The Longer-Term Trend - Saturday, June 17
On Friday, I raised a little cash and entered into a couple very small short positions. I will adjust based on the behavior of the market.
Market Sentiment - Friday, June 16
Investors are clearly concerned about valuations of leading Technology stocks. The money wants to flow into other sectors, but the other sectors all have their own problems. As a result, they look like they are breaking out, but then stall.
The Medium-Term Trend - Wednesday, June 14
The leader list has really changed a lot over the last week. Technology and QQQ have fallen off the list, and replaced with Industrials, Materials, Dividends. I expect we'll see TLT back in leadership soon.
Market Rates - Tuesday, June 13
The PMO index topped out a few days ago, and started pointing lower yesterday. I think it means that the best buying opportunity for this short-term up-cycle is past, and now we watch and wait for signs of weakness.
Sector Strength - Monday, June 12
We are on watch for a new short-term downtrend. The PMO index is pointing lower, and now we watch and wait for signs that the major indexes are going to move lower too.
The Leader List Of ETFs
The technology was very weak today, and it brought down many of the momentum stocks. The Gold Miners have been a major disappointment.
Currencies And Commodities Are Weak Relative To Stocks
Both currencies and commodities are weak relative to stocks which is obviously bullish for stocks. The US Dollar is relatively weak compared to the Euro and the Emerging Market currencies, and that is bullish for foreign stocks.
Market Rates - Tuesday, June 6
The short-term trend is up, and the trend is at the top of the range. This means the best short-term opportunity to buy stocks has passed. You only get about nine of these short-term opportunities to buy per year.
Sector Strength - Monday, June, 5
Today's number of new lows was a bit elevated, but nothing to get too concerned about.
The Longer-Term Trend - Saturday, June 3
The market really turned around this week. It felt significant because a number of important indicators were pointing to trouble in the market.
The Short-Term Trend - Thursday, June 1
The market was looking very weak yesterday, but bounced back today with strength.
The Medium-Term Trend - Wednesday, May 31
The caution flag is waving for the general market, but it is still just a caution. The number of new 52-week lows is elevated.
The Short-Term Trend - Tuesday, May 30
The market rallies to new highs, but the number of participating stocks declines. It usually ends with a pullback in the indexes, but not always.
Sector Strength - Monday, May 29
The major indexes show the large caps as the leaders, while the small and mid caps are starting to lag. This is generally a sign of some market weakness.
The Longer-Term Trend - Saturday, May 27
Q1 GDP was weak, but has Q2 started to pick up? If so, we could start to see the broader stock market participate which would push the indexes even higher. Otherwise, we get the market correction we all have been waiting for.
The Medium-Term Trend - Wednesday, May 24
My indicators are generally positive towards the market, but I am feeling increasingly cautious. At the moment, I am much more inclined to take profits rather than buy as the major indexes hit new highs.
