S&P 550: Will Santa give us the 200 DMA?

Mish Schneider | December 21, 2011

The Market's a Wonderland!

Today, the wonder was in the Ultrashort Lehman 20+ Year Treasuries (TBT). Rates made new lows this week; turned around yesterday and then today, opened firm in the face of index weakness. Rates stayed firm the …


Stock Market-Some Clarity in the Mud

Mish Schneider | December 20, 2011

After yesterdays' selloff, even on the heels of today's rally, we can put the island bottom to bed. We can also put the oversold condition to bed. But, we do now have a return to an unconfirmed recovery phase in …


SPY in Midlife

Mish Schneider | December 15, 2011

Market going through a midlife something-I do not want to write the "C" word. Although, I am compelled to say SPY back in a Bear Phase.

AAPL: Narrowest Range in 4 Months

Mish Schneider | December 11, 2011

"Sarkozy smiling as he leaves the EU meeting." Twitter entry last Friday. He must have known that NASDQ would end the week with a Golden Cross and its 4th Accumulation Day in volume. Now, everything is lined up-the moving averages, …


NASDQ Golden Cross

Mish Schneider | December 8, 2011

And just like that, no more overbought conditions in the indexes! While the EU dance around with one another, let's look at my favorite indicators:

SPY: Bye bye 200 DMA for now. Hello the Exponential Moving Average. No change of …


Stocks The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

Mish Schneider | December 7, 2011

4 Accumulation Days in volume and a close above the illustrious 200 DMA in S & P 500. Officially overbought on the 2-Day RSI but not on the weekly or monthly. Midcaps (IWM) on the other hand, had a distribution …
