video now because you may be surprised to find out what may happen […]
S&P Poised To Match Largest Corrective Dip Of 10-Year Bull Campaign
The S&P 500 is poised to match the February decline (January 26th to February 9th) by points (342) and by percentage (-11.91%), also the largest pullback since the bull campaign started over 10 years ago. After Monday’s close, the S&P 500 nearly tested these metrics at 2597, inching close in the final hour of trade […]
What’s The U.S. Dollar Really Worth?
I have tried in both creative and straightforward ways to discuss with you how vulnerable the overall market is. In the same way, I have tried to discuss how much opportunity lies ahead in commodities. In today’s market activity, we wanted to see Transportation IYT clear and close above 180.75. Why? That would have given […]
