Eerily Perfectly Bullish – Weekly Market Outlook It may have been a modest effort, but modest was still good enough to carry the market to record highs last week. Even more interesting – and perhaps a little surprising – is that volume was growing on the way up. That suggests traders at least have a little faith in the budding...
Plenty On Tap For The Week Ahead – Weekly Market Outlook Thanks to a huge Thursday rally, the S&P 500 (SPX) (SPY) ended the first weak of earnings season up 48.3 points, or +2.96%. It was the second winning week in a row, and the close of 1680.19 on Friday was the highest close ever. The S&P 500 didn’t make...
One of our long-time readers, Mike, wrote in with the following request: "Hi Price, love the Daily Trendwatch, particularly about trading, and trading mindset. I've heard it said that any job (and I consider trading my job) breaks down to 5 to 7 critical success factors (CSFs) or key skills. Can you address what you believe these key skills to...
Can The Bulls Keep Momentum As Earnings Season Begins – Weekly Market Outlook Although the 4th of July meant a break for trading in the middle of last week, the bulls were still able to create some fireworks. Stocks advanced 1.6% last week, and made some important (even if subtle) technical progress by doing so. It may still be a...
Seasonal Calendar Trends At Play Here – Weekly Market Outlook Stocks managed to make a decent gain last week. Then again, after getting pounded the week before, a bounce of some sort was inevitable. And, when push came to shove on the last day of the week, the bears took control again. So now what? Simply put, the market’s at...
SPX Breaks Some Key Levels – Weekly Market Outlook Despite Friday’s modest bounce, last week’s price action was clearly an unexpected blow to the market. There’s still a smidgen of a chance stocks could recover without doling out the normal-sized bull market correction (a completely temporary event, by the way), but it’s going to have to do a lot of...
VIX Trending Higher – Weekly Market Outlook Despite a convincing reversal of a budding downtrend the week before, last week’s bullish effort fizzled. Although it’s pretty clear the indices have been unable to fight their way back above a key ceiling, it’s equally clear the bulls have drawn a line in the sand at a key support level. We’ll look...
Fed Will Stand Pat – Weekly Market Outlook The bears may have started out in charge of things last week, but the bulls took control on Thursday and Friday, pulling the market back in the black. It would be easy (especially for the perma-optimists) to jump to a bullish conclusion as a result, but before you do that, we all...
2013 Belmont Analysis & Handicapping From BigTrends Price Headley: This is the toughest Belmont to handicap in the 14 years since I started my Triple Crown analysis after the launch of BigTrends.com. It may be wet at the New York track and while Orb liked the wet conditions in the Derby and is the sentimental favorite for the owners in their home...
Have The Bears Finally Taken A Foothold – Weekly Market Outlook Well, the bulls may have started the month of May in charge, and even retained control for the better part of last month. There’s little doubt as to who was in charge at the end of the May, though – it was the bears, hitting the S&P 500 (SPX)...
