- Thursday, May 24, 2012, 7:09 AM Peter Lynch had the theory Mondays are typically bad for stocks because the weekend just gives the worrywarts time to worry. Eddy Elfenbein puts the idea to the test and finds the S&P is off 8.23% for all the combined Mondays since April 15, 2011. Tuesdays: The S&P has gained 20.05%. 6 Comments
- Tuesday, May 22, 2012, 10:55 AM A nice bookend to Goldman's bell-ringing March 21 buy stocks/sell bonds call, David Kostin and crew are today out with a bearish note warning about poor near-term prospects for stocks. The S&P vs. Treasurys in the period before and after the March 21 boner. 1 Comment
- Tuesday, May 22, 2012, 7:29 AM As of last Friday, Jeff Saut's key technical indicators were in historic negative territory. In past cases, he says, major market averages were higher a month later 92% of the time. "You can have cheap equity prices, or you can have good news, but you can't have both," says Joe Rosenberg. We currently have "bad news" and "cheap prices." Take advantage. Comment!
- Monday, May 21, 2012, 8:24 AM The DJIA completed its 3rd consecutive week of losses last week - something that's only happened 9 other times in the history of the index, says Jason Goepfert. The subsequent performance in those other instances "wasn't particularly consistent or inspiring." Comment!
- Friday, May 18, 2012, 8:09 AM Some perspective on the move out of risk and into fear: The VIX is up 47.5% since May 1 and the put/call option ratio and put option volume are at their highest since the August 2011 panic. Of 13 trading days in May, the S&P has been down on 10. A tradeable bottom? Maybe, but the VIX is nowhere near its 2011 high. (see also) 1 Comment
- Thursday, May 17, 2012, 5:58 PM A contrarian buy indicator? The AAII's latest investor sentiment survey shows bullish sentiment falling to a mere 23.6% (down 180 bps) for the week ending 5/16. Bearish sentiment is nearly twice that at 46% (up 390 bps), and Neutral sentiment is at 30.4% (down 210 bps). (previous) 4 Comments [U.S. Economy]
- Thursday, May 17, 2012, 3:42 PM A contrarian signal if you ask Bill Lubby, over 1M put contracts have already been traded on the S&P today - nearly 2.5X the average and following 913K yesterday. Over the past couple of years the "rare instances" when put volume reached 1M typically coincided with bottoms in stocks. 17 Comments
- Thursday, May 17, 2012, 9:45 AM Yesterday's drop in stocks and gain in bonds put the S&P 500 dividend yield 50 basis points higher than the 10-year Treasury yield. There were just 3 days in 2011 when the spread was greater than that - all would have been pretty good times to buy shares and go the beach for a few months. (h/t Bryan Mortenson) 1 Comment [Quick Ideas]
- Thursday, May 10, 2012, 9:00 AM The similarity of the performance of the S&P over the last 2 years vs. the 2 years leading up to May 11, 1987. (h/t Michael Sedacca) 9 Comments
- Wednesday, May 9, 2012, 4:43 PM The Dow's current 6-session losing streak is the first since last July - which was just an overture to early August's collapse. One interesting pattern - then and now - was a market rally in the last hour of trade, a sell-off overnight (as Europe opened), and another attempted rally into and just after the European close. 2 Comments [Global & FX]
- Monday, May 7, 2012, 10:35 AM "Unbalanced towards the risk side," is how John Hussman continues to describe the market's current risk/reward tradeoff. His indicators - among them institutional crowding into "risk on" trades, "near panic" levels of insider selling, and a burst of new stock issuance - are at about the most extreme negative levels he's ever observed. 3 Comments
- Thursday, May 3, 2012, 1:32 PM Bullish sentiment jumps 7.8 points to 35.4% in the latest AAII Sentiment Survey, the highest level in a month, but below the long term average of 39%. Likewise, bearish sentiment hit a 1-month low, diving 8.9 points to 28.5% - below the historical average of 30%. Comment!
- Tuesday, May 1, 2012, 11:53 AM More than the entirety of the S&P 500's capital gain since 1932 has come during the 7 days surrounding the end/start of the month, writes Eddy Elfenbein. "If you slice and dice any data long enough, you're bound to find some anomaly," he quickly adds, not positive there's a tradable angle here. 9 Comments
- Tuesday, May 1, 2012, 7:37 AM "It is metaphysically clear that if we attack the deficit, the economy will go negative," said Jeff Gundlach in a talk last week. The debt ceiling debate will come in the fall, "perfectly timed to make it a centerpiece of the election," he says. Josh Brown's outstanding notes from the event. (also) 7 Comments
- Monday, April 30, 2012, 10:22 AM Treasury prices continue to rally, the 10-year note yield off another 2 bps to 1.91%, the lowest level in nearly 3 months. Equity and Treasury prices have faithfully moved inversely to each other over past years, but the move higher in stocks since last fall has not led to a sell-off in government paper. Operation Twist in action? 2 Comments [U.S. Economy]
- Monday, April 30, 2012, 8:33 AM CFTC data shows the small speculator as the only net long in S&P futures contracts, with the commercials and large specs on the other side of the trade. It's not immediately bearish, says Peter Brandt, as small specs sometimes get it right, but when this group is the only net long, things could move quickly if the market does turn down. 2 Comments

What a drastic drop off in $SPY $QQQ $DIA before the close. Beat the indexes, closing up 1.23% but over .4% off high of the day. Worrisome - View all 2 replies
