Market Overview / Year-end 2010
Wed. Dec. 29th 2010 7:00am Market Overview At the close of the equity market in the US yesterday the Dow and S&P 500 showed modest gains. Even though that fact does not point to a true direction by the investors, yet the Dow and S&P reached a 2 year highs at the close yesterday, which is by itself a somewhat breaking point. Energy stocks showed modest gains as well but the sector as a whole did not suggest any clear direction or momentum while gaining only 0.4%; however the long run outlook pointing to promising profits as the annual gain will reach as high ...

For Tuesday May 25th. the down trend of markets around the world continues. as was written here about 2 weeks ago i still believe the USA market Dow will hit 9000 before we can see any day light... bears are coming back in a hurry !! so if you can short the market , do it now and ride it on the way down....
Was Friday just an exception to the rule?
Friday was a wild day in the Markets, and maybe for many good reasons. for one it was option expiration day, after a week long of a down market there was a great opportunity for option play!! the market huge swing (from 125 points down to 125 points up , a 250 points swing!!) presented great opportunities in the option market for that day (day of expiration) few examples are : aapl was down to 231 in the morning and its 240 call for that day was at .25 , if you would predict the market swing and got 10 contracts @.25=$250 at ...
As predicted Friday May 21st. on a down trend
Friday Sell off !!!! As predicted yesterday by myself , the market lost steam during the early morning trading' already at the pre-market trend showing in negative territory and more than just moderate' it drops below 10,000!! Another factor to take into consideration is that today is May options expiration day' so the market may play a sea saw all day to find its correct closing mark due to options day!!
Another down day in the markets
I bet everyone is feeling the vibes of 18 months ago, when the market hit a record low. don't get scared too easily, it might not get there again, however we are on a down trend recently for sure ! i started to write about that down trend few days ago , and especially yesterday i wrote that the market might go down dramatically and the Dow might hit 9000 points again or close to it' it maybe a time to short the market again, and in few weeks buy it back, VIX is high and investors finding better avenues to ...
