Weekly Market Outlook – The Bulls Flinched, But The Bears Didn’t Seize The Opportunity
The stock market may have notched yet-another weekly win last week. But, it was tainted. It’s downright alarming, in fact, hinting that the rally as near or at the point of exhaustion right where you’d expect it to hit a wall.
Weekly Market Outlook – So Good It’s Bad?
Two weeks ago the rally was starting to show some cracks. They were all repaired last week… and then some. Indeed, stocks logged a major gain during the holiday-shortened week, ending at record highs above important technical ceilings.
Weekly Market Outlook – Despite Last Week’s Gain, More Red Flags Are Waving
More often not, how something happened is at least as important as what happened. It’s certainly true of the stock market anyway. Sometimes it’s the subtle, nuanced clues that give you a better hint of what’s really going on.
Weekly Market Outlook – Technical Resistance Remains In The Way
Stocks managed to log another win last week… albeit just barely. And not all of them. Whereas the S&P 500 mustered a 0.6% gain during the holiday-interrupted stretch, the Nasdaq suffered the tiniest of weekly losses.
Weekly Market Outlook – The Bulls Need To Learn A Thing Or Two About Pacing
Following through on the prior week’s rebound gains, stocks logged another win last week to end the five-day stretch at (or at least near) record highs. The S&P 500 was up 1.6%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite rallied an impressive 3.2%.
Weekly Market Outlook – The Bulls Push Back… Some Of Them, Anyway
The market bounced back from the previous week’s stumble last week, reaching record-high territory as a result. The bigger trend remains bullish.
Weekly Market Outlook – Dented, But Not Derailed
Stocks finished the week on something of a high note, bouncing back from Friday’s intraday tumble to at least break even. The holiday-shortened week was the first loser in the last six of them, making good on last Thursday’s red flag
Weekly Market Outlook – Not As Bullish As It Seems On The Surface
Despite Friday’s bounce from Thursday’s sizeable stumble, for the first time in five weeks the S&P 500 lost ground… although only the S&P 500. The NASDAQ Composite mustered its fifth-straight weekly win, reaching new record levels as a result.
Weekly Market Outlook – Still Not The Kind Of Recovery Effort The Bulls Want To See
A tough week turned real bullish real fast on Friday thanks to a poor jobs report for April. Payroll growth came up short of expectations, pushing the unemployment rate up, and leading traders to believe the Fed may be cutting interest rates sooner.
Weekly Market Outlook – To The Brink, But Not Past It
The bulls answered the call last week, pushing firmly back against the prior week’s rout. That is, the previous week’s 3.0% tumble, the S&P 500 bounced 2.7% last week. It’s a much-needed glimmer of hope. Just don't grow too hopeful too soon.
Weekly Market Outlook – Everything Just Changed, Yet…
The S&P 500 took a hefty 3.0% tumble last week alone though, snapping several important technical support levels in the process. The best thing going for the bulls now is the scope and speed of the selling, which sets the stage for a snapback bounce.
Weekly Market Outlook – One More Bad Day For Stocks Could Do It
For the second week in a row, stocks suffered losses. And this time around, the market was dragged to the brink of implosion, but not past it. It’s close, though. It’s so close that one more bad day could push the indexes below key technical floors.
Weekly Market Outlook – Cracks Are Starting To Show, But The Rally Remains Intact
Stocks suffered a loss last week -- the biggest one in a while. Worse, the move shattered what had become a technical support level. There’s still a decent chance, however, the market could bounce back into bullish form without moving lower first.
Weekly Market Outlook – Just Chuggin’ Along
Following through on the prior week’s rebound, stocks (mostly) made more progress last week despite it being shortened by the holiday. The longer-term uptrend is still alive and well. There’s decent reason to believe more upside is possible.
Weekly Market Outlook – The Rally’s Renewal Is 0% Surprising
For a couple of weeks, it looked like the market might have finally succumbed to the weight of its recent gains. But, the bulls were able to put the rally back in gear before it completely stalled. In short, the rally is still alive.
Weekly Market Outlook – Small Cracks Showing, But Don’t Panic Yet
Stocks suffered another loss last week, albeit a small one. And, depending the index, no serious damage was done. Moreover, in the one case where a key floor did finally start to break, several more are still below, waiting to stop the bleeding.
