Good morning. Trifecta. Heard the term? No, I’m not talking about the horserace track. I’m talking about U.S. equities. Specifically, a Dow Trifecta. That’s when the Dow Industrials, the Dow Transports and the Dow Utilities all close at record highs. Yesterday the Dow jumped 101 points closing at 17,485. The Dow Transports rose 0.47% and […]

Good Morning. Yesterday was the antithesis of Tuesday. A bad day. A very bad day. The S&P 500 traded up to the level I mentioned in my Report on Tuesday, 1,949 (technically I said 1,930 to 1,943 but most definitely close enough), and failed. We actually traded marginally higher in the morning, as high as […]
Good morning. During the last hour of trading yesterday I felt like I was hanging onto the edge of a 50 ft. ledge just hoping selling wouldn’t come pouring in at the close. And it didn’t. Whew! Although the Dow did close down 24, at 16,117, it could have been a lot worse for about […]

Good morning. Investing in equities is all about growth and economic reports, or a lack thereof, and are killing stocks taking a toll on investors. And not just here in the U.S. but globally. On Friday an index of global equities hit a 7 month low and oil slumped to a 4 month low (more […]
Good morning. On Wednesday we saw a light at the end of the tunnel and believed it was the Fed holding it. It turned out not be the Fed but a train. Wham! We got run over. Serious damage. Carnage. Triage applied. No survivors with the Dow losing the most points it has in a […]
Good morning. Thank you Fed. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! Yesterday right when the major indexes were posting multi-month lows the minutes of the Fed’s September 16-17 meeting in which was stated that 1) that raising interest rates was data dependent and 2) the Fed was concerned about the strength of the U.S. dollar.

Good morning. I apologize for the delay in today’s report. I have been on conference calls since I walked in the office this morning. Consequently, today’s report will be briefer than normal (which may be to your delight!). Equities hung in there yesterday with the Dow closing down 4 to 16,802, the S&P 500 closed […]
