Stocks started the day off very strong but soon started selling off, after strong durable goods orders, strong new-home sales, and bond yields ticking higher sent signals to traders that the Fed would not be cutting rates any time soon.

After such a nice day yesterday, where the Nasdaq bounces right off its 50 dma, the last thing you want to see is an immediate reversal; well that is what we got. Stocks almost gave back all of yesterdays gains in the Nasdaq and gave all of the gains back in the SP 500 and [...]

Stocks were looking very strong today until an afternoon selloff wiped away almost all of the gains.

I interpret this to mean that a conflict with Iran will mean a [...]

Stocks started the day off rough and only got worse as the LEI was delayed. The delay helped the selloff pick up steam and stocks quickly dropped to their low’s on the day. However, like usual, buyers stepped in to help support a declining market. However, by the close, their buying could not prop the [...]

Stocks suffered a rough day, on Wednesday, as INTC’s pricing battle against AMD weighed heavily on the Nasdaq, with INTC selling off. A weak Fed beige book report and a stronger than expected PPI, more than likely, did not help either. At the close, the Nasdaq led the way on the downside, falling .75%, the [...]

A day of minor volatility gave way to a nice rally after 1pm EST sending all the indexes in a nice solid uptrend into the close. The possible reason for the rally was a left-over feel good effect off the AAPL news in combination with another drop in crude oil. Today’s 3% drop now brings [...]

On a day where a strong IBD/TIPP poll shows that investors are gaining confidence and AAPL releases the new iPhone and Apple TV, stocks decided to churn one in today. The only exciting action came in the SP 600 which turned a 1.1% loss into a gain by the end of the day.

The market started the day with a nasty gap down on two possible news stories. A big jump (largest since 1974) in Producer Prices for November and a scare over a possible new Asian-market meltdown put a lot of pressure on the indexes. However, bulls remain extremely strong in the face of selling and rallied [...]
