Stock Market Rally on FED Speak Today? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Brad_Gudgeon
The chart below shows that we have the likely hood of staging a huge rally today in the stock market. In fact, the NASDAQ 100 could make a new high by Friday. The trines of October 30 and November 1 turned out to be exhaustion points in a down trend. The 5/10/20 and 40 week lows still loom ahead and are due sometime in mid to late month. Thanksgiving week could be pivotal.

Stock Market Bottoms Up! / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Ed_Carlson
Last week’s commentary detailed the Hybrid Lindsay forecast for a low near Friday of last week. While the market did trend downward into Friday’s close near important support at 2,120, internal indicators show very few signs of an oversold market. In other words, it’s tough to make a case for a tradable low here without any confirming indicators.

SPX May be Ready to Bounce / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
It appears that SPX has declined beneath all its recent lows. Despite the sloppy, overlapping decline, one probable pattern stands out. Minute Waves [i] and [ii] may not yet be complete. If so, we may see a decline to the vicinity of 2112.00 (Wave [i]) before a bounce into tomorrow’s Fed announcement (Wave [ii]).
Should that be the case, the bounce tomorrow may be a strong one.

Stock Market Indices Close Lower After Drifting Most of the Day / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Harry_Boxer
The stock market indices started the week off on a sour note, although they did gap up at the opening, they pulled back, tested, made slightly higher highs on the S&P 500, but the Nasdaq 100 was not able to do so. The rest of the day was spent drifting back down, and in the last hour, they went negative and closed near the session lows going away.
Net on the day, the Dow was down 18.77 at 18,142.42, 12 points off the low and about 50 points off the high. The S&P 500 was down .26 at 2126.15, about 60 cents off its low, 7 off its high, and very, very narrowly changed. The Nasdaq 100 was down 4.32 at 4801.27, closed at the low for the day, and 22 points off its high.

Stock Market Same Old Boredom....Elections Coming Up... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Jack_Steiman
The market did today what it seems to do most every day. Gap and then go nowhere for the rest of the day. The market seems to waiting on the elections to come and go with the hope that Clinton will win only for the fact that it means The Dove, known as Yellen, will remain in place. It also wants deadlocks in the house and senate. However, before we get to the elections we get to look in on how the economy is doing on both manufacturing and services and then we'll gander a look at the Jobs Report on Friday. The fed is in between all this nonsense. Tomorrow it all starts with the ISM Manufacturing Report.

Stock Market - Things are getting interesting... / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
SPX did rally this morning, but only to the 61.8% retracement of Friday’s decline. That peak at 2140.72 marked 4.3 days from the previous high at 2154.79. An uninterrupted decline from that point for 8.6 days would put the low on the afternoon of November 9. It would also be 86 days from the All-time high in SPX on August 15 and 12.9 days form the NDX All-time high.

SPX May Rally, But Weakness Remains / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
The SPX Premarket is running higher this morning and the best Wave analysis I can give is that the Wave [ii] correction may not be over. This may comport with the FOMC meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday with a statement, but no press conference on Wednesday.
The trendline of the Broadening Top offered a support area for a bounce. The target for this retracement may be in the range of the 61.8% level at 2141.01 or as high as Intermediate-term resistance at 2147.58, which is also the 78.6% retracement level.

By: Brad_Gudgeon
The astrological themes going forward surround around Neptune which rules lies, deceit, secrets, radicalism, illegal activities and fraud.

Gold could see a big move up around Nov 3-4. GDX could rally to around 26.00.Read full article... Read full article...

SPX Stock Market Downtrend Continues / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Tony_Caldaro
The market started the week at SPX 2141. After a gap up opening on Monday, and a SPX 2155 high, the market pulled back into Wednesday hitting 2132. Another gap up opening on Thursday took the market to SPX 2147. But another pullback dropped to the SPX to 2119 on Friday. For the week the SPX/DOW mixed, and the NDX/NAZ lost 0.95%. Economic reports for the week were again mixed. On the downtick: consumer confidence/sentiment, new home sales, durable goods, and the WLEI declined. On the uptick: Case-Shiller, FHFA housing, pending home sales, Q3 GDP, plus weekly jobless claims declined. Next week will be highlighted by the FOMC meeting, the ISMs and monthly Payrolls. Best to your week!

$50 Trillion in Cash Is Sitting on the Sidelines Today / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2016
By: David_Galland
Dear Parader,
I have just come off what can only be described as “Hell Week” in opening Bad Brothers Wine Experience.
To give you a sense of the enterprise, below are photos of Bad Brothers four days before we opened, and a photo on opening day.
The dramatic difference between before and after is attributable to the way many Argentines approach a job. Weeks, or even months, can go by with modest progress, but when the deadline is staring them in the face like the proverbial onrushing train in the tunnel, 30 or 40 people show up at the door like the company of dwarves in The Hobbit.

Nasdaq 100 Takes Out Support, S&P 500 Hangs on by a Thread / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016
By: Harry_Boxer
The stock market indices had a very strong gap up at the opening today, they reached resistance, and then they came down pretty hard the rest of the session to finish negative on the day and near the session lows going away.
Net on the day, the Dow was down 29.65 at 18,169.68, but was 85 points higher at one point in the day. The S&P 500 was down 6.39 at 2133.04, 14 points off the high. The Nasdaq 100 was down 24.15 at 4836.45, nearly 50 points off the high. So you can see how that nasty reversal affected the market.

The Aging of the Microchip Industry Is the Reason Behind This Economic Malaise / Stock-Markets / Technology
By: John_Mauldin
BY GEORGE FRIEDMAN : Classical economics argues that as capitalism matures, competition causes both wages and profits to decline. Wages go down because the early successes of capitalism cause more workers to compete for jobs. Profits decline because more businesses enter markets, causing business failure.
