Well the "Can" Has Been Kicked Further Down the Road for Now

Stan Moore — Sun, 11 Mar 2012 20:30:19 +0100

Dear Friends and Fellow Traders,

I thought Barron's editor Tom Dolan said it best this week with regard to the Greek financial tragedy. They call it a "restructuring." They call it a "debt swap." They even call it "voluntary." But the latest attempt to save Greece from the Greeks is none of these. It is unarmed robbery. Holders of Greek debt were offered a choice between receiving no money ever and being allowed to hope that they will receive some money years from now. More than 90% oRead More...

Dear Friends and Fellow Traders,

Where's the volatility? We've had 1 out of 8 days with a 1% move this year. Last year we had 54 or 55 days with the market having a 90% bias up or down with 25-40 S&P point moves intra-day. Where is the love?

NEWSLETTERS & RECOMMENDATIONS - October 16, 2011

Fellow Friends and Traders,

The US stock market has withstood a massive dose of bad news to stay even this year while most other world markets are still down well over 10% for the year. The S&Ps are up some 150 points since the 10/3 lows. Ten weeRead More...

NEWSLETTERS & RECOMMENDATIONS - October 9, 2011

Dear Friends and Fellow Traders,

So far the October low sets up a perfect seasonal tendency to rally strongly into the 4th quarter after maybe a few fits and starts. If we clear our current "red zone" resistance between 1175 and 1195 we can rally bacRead More...

Dear Friends,

Update – Oct 4 aftermarket. Wow! What can I say after today's action in our stocks. I wanted to get this out to you after the market opened this morning (Oct 4) but I couldn't get it out fast enough. My apology. I added a bit of new data.

We are sitting on the 200 MMA and the 40% buy for the entire up move off the March '09 lows. The market had broken temporarily below today and then tested the August 8th overnight low. See attached monthly chart.

Thoughts on Europe and New Video Released

Dear Friends & Fellow Traders,

Every week for the last few months I come to trade thinking that the agreements between France and Germany solved the "crisis" and every week this sovereign-debt crisis just won't go away. Investors fear the end of the European Union.

Barron's says it best this week, "Investors realized last week that a resolution to Europe's financial crisis may be far more important to the future of the U.S. financial markets than just about anythRead More...

Expanded SPY Trading thoughts & Outlook Ahead

Stan Moore — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 14:12:24 +0100

Dear Friends & Fellow Traders,

The economic news was generally poor as expected all week but the markets took that in stride after the huge sell-off retest failure of the previous week’s lows. We generally do not care about the news; we only care about the market's reaction to the news.

There is a lot more data coming out that should drive markets this week too. Again most of it will not be any good from reading the early guesstimates of our leading Wall Street economisRead More...
