Surprise, surprise… Another down week for stocks. As I pointed out last week, the trend is unquestionably bearish.  The markets continue to see sellers in control with high volume on the downside. As I write this update, the S&P 500 is trading within 2% of its 52-week low…  Not a good sign for bulls. Inflation … The post Watchlist Update: No Big Surprises for Stocks appeared first on Stock Surge Daily.

Is This Small-Cap Energy Stock on the Verge of a Breakout?

Well, that was a doozy… Stocks got clobbered again on Wednesday in one of the worst sessions in recent memory. This is what my index watchlist looked like an hour before the close… The Dow ultimately fell 3.6%, the S&P finished the day lower by 4% and the Nasdaq 100 dropped a whopping 5.1%.

When Shorting Stocks, Be the School Yard Bully

Yesterday, I talked about one particular area of the market where stocks are still getting bought… The shipping sector. So, yes, there are some bullish opportunities out there. But for the most part, I continue to see weakness across the board, and I’m maintaining my bearish stance. There are still a lot more short opportunities … The post When Shorting Stocks, Be the School Yard Bully appeared first on Stock Surge Daily.

Even in a Bear Market… These Stocks Are Shipping Strong Gains

I’ve given CNBC’s Jim Cramer a hard time for being more about entertainment than real investing advice. After all, the Mad Money host doesn’t have the best track record when it comes to big calls, as I detailed in a recent article. But there is one thing Cramer is right about… There is always a … The post Even in a Bear Market… These Stocks Are Shipping Strong Gains appeared first on Stock Surge Daily.

Was This the Final Straw for the Stock Market?

As goes Apple, so goes the market? This is a phrase you’ve probably heard before… Apple (AAPL) is the largest US company with a market cap of $2.4 trillion. And it’s the world’s second-largest company, just behind Saudi Arabian Oil Company. So, it would make sense that if Apple moves in a certain direction, the … The post Was This the Final Straw for the Stock Market? appeared first on Stock Surge Daily.

Watchlist Update: These Stocks Are Crumbling Under their Own Weight

Stocks saw more selling last week with each of the major indexes making new 52-week lows. As I pointed out in last week’s update, this was largely expected. Institutions were clearly reducing exposure, as evidenced by the increase in volume on the acceleration down. Given the violence of the recent selloff, I believe we are … The post Watchlist Update: These Stocks Are Crumbling Under their Own Weight appeared first on Stock Surge Daily.

Yesterday, I talked about three technical reasons why there could be more selling in store for this market. One of them was the action in the S&P 500 Volatility Index (VIX), also known as the market’s “fear gauge.” Without getting into the details of how it is calculated, what you need to know is that … The post How We’ll Know the Worst is Behind Us appeared first on Stock Surge Daily.
