Even though price has retraced over one half of the move off the Oct 10 low, the number of stocks hitting a new 52 week low was very low today. At this point I see a positive consolidation off the low. Continue reading

The Dow Jones Transportation Average (TRAN) drops over 8% today and 12% for the week. This is the first signal of the recession that the economist have promised us. Continue reading

The Gold and Silver Index (XAU) has retraced 50% of the 2000-2008 move. The correction can quickly and a bounce could come. But the chart does not look strong in the intermediate term. Continue reading

I posted the charts of two strong looking stocks at the end of July. I noticed that both remain is a strong position. One stock is a home builder and the other is a technology stock. Continue reading

The smaller growth companies cannot function in a recession or a weak credit environment. They do not have the resources to sustain a downturn with large damage. Unless this chart move below the August low I am long term bullish. Continue reading

Price movement was strong on the SPX and weak on the Nasdaq Charts. Continue reading

My short term view of the market is that it is very weak and most likely has topped until a retest or new low is put in - probably in October. But the longer term charts show the total market in a strong position when using the July 2007 to July 2008 range. Continue reading

One bullish possibility is that an A-B-C Elliott Wave correction has completed after five waves up from the July low. At this point there is a setup for possible upside. Until a move up starts, my guesses are for weakness. Continue reading
