Today's Video Update: Is The Market Running Out Of Gas?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 10th of May.

Running Out Of Gas Or Is Complacency Setting In?
The market has two enemies, gravity and complacency. It would appear as though complacency in this market is becoming more and more of the norm, which is a definite danger and warning sign. The type of complacent attitude we are seeing tends to give birth to the market's second enemy, gravity. Earlier this week, we produced a short video explaining how a simple technical formation known as a "parallel channel" may be indicating that we are close to an interim top for this market.

Today's Video Update: Is a Parallel Channel Indicating a Top For This Market?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 8th of May.

Is a Parallel Channel Indicating a Top For This Market?
One of the biggest enemies of investors is being too complacent. I feel that this malady is very much the case in today's market. I believe investors should be concerned and should be using money management stops on all of their long positions. We have not seen any type of significant pullback since the recent low on April 18th. In today's daily update, we are going to be looking at a parallel channel, which could be marking a new term top for this market. The parallel channel started in mid November of last year and has remarkably contained most of the action for the past six months. I think you'll find this video to be particularly interesting today.

Today's Video Update: Stocks Subdued After Record Week

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Jeremy Lutz here, with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 6th of May.

Stocks are little changed after record week
The stock market cleared new milestones Friday after the government reported that employers added more workers. However, that hasn't translated into a strong Monday open as investors turned more cautious, focusing once again on the problems facing the global economy. Though growth in the U.S. is holding up well, it is slowing in China. The 17 country Eurozone remains in recession and unemployment there has been hitting a series of record highs.

On Investor's Minds:
United States - homegrown terrorists
North Korea - an agent for China?
Europe - ITALY has a government. YEAH!
The FED - OMG do they know what they are doing?
May 19th – Debt ceiling suspension expire

Every Success,

Today's Video Update: Jobs Report Sends Market To All-Time Highs

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Jeremy Lutz here,  with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 3rd of May.

U.S. Employers Add 165K Jobs
U.S. employers added 165,000 jobs in April, and hiring was much stronger in the previous two months than the government first estimated. The job increases helped reduce the unemployment rate from 7.6 percent to a four-year low of 7.5 percent.

The Labor Department report is seen as a reassuring sign that the U.S. job market is improving despite higher taxes and government spending cuts that took effect this year.

The government revised up its estimate of job gains in February and March by a combined 114,000. It now says employers added 332,000 jobs in February and 138,000 in March. The economy has created an average of 208,000 jobs a month from November through April  above the 138,000 added in the previous six months.

Today's Video Update: What's Going To Kill This Bull Market?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 1st of May.

Fed Reports at 2pm ET
Today at 2pm, the Fed will announce its intentions with its bond buying program. I am expecting the Fed's decision will remain pretty much unchanged.

What's Going To Kill This Bull Market?
I would not expect to see any groundbreaking news coming out of today's Fed announcement. However, the Fed is going to be the one that kills this improbable bull market. It would appear that most people are still not sure the economy is good and corporate America is certainly on that same band wagon. Corporate America has cut expenses to the bone and we don't believe they're going to have any more room to cut costs. Any future growth is going to have to come through growing profits, which is at the moment, a difficult proposition. Thank goodness for technical analysis and our Trade Triangle technology, which has captured most of the move in the indices and major stocks.
