Bank of America Corp. - Banks the Good, Bad and Ugly
B of A has ceased to be one of the leading Ex-Dow 30 - Industrials composite Companies. I am now on a Hold-Cash, and my (fundamental and technical) Indicators are breaking down - with emphasis. I believe it will continue to try, I said try, to test its highs in the coming weeks - BUT - will fail!. It has been on a steady rise in price since the lows of $5.00 per share in December 2011.
It is currently off its highs by over ten percent and with other technical and fundamental negatives, I am on a Very Strong "Warning."
My long-term performance is outstanding so selling is only going to be a very excellent end to a rather long hold..
As inferred above another notable Pull-Back could well be in the making for (BAC) as well as for the Banking Industry.
My previously written articles on BAC (just click) provide you the history of my forecasting, its accuracy and support for my performance.
My Performance (my 5-Year Table) for Bank of America is available by clicking: (BAC) . I treat BofA just like any other Company, and my performance is an excellent credential that I will not hesitate to move my Clients to Cash when my Forecast dictates.

A Special Note for Seniors & Retired Investors - Dividend Yield for B of A: 0.25%
This is one of those Companies that is stingy with dividends, but when it moves, up or down it does so with gusto. That is more of a warning than an endorsement for ownership.
Forecast w/ 5 Year Performance:

My Current Forecast is not as bright as you may think! (I will be more specific upon your email request).
I have reservations about my fundamental valuation; however, it is on my Initial Bearish Forecast - "Warning."
That means: I am cautiously and continuing to HOLD - Bank of America Corp. since having sent Formal Recommendations in May 2009 to my Clients -- the Public never sees my timely Email communications to my Clients until well after my - Emailing those Formal Recommendations - - - I do respond to prospective Client's - Questions and Thoughts. )
My Current Opinion is to Hold-Cash and have taken profits. This may be at even higher prices, but there will be an end and time to sell, but that is not currently in my forecast. That is a balancing of my below three (weighted) pillars of research.
* Fundamentally - ( weighting - - 40% ): My Analytics for my fundamental valuation play a vital role in profitable managing money. Earnings continue to be relatively strong.
* Technically - ( weighting - - 35%): Within this outstanding company, my indicators remain strong. It is just off its highs of $15.
* Consensus Opinion - ( weighting - - 25% ): My third pillar of research is one that is always distorted to the positive by most all financial analysts. That's because they are afraid of being bearish. I am not! My articles on "Reality" are supportive of the below 20 year Chart.
I will personally and promptly reply to any serious investor's inquiry as to my very cautious position for BAC !
"Selectivity" is what I preach (along with discipline and patience) and is what separates the average investor and mutual funds from the profits that come with long-hours / hard work and "selectivity."
