Clinched SELL S9 vs Santa Claus Rally
The futures have turned up at this point and no longer show a
weak opening. Weakness may still
break the recent support at 11760 on the DJI. Not many
stocks look as bullish as LQDT below...
Instead, many MINCP stocks show heavy red distribution and
Closing Power new lows.
That suggests to me the odds are good the DJI will need to test its 10
week price uptrend-line
at 11539 in the next few trading days. I think we have to be
buyers of DIA there because of the bullish
Santa Claus period we are about to enter. On the buy side, I
would stick with defensive stocks or DIA.
If there is no more pullback on Monday, we will
be buyers on Turesday. What could spark a rally?
Successful peace
talks in Aghanistan, for one thing.
Not enough stocks loook like this.
Too many stocks look like this.
The DJI keeps selling off from its daily highs but refusing to close
below the 21-day ma
Clearly there are buyers who expect a Santa Claus rally. The
problem is the Sell S9
signal will not be satisfied until the lower band is reached. I
have found the best time to
buy based on the Santa Cluas rally's 89% probability of producing a
rally is at the close
of December 17th or the next trading day. Monday will be
the 19th. The avg gain for
the following 10 day is 1.7% going back to 1965. The odds as
better than 3:1 that the
DJI will be higher 10 trading days forward. What do we do?
Our Stocks Hotline is
hedged with 5 long positions and short 7. I think we have to
cover the general market ETF short
sales on Monday or Tuesday because of the 3:1 probability generally of
a rally until after
Christmas. Hopefully, we will see a DJI decline to 11600 to do
that.. That should be a good entry point for
buying DIA. Our Stocks' Hotline is still short more stocks than
we are long. Let's see what
Monday brings. Notice the Hotline will be at a new location
Monday night.
There have been 4 December Sell S9s.
December S9s' Aftermaths
1957 The DJI rallied to 12/31/1957 and then fell below the lower band
1982 The DJI fell immediately from the S9 on 12/7 to the lower band on
12/15/1982 and rallied.
1999 The
DJI fell only to the 21-day ma on 12/17/1999 and then rallied to the upper band
on 12/28/1999 for another Sell S9
and then declined quickly to the lower band on 1/4/2000
before rallying quickly again to
the upper band and beginning a big sell-off.
2007 The DJI fell from the
12/7 Sell S9 to just below the 21-day ma on 12/18 and rallied
2.5%
and formed a right shoulder on
12/26 in a head/shoulders pattern. It then sold off sharly, breaking the
lower band on 1/4/2000.
Which Side Will Win? US Professionals or the Overseas Buyers?
The
market now is like a tug of war. The Europeans and the Public are busy
buying over-night and at the opening. But the
NY Professionals and US institutions
are selling the market off during the day. The
Sell S7 below shows this condition.
Usually Professionals win out. But they could
change their mind because of the
seasonality. A strong close would show the
Professionals are betting on a Santa
Claus rally. On the other hand, a very weak
opening would probably mean that
the Europeans have switched to the sell side and the
Santa rally will be postponed.
The SP-500 is trying to hold up at its rising 65-day
ma.
Which side is stronger depends on the circumstances.
though nornally it
is the Closing Power. But it does depend
on the times. Which slide blinks first?.
When there's a lot of Public speculation (as from
1997 to early 2000) or
when Europe is in grave trouble (as now), then
Opening Power is probably
stronger. When the Public is not in the
market and Europe is quiet, Closing Power
is much stronger and its trend will identify the real
price trend. What is important
now is to see that Professionals are not loyal to a rising or a falling market trend.
What differentiates their behavior from the public is
they are pragmatic "survivors", not
ideologues. They switch gears (as to the expected market direction) suddenly and
buy instead of sell because they believe there is
more potential on the upside.
This is apt to happen soon now because of the
exceptionally strong seasonality of the market
these coming two weeks, which they know to accept,
anticipate and not to fight.
at least until early January, when they can better
assess the influx of investment funds
for the new year.

Clinched SELL S9 vs
Santa Claus Rally
There are few good technical signs now, but a Santa Claus Rally is
a very real factor now. See the studies in the last few Hotlines here.
The average gain for the DJI is 1.6% over the next 10 trading days,
going back to 1965. The DJI was up 77.8% of the time.
Saturday will be December 17th, the
day when Peerless
used to give a Santa Claus Buy signal. That signal was
dropped because some of the paper losses were too
great. Still, as you can see from our recent Hotline
studies, this is the time of the year when a rally usually
starts if the DJI is below its 21-day ma. The DJI is now
slightly above that ma. As the 17th falls on a Saturday this year
any additional decline would put the DJI in a zone where
below the 21-day ma, where we should probably do some
covering, including the recommended shorts on DIA, SPY and SDS.
In deference to the Santa Claus rally
traditition and how shallow
declines are from December 15th to December 31s, we will cover
many of our short sales on any further weakness by 1% or if their
CLosing Power downtrends are violated.
Three nights ago I showed the low points of the DJI relative to the 21-day
ma in the second half December. There were 27 cases where the DJI
dipped to or below the 21-day ma in mid to late December after 1940.
Buying 3% or more below the 21-day ma would have been possible in
only 8 cases. Buying 1.5% or more below the 21-dma would have been
possible in 13 cases. Buying 1% or more below the 21-day ma could have
been done in 18 cases. Another way of saying is that waiting for more
than a 2% decline would have worked out well in only 9 times: in 1972, 1975,
1980, 1983, 1991, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000. That is just once in the last 10
years.
I conclude that we can't count such a deep decline. It will be most consistent
with past dips at this time of year to cover on any 1% weakness or on a close
below the 21-day ma next week.
Breadth was good today. There were nearly 800 more up than
down on the NYESE. See the A/D Line chart below.
The A/D Line did turn up in vicinity of its 13-week uptrend.
While the Tiger Closing Power remains in a downtrend, it looks
oversold (far below its 21-dma) and the Openings have been up
very strongly. See the second chart below. I would think that Openings
will remain strong as long as the EURO remains quiet. Remember:
politicians usually go away for the next two weeks. That also means
that Congress will likely agree to a compromise to keep the government
running.

12/14/2011 I see no reason to cover our short
sales yet. ASell S9 usually brings a decline
to the lower band. The A/D Line uptrendline going back to
Septmber was violated today
and the CLosing Powers are declining. The bearish MINCP stocks
have been weak, some
spectacularly. The decline seems likely to tag the price
uptrendline that now crosses at 11511.92.
The failure of the DJI to even reach its declining resistance line near
12600 on th elast rally
is bearish until the 11400-11500 is successfully tested. The
P-Indicator and V-Indicator are
clearly negative. The only buy signal we can get on this weakness
is an old, no longer used
Peerless Buy on December 17th. The Santa Claus Buy signal.
This, I should add is less trustworthy
after a Sell S9.
Can Santa Claus be counted on this year?
The B17 takes place on the first such occurrence between December 17th
and December 24th
where the DJI closes below its 21-day ma. (CL/MA <1.0 )
Below are the statistics of Santa Claus B17s. Cases where the DJI is in
a generally uptrending
markets avoid most of the serious losses, but not that of 2007.
If the presence of a recent Sell S9/S12
is factored in, the failed 2007 Santa Claus B17 would be over-ridden.
But using that rule would
mean we get no Buy B17 this year, because of the recent Sell S9.

Though this signal usally works out,
there are some very big paper losses. The biggest being
the 10%-11% losses in emerging bear
markets in 2000 and 2007. Where there have been
multiple Sells in a trading range after a
long advance, we have to be a bit leery of Santa Claus
B17s. That would seem to apply to
2011.

A decline to near the DJI's lower band now would first require
the DJI closing more than
100 points lower to break its 21-dma. The DJI today closed
right at its 200-day ma.
Since that moving avererage is flat, I would not think it will act as
much support.
The NASDAQ is weaker. It broke its rising 65-day ma support
slightly today.
The NASDAQ will need to recover strongly tomorrow to convince bulls
that Santa
will save them from the Grinch S9.
For now, I would be mostly short,
including DIA or SPY, and wait for the key ETFs'
CLosing Powers to break their downtrends to cover in deference to
the seasonal Santa Claus rally,
which sometimes is delayed as late as the 23rd.
DJI for 12/12/2011
The DJI did nearly the worse thing it can do intra-day. It jumped
in the
first 30 monites and sold off considerably in the last two hours.
The
result was that the key ETFs Closing Power all made minor new lows
and set up Closing Power downtrends.
Most pundits blame this decline on Europe and American Bankers'
concerns
that Italy and Greece might not be able to pay back on its bonds,
especially with
Italy's present cost of borrowing now above 6%. Big US
banks have sold
large sums of Credit Default Swaps against this contingency.
Britain
has made matters worse for the banks by refusing to accept the
French-German demand that each EEC member accede to the Big EEC
Bankers effective control of each country's monetary and aggregate
fiscal
policies. The EEC bankers are essentially saying to each
countries'
voters, you can vote Conservative, Catholic or Socialist all you
want,
but we will fix your rate of interests and how much your
government
spends and taxes.
If there is a run on Euro, the consequences, though impossible
to predict
with any precision, might certainly include a freezing up of
credit and trade.
These are deflationary consequences. Gold and Silver declined sharply
today,
as a result. Food commodities
have been showing weakness for months.
Today showed that Bond holders
love deflation and a weak stock market.
There is a bullish aspect to all this, and that is your Dollars
are worth a little
bit more. The Dollar
broke out to the upside today, And interest rates
fell.
Although the FED did not do more at its meeting today to pump more
liquidity
into the market, the strong Dollar gives it more leeway in
the future to do that.

But at least, Obama is not choosing to
escalate this incident into a causus belli. The stock market
is always spooked by a run-up to war. Obama's lack of response may
suggests that he DOES expect to
wind down his war in Afghanistan. This will be tricky.
Will There Be A Repeat of 1973-1974?
The stock market fell 45% in 1973-1974, partly because of the defeat of
the US in Vietnam.
History could repeat. Afghanistan
has cost 1732+ American soldiers'
lives and
$471+
billion, narrowly calculated. Adding in Iraq makes the scale of the war in
Vietnam comparable.
The Obama Administration has made tragic mistakes that even a casual reading
of Afghanistan
history and the failed imperial invasions by the British and Soviets should
have prevented.
Add to that, it's easy to see how much greater the benefits to America would
have been if even half
this money was spent domestically on education, health care, mass transit,
infrastructure repair.
Will Obama be challenged on this? Obama must think Republicans will
not. Hubris alone could
cause Obama to fail terribly, as Nixon did. But we see now also an even
stronger military-industrial
complex, unchecked corporate power and a thoroughly stalemated political
system. It's hard to be
optimistic this December. The Sell S9 will probably be profitable.

Lesson of the 1930s:
AUSTERITY IS DANGEROUS! Paul De Grauwe - Centre for European Policy Studies Incredibly, the same mistakes are being made today involving some of the same countries as during the Great Depression. This time it is the continental west European countries tied together in the eurozone that have seen their currency, the euro, become strongly overvalued. The two countries that in the 1930s responded to the crisis by devaluing their currencies, the US and the UK, have today also allowed their currencies to depreciate significantly. Since the start of the financial crisis, pound sterling has depreciated against the euro by about 30%. After having strengthened vis-à-vis the euro prior to the banking crisis of October 2008, the dollar depreciated against the euro by close to 20%. Thus, as in the 1930s, the dividing line is the same. The US and the UK have allowed their currencies to depreciate; the continental European countries tied into the euro area have allowed their currency to become significantly overvalued. Even the numbers are of the same order of magnitude. During the1930s, the overvaluation of the gold bloc currencies amounted to 20-30%. Today, the euro is overvalued by similar percentages against the dollar and the pound. So why are the euro area countries employing the same policies as the gold bloc countries did nearly eighty years ago? The answer is economic orthodoxy. In the 1930s it was the orthodoxy inspired by the last vestiges of the gold standard. Today the economic orthodoxy that inspires the ECB is very different, but no less constraining. It is the view that the foreign exchange market is better placed than the central bank to decide the appropriate level of the exchange rate. A central bank should be concerned with keeping inflation low and not with meddling in the foreign exchange market. As a result the ECB has not been willing to gear its monetary policy towards some exchange rate objective. As in the 1930s, the euro area countries will pay a heavy price for this orthodoxy. The price will be a slower and more protracted recovery from the recession. This will also make it more difficult to deal with the internal disequilibria within the eurozone between the deficit and the surplus countries. |
Technicals
The DIA could not
get past 122; it will likely have to test its rising 65-dma support at 115.
Note how the DIA marginally made a new CLosing
high but the Closing Power lagged
considerably and then broke it uptrend.
This is a reliable trading Sell.
SPY's
CLosing Power made a 2 month low far ahead of price. This yields a CLosing Power
Divergence Sell S7. (Signals(3) + Closing
Power Divergence Warnings). SPY should be
shorted.
LEVERAGED SHORT SPY - SDS
Watch tomorrow to see if QQQ
breaks below the ususal support of its rising 65-dma.
That the optimized best trading system has
gained a whopping 81.% on the QQQ this

breakdown.
The Stock Market Does Not Like Uncertainty
Unanswered Questions about the Fate of the Euro:
Will the EURO survive? Goldman says "No". Morgan Stanley
says 20% probability.
Zero Hedge reports 50% chance by end of 2012.
What would be the consequences if it does
collapse? Would
loans dry up 50%? Would we see another liquidity crisis, as in 2008?
How would
that be resolved? What
central bank would guarantee banks or big loans soon again?
Would trade barriers
suddenly go up? Would
inter-nation European commerce dropsharply?
The Wall Street Journal downplays the dangers
now.
"A number of investors and bankers have
indicated that companies are hoarding liquidity and refraining
from making acquisitions to strengthen their
internal financing, rather than turning to banks....
In late November, Lufthansa said it would halt
all non-essential investment for six months to combat rising
financing costs, and on Wednesday Tognums
CEO told the Financial Times Deutschland the company
is increasing liquidity and hedging activity as
a preventive measure, to avoid the consequences of a potential
collapse of the euro zone." Source
How will America be
affected? The Dollar would soar? That
would badly hurt American exports.
Will America's biggest banks be hurt badly because
they have sold massive amounts of credit default swaps
on Italian, Greek, Spanish and Portuguese
government bonds.

SELL S9 versus Santa Claus
A January Top Is Most Likely
The Sell S9 Still Has Not Been Clinched.
The QQQ has been acting much weaker than the
DJI.
The cases of December S9s are too few to be super-confident of the Sell S9 right now..
Decembers tend (2 of 3) to bring support
and make bigger declines wait until the next year.
But 2007 showed we can't count on that.
Breaks in the A/D Line uptrend
and Opening Power uptrend, as well as
"clinching", have not yet occurred.
I suspect another big 8% to 12% decline
will not start in earnest until January.
After the new year starts, be very
careful. With Democrats in the White House,
the stock market most often shows first
quarter weakness.
Though waiting for the clinching (more than 15
down than up on NYSE at the close on the
day of the Sell S9 or on subsequent closes
until there is a reversing Buy) achieves
a higher price only 40% of the time compared to
selling on the S9, it is still possible
now for a price breakout above the flat 11250
resistance to occur. That would send prices
up smartly. Similar breakouts occurred in
June 1987 and February 2002 while S9s were
waiting for clinching. In 1987 prices
went 5% higher. In 2002 they rose 5% higher before
clinching.
Though the Opening Powers broke their steep
uptrends Wednesday, the Closing
Powers for the DIA and SPY rose slightly above
their declining downtrends and appear
to be at key pivot (or inflection) points where
they could spring either way. While we
wait, our Stocks' Hotline has taken twice as many short positions as long
ones among
the extreme and "bullish" CLosing Power
MAXCP and MINCP stocks.
Historically, the DJI tends to turn strongly up near
December 17th, by the end of next week.
It might seem that the Sell S9 is running out of
time. But in 2007, the DJI peaked on December 10th
and quickly formed a head/shooulders pattern in the
rest of December and then sold off badly.

There is another negative factor. That is the extent to which computerized
trading has produced the rally.
When you look at the SP-500 stock, you see how uniformly high all their tradin volumes
seem to be.
Computers are now tending to rush the stock market up a lot one day and then drive it down
the next.
This weakens the argument that breadth today was so good that we should wait.
All in all, we might want to wait for the Sell S9 to be clinched. But the case for
this is not so clear
or one-sided. Accordingly, we will take five or six Bearish MINCP Stocks short positions tomorrow
and sell most of the long positions in the Bullish MAXCP Stocks we own.
The shadows from
the December 2007 experience are still too dark. It may be that the decline will be
only a short-term
one, perhaps just to the rising 21-day ma of the DJI. But we have CLosing Power on
our side. And that
the CP downtrends now suggest Professionals have turned bearish, as does the relatively
high number
of MINCP stocks and low number of MAXCP stocks. .

Peerless Multiple Buy
Signals versus 12000-12200 Resistance
December is Reliably Bullish, especially before a Presidential
Year. But first, a pullback seems likely when the CLosing
Power uptrends are broken....
Before the month is out I would expect a challenge of the 12800 high. I do not expect
Obama to do anything to rock the
financial establishment to cause him to be the first
Democrat ever to bring a December marlet
decline in the year before the start of a
Presidential Election year. But
first, there may have to be a retreat when the Closing
Power uptrend (above) is
violated.... The Big Banks and Military stocks have done well
in this rally. Home repairs and
eating inexpensively have helped HD and MCD make
new highs. Seasonality is neutral
for the next two weeks and is then very bullish.
DJIA is at resistance and near the upper band.
The P-Indicator has turned negative
as the DJI approaches the upper band. The
NYSE A/D Line has slipped back from
its falling 21-day ma. The number of stocks
that Professionals are
pushing to new highs has fallen considerably below the
number they are forcing down.
Year-end tax loss selling works against these stocks.
In the chart above, you can see Peerless recently gave a Buy B12. More volume
is
probably needed to get the DJI past the
12000-12000 resistance. But the selling is not
aggressive. Watch IBM. As the
highest priced DJI stock by far, it has much more
power tp move the DJI. Right now ,
at the old highs its Accumulation Index is negative
(showing institutional distribution) and
it shows much more Public than Professional
Buying.
A B12 is at this stage in a 30 month
advance (as opposed to when it is ending a bear market)
considered much less powerful. In
the present case, it is based on only two really good
breadth days. which is something the
ubiquitous computerized buying can easily
produce in an era of Fed guaranteed low
intrest rates. What is less sure is that
this buying will be sufficient to reverse
the many downtrends in non-dovident,
secondary stocks and get the DJI past all
the resistance overhead. Add to that,
B12s have not been very powerful
recently. The Buy B12 does make it harder to get
a Peerless sell signal for the next two
weeks, after which point a bullish Santa
Claus rally usually occurs. We will
tell you if a Sell Signal would be given here if the
B12 is taken out of the picture.
Foreign, Chinese and Financial stocks
have been among the weakest groups until the recent
rally. I would still prefer to buy
selected Biotechs because their trend has been up all year.
The 18 stocks that make my BIO2 group
which is charted below are ACOR, ALXN, AMGN, BIIB, CELG,
CPHD, GILD, ILMN, JAZZ, MYL, XVNT,
TEVA, VRTX, CRUS/ I recently added BMRN, ITMN
and REGN because the Fidelity Biotech
Fund (FBIOX) has been positions in them. A
new high in this
group would certainly be bullish.

The DJI's downtrending resistance line is at 12200s.
This is also where the 3.5% upper
band is. Today's volume rose sharply. It will need to stay
high to eat up the overhead supply
of stock up to 12800 on the DJI. But the good news is
breadth was so good it brought a
Buy B12. In on-going bull markets, B12s average aboout
8% gains in the DJI before being
reversed. Here that would mean a run to 13000. Buy B12s
do suppress some Peerless Sell
signals at the upper band for two weeks. So 13000 is a
possibility. Do not
underestimate how many stops the Administration and the Fed will
pull out to ramp the market up
before the 2012 Presidential Election Season begins.
Decembers in the Year were up 69%
of the time since 1966. How strongly up depends in
part on whether it was the Year
just before A Presidential Election Year. As we political
cynics might expect, Decembers in
the year before a Presidential Election rose 20 times
since 1915 and fell only 4 times,
each while a Republican was President. Obama would become
the first Democratic President
since before 1900 to allow the DJI to fall in December if he
did not do all he can to keep the
current rally rising.

PEERLESS
BUY B1 YESTERDAY.
I think we have to believe the
Peerless Buys, the bullish seasonality and the breaks in
the steep Closing Power downtrends. With
B1s there is a 40% chance of a new
low about 3% lower than yesterday's
close. Hold current long positions. I would "bank"
on the Fed doing all it can to
protect the big US banks from suffering another financial
collapse. They will do this
behind the scenes as much as possible, to avoid becoming
the center of political contention
in a Presidential Election year. They know that a rising stock market
tends to silence critics.
Accordingly, I still think December may surprise the many bears.
Hedging by shorting BAC, GS and JPM
is suggested if the EURO makes a new closing low below 1.31.
See the chart further below.
The DJI futures are only
down 36 at this writing...
There is more and more evidence
pointing to US big banks' writing enormous sums of
credit default swaps on European
debt. To do this they borrowed hundreds of billions from the
Federal Reserve at an interest rate
just above 0%. The Federal Reserve loaned them these vast
sums with no restrictions, such as
that the money had to be used to make loans in the US
rather than back the EURO.
The Euro seems to me a losing proposition. The poorer regions
need fiscal and monetary
independence, by my reckoning; so that their currency's decline will boost
tourism and their exports, thereby
providing a self-correcting mechanism. The banks who
have loaned them a trillion Euros
cannot stand this idea. So, the taxpayers in northern Europe
and the US are being positioned to
again bail out the big banks. My belief in the inevitability
of the collapse of the current Euro
is held by many others. Predictably, the mainstream media
in the US has close to no clue
about the connection between the Euro's potential collapse and
what it will mean for the US.

Weakness in the Euro to the
point of a new low below 1.32 will likely bring another drop
by US banks. At some
point, they could again become insolvent. Even Congress may not dare to
bail them out again.
The bailout will likely come from the Federal Reserve. Nothing prevents this.
And nothing now requires the
Fed to be transparent.

A lot of traders, including us, would prefer to just wait for the
market
to stop falling to buy. A breaking of the Closing Power
down-trendlines
should give us a good entry point. If you want to be more
conservative.
wait for now for the NYSE A/D Line to break its trend.
Many
institutions will sit on the sideline now until the DJI gets back
above either its 65-day ma or its 200-day ma. My back-testing
suggests we can be more aggressive. Our Hotline has remained safely
hedged with almost as many bearish MINCP short sales as long
positions. But we should now cover some of these to
lock in nice
profits... Consider buying now stocks with big bulges of
Accumulation,
rising relative strength and Tiger major Buys (B10, B12, B20 and
B24) will get us into stocks that have the highest chance for
big gains when the market does turn up. Study the case of VRUS,
which has just been bought out. Other biotechs may
follow.
See the Bullish MAXCP Stocks for some other ideas. Here are the
charts
of Biotechs showing recent
high Accumulation. When their CLosing
Power downtrends are broken, they should advance nicely.
History is Bullish
I tried
to show Thursday that late November and early very December very often
bring very good rallies. In fact,
since the establishment of Thanksgiving on the
fourth Thursday of November in 1939, the DJI
has reversed in 41 of the 72 years
in the last two week of November and the first
week of December. In only 12 cases,
did it keep on declining past December 7th.
the bad news is that so much weakness
as we are now seeing, a DJI drop more than 5%
below the 21-day ma, is associated
with bear markets in the next year.
The breaking of the 65-day with a positive or nearly positive Accumulation
Index,
however, is also a bullish factor. I finished a study this weekend showing that In a
rising market environment since 1929 at this
time of year, having either a P-Indicator
above -64 or the current Accumulation Index
(IP21) above -.034 on the breaking
of the 65-day ma is much more likely to set up
a bottom than bring a further decline.
See http://tigersoft.com/PeerInst/65dma-penet-down-nov.htm
In our case, the IP21 was .001 on the day of
the breakdown. Here are the earlier cases
where the IP21 was between -.034 and +.035 and
the DJI was not in an on-going bear
market.

PEERLESS REMAINS ON BUYs.
NEW
Buy B5 but
the DJI has broken below the lower band
and the 65-day ma support on the day before
Thanksgiving.
Before
there can be a good rally, the market must stop opening
much lower most mornings. 6 of the last 8 openings have
seen the
DIA open down. This is
European and Asian selling mostly. A world-
wide recession and the floundering of the EURO are the apparent
causes. But there may be more negatives that have not hit
the
news.
Something is seriously wrong!
(See the mid-day comments for 11/23/2011
below to see some of the worries confounding the market.)
Fortunately, our Accumulation Index is still
positive, using
estimated data.
(Dial Data has not yet given us Tueday's official Up and Down
volume.)
The good
news is that seasonally a market bottom is very often made
in the last two weeks of November and the first week of December.
This took place in 41 of the 72 years cases since 1939. Most of the other
years did not have any pullbacks at this time.
Declines which lasted
longer were very rare. On average, these longer lasting,
deeper
declines occurred only 1/7 of the time. So, the odds favor
a recovery
by December 8th, and most likely much sooner.

The bad news is that the DJI is
extraordinarily weak given the bullish
seasonality. The market is warning that there is more bad news coming
this way. A deeper world recession? Bank failures and bailouts? A new
war...
with Iran? Violent repression of 99% protestors? All the above?
The day before Thanksgiving has
been down only 19 of 70 times
since the fourth week of November was made a holiday. The
2.05% decline Wednesday was the biggest decline ever on the
day before Thanksgiving. In each
of the cases where there was
a 1%-2% decline the day before Thanksgiving a very tradeable
bottom was being made to a significant peak in the second week
of January. This seems like a
reasonable scenario now, but I would
stay
short some of the bearish MINCP stocks now until the major market
ETF's Closing Power downtrend-lines are broken above. An opening
down more than 100 will get us to add some additonal shorts to the
Tiger Stocks' Hotline.

11/23/2011
Mid-Day Notes on continued decline:
DJI down 198...Our Stocks' Hotline is
still short 5 stocks. We are long 7.
The current Buy B5 does have an average
paper loss of 2%, but it is
reliable, never having failed ultimately. I will consider what
might be a fail-safe here if we see more weakness.
Apparently, just too many worries for the
market today...
"Data showed Chinese manufacturing shrank the most in 32 months in November,
intensifying concerns about a global economic slowdown. U.S. crude oil fell 2.6 percent on
fears of reduced demand from China, the world's No. 2 economy. U.S. data painted a
mixed
picture and showed little reason for optimism. New unemployment benefit claims rose last
week
and consumer spending barely increased in October." Source
Today's breaking of the 65-dma on a day when there is ordinarily an
up-day is of high concern. The speed downward of the 10-day decline
is also a danger-sign here. The Closing Power's continued falling and the
NASDAQ H/S minimum downside objective being still lower are bearish.
It is never good when both the Opening and CLosing Power are falling, as now...
Not to mention bad policy choices made by European bankers and
their political appointees on behalf of the hundreds of million people
in the name of the Common Market. Europe's austerity-in-a-recession policies
are exactly those pursued in 1930-1931 in the US and Europe.
Or the absurdity of demanding that all European countries have the same
monetary policy. The EURO will have to go sooner or later...
Or the fiscal stalemate in US.

NEW
BUY B5 but The Futures are down 100 at this writing.
I would cover half of the short sales
taken recently and buy some of the MAXCP
stocks for a seasonal recovery from the
rising 65-day ma tomorrow. If you prefer to wait
for a close above the opening to turn the
Tiger Closing Power UP on a test of the 65-day
ma, that's fine. But remember
that the market usually rallies the day before Thanksgiving.
Since 1966, the DJI has rallied 60% of
the time over the two weeks following November 23rd.
Consider buying some of the very

as your guide when to sell. ASPS,

But the QQQ and NASDAQ broke below
their Head/Shoulders
Pattern's
neckline. The NASDAQ has further to decline to
fulfull its minimum downside
objective.
The DJI has now tagged the lower 3.5%
band. There was no Buy B9 today
because
the V-Indicator is
quite negative (-104). Buy
B9s typically occur at the the lower band with
the P-Indicator and
Accumulation Index nearly or actually positive.
(See the History of Buy B9s table at the bottom
of today's hotline.) I
believe it was in 2002
when we decided to add
the additonal requirement that the V-Indicator not be be
below
-70.... If this requirement had not been added, Peerless users might have
been trapped in long
positions in the two months leading up to the sell-off from
the 9/11/2001 terrorist
attacks. The V-Indicator stands now at -104. There are two
cases from October 2004
where a Buy B9 was allowed with this low a reading,
based on the frequency
with which rallies occur from an October low in a Presidential
Election year. In
this case, it took a week of basing at the lower band before the
DJI could reverse and
rise.
In the present case, without a Peerless Sell signal and without a
head/shoulders top
in the DJI, the history
of the 7 NASDAQ completed head/shoulders patterns
back to 1988 tells us
to expect the lower 3.5% band to hold for the DJI. That was true
in all the older
cases. The DJI is there now.
So, there may still be a good recovery
starting tomorrow, if turnaround-Tuesday
and Thanksgiving week
live up to their reputations. If this is to be so, we should
this week see the NYSE
A/D and Closing Powers break their down-trends-lines.
Notice that the DJI is
back to a rising 65-day ma and the QQQ's CLosing
Power has fallen back
to a 2 month uptrendline. Unfortunately, the NASDAQ has
not fallen down as much
as its head/shoulders pattern sets up as a minimum
downside objective.
See its chart further below. The NASDAQ will likely stay weak
a little longer, even
as the DJI recovers...
NASDAQ
History of 50 Buy B9s 1928-2011 Note that the V-Indicator can only be estimated before 1966.

But the QQQ and NASDAQ broke below
their Head/Shoulders
Pattern's
neckline. The DJI is
expected to find support at the
lower 3.5% band at
11531, 265 points below today's close.
More stocks look like
good short sales than good purchases
in my weekend's review.
There are twice as many bearish MINCP
stocks as bullish MAXCP
stocks, showing professionals are
more bearish than
bullish. The Closing Power up-trend
breaks have been
replaced with CP downtrends. More weakness
until closer to
Thanksgiving is expected. We are short more stocks
than long now on our
Stocks' Hotline.
The DJI has not formed a
head/shoulders pattern or given a Sell, but the NASDAQ
has completed a
bearish head/shoulders pattern. Since 1989, there have been
8 earlier cases
like this. The NASDAQ fell from 2% to 10% further in the aftermath,
in 7 cases.
In one instance, the H/S breakdown proved false for. The DJI was
another story.
In half the cases, shorting the DJI would have produced a loss.
The gains from
short sales would have been modest, 2% to 5%. In the other cases,
short sales would
have produced losses, most of them substantial. See the details
in Thursday's
hotline.
DJI 11600 appear to be next support,
going down.
The DJI tends to
find support 2.5% to 3.5% below the lower band. It is now 1.3%
below the 21-day ma (corrected) and shows a very positive current Accumulation
Index
(+.09). I would think any weakness early next week will give us a new
Peerless
Buy and a good chance for a rally later next week, as is the custom
around
Thanksgiving.

But the QQQ and NASDAQ broke below
their Head/Shoulders
Pattern's
neckline. This strongly suggests a testing of the DJI's
lower band. In addition, we saw
today the breaks in the NYSE
A/D Line uptrend and its congruent,
well-tested NYSE price
uptrend. Appreciate the
bearishness in such a pattern, even
without a Peerless Sell signal.
See the discussion of this below
in the last few hotlines.
We can see the track record of
bearish head and shoulders
patterns in the NASDAQ should be
respected. Here are the
cases since May 1988.
Except once in 2010, when a head and shoulders was completed in the NASDAQ
and Peerless
was still on a BUY
signal, the DJI never fell below the lower band. The downside gains
gotten by selling on
the neckline penetration were much greater for the NASDAQ than the DJI.
The declines also
lasted longer for the NASDAQ. It took a while to repair the technical damage
on its charts,
There were 8 cases from 1988 to 2010 where the NASDAQ:completed its
head/shoulders, the DJI
did not and there were no Peerless automatic Sells.

DJI and Peerless Signals -

REMAINS ON BUYs. The QQQ's Head/Shoulders
Pattern has
lost some symmetry. But a QQQ or NASDAQ close
below below its neckline at 56 would

head/shoulders pattern.
Appreciate the bearishness in such a
pattern, even without
a Peerless Sell signal.
The Closing Powers and the NYSE A/D Line are sitting
on their uptrends. Tomorrow
should be an
important day. It could be a violent day, too. It occurs when protestors
around the world
are preparing their biggest demonstration against the excesses, fraud
and misuse of
political power by the world's Financial Elites. The demonstrators are "mad as
hell" at
apparent police brutality (a NYC
Councilman was knocked to the ground by the
Police
two blocks from the Park Sit-In, bloodied up and held 16 hours in jail without
being
allowed to make a phone call). The demonstrators are growing frustrated because
NY Mayor Bloomberg one of the richest men in the US),
Congress (most of
whom are millionaires) which now enagage in insider trading
with impunity and
the President (whose candidacy got more money from Goldman Sachs
than anywhere
else) all show no inclination to prosecute Wall Street fraud crimes or
address the
protestors' central demands to level the political play field and provide the
number of jobs
needed to allow Americans a decent life.

If the head/shoulders patterns can be aborted by moves above their

play themselves out without a big decline, December should bring an
advance. In the years before a

is more suspect. The DIA's and QQQ's is
short-term bullish, but must be watched. A CP uptrend
violation coupled with a penetration of the CP 21-day ma would be bearish.
DIA restored its CP UPtrendline - Any close of more than 0.70 BELOW the Opening
will violate the new CP-uptrend. The CP is still above its rising
21-dma.
Opening Power uptrend has been restored.
SPY restored its CP uptrendline- Any close of more than 0.80 BELOW the Opening
will violate the new CP-uptrend. The CP is still above its rising
21-dma.
The Opening Power uptrend has been restored.
QQQ has a new CP Uptrendline
Any close of more than 0.24 BELOW the
Opening
will violate the new and tentative CP-uptrend. The CP
is only at its rising 21-dma.
This makes the new uptrend more suspect. The Opening Power uptrend has
been restored.
GLD restored its CP Uptrendline - Any
close 0.50 BELOW the Opening
will violate the CP
Uptrendline. The Opening
Power is back above its rising ma
PEERLESS REMAINS ON BUYs. The DJI faces the resistance shown
in the downtrending lines below. Support should still be
present at its rising 21-day ma at
11800. Its rising 21-day ma should act as support as long as it is
rising steeply and the DJI's
current Accumulation Index is very positive.
When the DJI is about 3% over the 21-day ma with the Accumulation Index a healthy +.154
and the P-Indicator (21-day ma of Advances - Declines) is very
positive, we usually see higher
prices. This is also true in mid-November in years before the
Presidential Election. See the study I put
together: http://tigersoft.com/Tiger-Blogs/11-11-11/index.htm
See the bullish case of 11/13/2003. Declines
to the lower band at this time of year are more likely to occur when
these two indicators are much
weaker: 11/11/1931, 11/13/1935, 11/17/1975, 11/16/1987. As I
write this, I see the Futures show
the DJI up +50. Don't forget to cover hedging short sales when
their Closing Powers break their
downtrend or the stock closes above the 65-day ma.
Focus next on the weekly DJI. In the chart below you can see how much better
the NYSE
A/D Line is now than it was in May-June
2009. You can also see that the DJI has gotten
back above its rising 52 wk ma. In
2008, it could not and the 52-wk ma was falling. Another
difference - the Accumulation Index now is rising
and above its 21-wk ma. Back in May 2008,
it was negative and below its falling 21-wk ma.
Since the August bottom, Professional ETF trading has
concentrated on the narrower DIA and
QQQ. The broader SPY (SP-500) and general IWM were hit with
more selling in the July-August
sell-off and are lagging in the upswing, though they are
participating.
DIA and QQQ are above their rising 52-week ma. They show a
very positive Accumulation Index,
unlike in 2008 when they both tagged and fell back from their
then falling 52 week ma while showing
negative Accumulation Index readings. SPY is now only
at its flat 52-week ma and shows a positive
Accumulation Index, unlike in 2008 when it tagged and fell back
from its then falling 52 week ma
while showing a negative Accumulation Index. IWM
(Russell-200) is still below its 52-week ma.

Closing Power (CP) Status Report: KEY ETF CHARTS:
The 3 major market ETF
Closing Powers broke their CP Up-trendlines Wednesday.
This is short-term bearish, though their CPs may
yet recover from their 21-dma.
DIA
broke its CP UPtrendline -
Any close of more than 1.45 ABOVE the Opening
will restore the CP-uptrend. The CP is still above its rising
21-dma.
Opening Power uptrend has been restored.
SPY CP Uptrendline broken -Any close of more than 2.32 ABOVE the

Opening Power uptrend has been restored.
QQQ broke its CP Uptrendline - Any close of
more than 1.58 ABOVE the

uptrend.
GLD's CP 3 days ago broke its steep
Uptrend - Any close 1.24 ABOVE the Opening
will break the downtrendline. The Opening Power is nack above its
rising ma
PEERLESS REMAINS ON BUYs. The futures appear to be rising.
So is the NYSE A/D Line and the DIA and
SPY CLosing Powers turned up from their rising 21-day
moving averages. Since 1965, the
DJI has risen 67% of the timne over the next two weeks
and 71% of the time over the next month.
The A/D Line is much stronger now, nearer its 12 month
highs, than before most tops. The
DJI does not show a head/shoulders pattern. However,
it needs to get past the resistance-line
not far above 12000 that keep stop rallies this year.
If it were to turn down and the rising
NYSE A/D Line uptrend were broken the DJI would look
like the end of 1947. In that year
and again in the following year, also a Presidential Election
Year, the DJI ricocheted up and down off
the top and bottom of a broad trading range, bounded by
165 and 190. I must add, that good
breadth, by itself, is not enough We also have to watch the
Accumulation Index. A close by the
DJI as low as 2.4% over the 21-day ma with the
Accumulation Index negative did bring an
11% decline in early 1948.
We still must watch the QQQ's head and
shoulders pattern. It neckline is at 46. Penetration
of this level will be bearish. The
QQQ's Closing Power did not turn up today. The QQQ's
relative strength continues to fall
versus the DJI. Tech stocks are being sold as a precaution.
That is weakening the P-Indicator and
Accum.Index, but not enough yet to produce a major Sell.

ABOVE the Opening
to restore the Uptrend of CP. The Opening Power is above its rising ma
PEERLESS REMAINS ON BUYs.
The ETFs' Opening Power penetrated their 21-day ma. The Closing
Powers
have not. The DJI has pulled
back to its rising 21-day with a still quite positive set
of internal strength readings.
Usually. without a Peerless Sell, such a rising 21-day
ma acts as reliable support.
A turn upwards by CLosing Power will be short-term
bullish because such reversals at
support are a positive development.
Seasonality is still bullish.
Since 1965, the DJI has risen 64% of the time over the
week after November 9th.
We try to remember to check the
individual DJI-30 stocks for ones that look bearish.
At this point not many show much
vulnerability. The bearish exceptions are:
1) BAC's weakness has little impact on the averages because it it is so
low priced
in an average that weights
components solely by price.
2) DIS shows a potential
Head/Shoulders pattern but the Accum. Index readings
are still too high to confirm this
pattern's bearishness.
3) GE does show a H/S Pattern with
negative IP21 readings on the right shoulder.
Its neckline is also where support
from its 65-dma support is. Watch it.
QQQ's H/S neckline support is now
at 56. The H/S pattern there can be redrawn to
be extant. A QQQ violation of
56 would be disturbing for tech stocks. The TigerSoft
Index of the 100 QQQ stocks shows
75 are still above the support of their 65-dma.
That is bullish.
Since 2007, the OPMA penetrations
have worked out well as short-term
sells about 58% of the time.
Closing Power MA penetrations are more reliable, giving
good trading sells about 67% of the
time. See study.

The DJI's round number 12000 resistance which was overcome these
last
two days will be tested as
support. The Closing Powers are rising but a sharply
down Opening will break the rising
Opening Uptrends.
. There should be support on this
weakness. The A/D Line is rising. The NASDAQ's
rally today should have aborted its
potential head and shoulders. Watch the
NASDAQ's neckline at 2600.
This is important support.
Many of the leveraged short ETFs show CP new lows with heavy red
distribution.
Normally, we would see divergences
before a bottom, but these instruments are
oversold. Watch their CP
downtrendlines. Breaks in them will be bullish these
leveraged short instruments.
They are due a bounce. Below is the exploded chart
of SQQQ, the leveraged short of
QQQ. You can see a jump at the opening will break
the falling Opening Power.
Bullishly Both Opening and Closing
Power Are Rising.
Severe weakness at the opening would break the rising
Opening Power trend. This will be hard for NY Professional
buying to overcome for a day or two.
NASDAQ support is at 2600.

Powers are rising again. We should
watch QQQ and the NASDAQ, which are falling a
little behind. These need to make
new clear new highs to destroy their potential
head/shoulders patterns. The QQQ
needs to close above 58.45. Though its
Opening Power is rising, it is the Professionals
and the QQQ's strong closes here that lie
behind the gain over the last 65-days. See
the text just below the Tiger chart for this
data on any stock shown. Nonetheless, the
QQQ's bearish pattern remains a technical
problem. The NASDAQ's right shoulder's
apex is exactly at 2700. A move above
that will be quite bullish for the secondary and
technology stocks. Watch the NASDAQ
closely tomorrow.
If the NASDAQ and the QQQ do not make new
recovery highs, the next DJI new high
may not be confirmed. The resulting
divergence could bring then bring a November decline.
For now, I would not turn bearish, apart from
doing some precautionary hedging.
Bullishly still, the the leveraged short ETFS
(shown at the bottom of the day's Bearish MINCP
Stocks)
show continued great weakness, which is being confirmed by very negative
Accumulation Index readings and falling Closing
Power trends.
Gold's rise still looks it will continue.

PEERLESS REMAINS ON BUYs.
A November peak
is still expected. Usually we see non-confirmation Sells or a head
and shoulder develop before a top is made that brings a
decline of 6% or more in the
DJI. These things are not present, yet. But
hedging by being long the most bullish
MAXCP stocks and some of the most bearish MINCP stocks is
available to us, too,
as a profitable strategy. As the year ends,
institutional window-dressing tends to
exaggerate the moves up and down already in place. As
long as both the Opening
and Closing Power are rising, I think we have to give more
chance for a rally above
12400. An Opening down more than 100 DJI points will probably break the rising
Opening Power trendline. See DIA chart below.
That would be disconcerting and
probably bring about another test of the DJI's rising
21-dma 283 points lower than
Friday's close. Such a weak opening will cause us to
wait for any new buying on
our Stocks' Hotline, where we are hedged.
Even so, it remains bullish that:
1) the DJI reversed so quickly from its steeply
rising 21-dma;
2) the NYSE A/D Line is in an uptrend;
3) the number of Closing Power new highs is 7x
the number of CP new lows in
the last two days;
4) there were so many different Buy signals recently
at the bottom of this move; and
5) the DJI is up 57.8% of the time over the next week
since 1965.
6) Both Opening and Closing Power are rising for DIA
(Buy B21 condition)
I like the fact that the DJI moved up beyond the top of its
price channel on its move above
12100 a week ago. A lot of time, the failure to reach
the top of a price channel or the upper
band becomes a setup for a bigger sell-off.
We will have to see the QQQ (below) surpass its recent
right shoulder apex at 58.25
to destroy its bearish head/shoulders pattern. The
broader NASDAQ and the DJI, SPY
and IWM all seem to have done this already.

I have
suggested hedging using the bearish MINCP stocks posted here while waiting for
the DJI to work off its extremely
overbought condition of last week. But, Buy DIA if its
CP breaks its downtrend. See DIA
chart below. A close more than
1.24 above the DIA's
opening will break the CP downtrend
tomorrow. Buying DIA when the CP and the
operative Peerless signal are in
agreement about trend is usually recommended.

------------------- Closing
Power (CP) Status Report: CHARTS:---------------------
The 3 major market ETF
Closing Powers show shallow CP Downtrendlines.
The ETFs' Opening Powers are mixed.
This is short-term
bearish, but the DJI is just above its rising 21-dma which should act as support.
DIA is now below a CP DOWNtrendline - It will only take a close of more than +1.6 ABOVE the Opening
to break the CP downtrend. The Opening Power today broke its
uptrend.
SPY is now below a CP DOWNrendline - It will only take a
close of more than +.46 ABOVE the Opening
to break the CP downtrend. The Opening Power is still
rising.
QQQ
is now below a CP DOWNtrendline - It would only take a close of more than
+.05 ABOVE the Opening
to break the CP downtrend. The Opening Power is still
rising.
GLD CP resumed Uptrend - It will take
a close of more than 0.61 BELOW the Opening
to break the CP UPtrend. The Opening Power broke its uptrend today an is below its
rising ma
PEERLESS REMAINS ON BUYs but we now
see CP Downtrends in DIA, QQQ, SPY...
I have suggested hedging while the DJI
works off its extremely overbought condition of last week.
I noticed that the number of MAXCP stocks rose
today increased. This should not be seen if Professionals
expect a deeper decline. The odds do favor a
rebound on another intra-day tagging of the 21-day ma
of the DJI at 11564, about 90 points lower. I
would expect the CP downtrend-lines to be broken
there and that will advise us of a bounce. The bearish MINCP stocks should not be covered in that event.
Aggressive traders may want to buy any of the major
market ETFs that break their CP downtrends.
Now the DJI has fallen back to within 1% of its
steeply rising 21-day ma with the current Accumm Index
very positive. An attempt at a rally should be
expected because
1) the DJI has tagged its 21-day ma,
2) this MA is rising at am annualized rate of more than 100% per year.
3) the IP21 is a very positive +.21 and
4) the OPct is above +.25
In addition, the P-Indicator stands at +511.
Usually the 21-day ma cannot be violated on the first or
even second decline when it is rising this fast and
the key Peerless internal strength indicators are this
positive.
Internal Strength Readings and Support at The 21-DMA
Below are the 36 cases where the DJI closed
within .8% of the 21-day ma while 21-day ma was rising at an
annualized rate (ANN-ROC) of more than 60%.
In 21 cases the DJI rallied at least 3% before falling 3%.
In 15 cases (red) the DJI fell to the lower
band.
There were 15 cases here where the ANN-ROC was
at least 70%. In 10 cases the DJI reached at least the
upper band before falling 3% or
more. (These show a green result.) 5 brought
declines to the lower band
first. A steeper slope and greater
momentum clearly favors a market rebound.
There were 17 cases here where the IP21
was above +.10. Nine (a slight majority) saw declines to the lower
band. I was surprised to see here that a
still higher IP21 did not improve the odds of a rally of at least 3%.
There were 16 cases here where the OPct was
above +.25. In 11 cases the DJI rose at least 3%
before it fell 3%. The current OPct is
+.262. This appears to be a more powerful factor here.
If we look only at the 4 cases where the
ANN-ROC was at least 67% and where the IP21
was at least +.14, we see 3 rallies to at least
the upper band amd one decline to the lower band.
This is probably closest to our current
situation.

The EURO has not been saved. The Greek PM will
let his people vote on the
austerity program demanded by the
European bankers. This bombshell came out after
today's close in NY. A
"No" vote would scrub the basis for the recent rally.
The "Troika" of lenders - the
European Union, International Monetary Fund and European
Central Bank - say Greece must take more
painful steps to cut its borrowing. But Greece
faces
riots and mass protests on the streets of Athens. The government could lose
its grip on parliament - only 155 of 300
MPs backed the last round of austerity in June
Banks

Greek

My view http://www.tigersoftware.com/TigerBlogs/April-28-2010/index.html
is that
Greece needs it own currency to sort out
its problems. Bankers demand a single
European wide currency to better control
debt issues everywhere on the Continent.
I would not bet on a "Yes" vote
in Greece.
See how the Closing Power are now in minor downtrends. It is never a good idea
to let
a nice profit get away from us. I admit that
the last two night's hotlines have not been
very loyal to Peerless. This is
because:
1) I
know that historically Peerless does not always give a Sell on a decline from an
overbought condition that brings a decline of 5%-6% to the lower band. There
are not a lot of these cases, but they might be studied by some enterprising souls.
In the last 45 years, there have been 29 such cases, about 1 every 18 months.
Such cases in Octobers are rare. But there were 8 instances in November.

Continuing: why limit our faith in Peerless
now?
2)
The good breadth now which Peerless heavily weights owes to the distorting
effect of the Fed's policies of low interest rates. My sense is the same as
Bernanke's,
namely in a very weak economy with little comsumer demand and high unemployment
that
monetary stimulus is not enough, especially when austere fiscal policies rule Europe.
3)
In addition, we know that the first two weeks of November are up only 51% of
the time
since 1965.
4) We
make the most money when Peerless is on a Buy and the Closing Power
trends are up. I would prefer to wait for that
combination again.
Financials were dumped today. Watch the
3x leveraged financial short fund (FAZ).
It held at support and its CP broke its
downtrend. That makes it a Buy if you disregard
Peerless, which traders can often profitably
do, if they are nimble.
Why are Professionals selling now? MF Global Holdings has filed for
bankruptcy.
This is the eighth biggest filing for
bankruptcy in US history. It has been compared with
Lehman Brothers in 2008. The MF fall-out
may get worse. Customers'
money is missing.
This could not come at a wrse time for Wall
Street, considering the growing support
for the Occupy Wall Street protestors.
In addition, Ex Dem Governor Corzine has been
linked to corruption in New Jersey in 2008.
Now it turns out he was its director when MF
gambled on high paying bonds of Italy, Spain
and Portugal as a way to bail out its miserable
proprietary trading record.

Is this a bear market rally, like occurred twice in 2000 with unsignaled drops
from the upper band to the lower band?
Breadth is much better now.
For that reason, I suspect the 11700
support or the 21-day ma will act as good
support and we will go higher after this
support is tested and holds.
In the circumstances, I have suggested traders
watch the CLosing Powers and
do some selling if the CP uptrends were broken.
That has occurred. Now there is a
CP downtrend for the major market ETFs.
My guess is that 11700, the point of breakout
a week ago, is likely now to be tested.
We hope and trust that will hold but
today's 2%+ decline was uncomfortably steep and
the recent rally did not turns the
21-day ma of Volume up. This is a warnig
that there will not be enough buying to
overcome the overhead supply of stock.
Our Stocks' Hotline has taken some profits, in
ALXN, IBM and HOG for example, and
we have gone short some of the bearish MINCP
stocks. I think I would take some more
hedging short sales.

PEERLESS REMAINS ON
BUYS.
The old 2006 Peerless would have just given a
Buy B4 breakout above the upper band.
The current Peerless has simply stayed on Buys
thoughout the 15% October rally.
While simple profit-taking at the opening seems
likelytomorrow, more important is what
happens the rest of the trading day.
Watch the Closing Powers and the ratio of
NYSE advances to declines.
Getting 7% above the upper band is much
more likely to bring additional gains
than a retrreat to the lower band, even
when we look just at only the cases where
the DJI was still below the 12 month
high. The odds of significantly higher prices are 7:2
judging from the 9 cases of this since
1945. I realize this is pretty amazing, considering
the news. But I would trust
Peerless over the Glen Becks of the world any day of the week.
The DJI has reached the minor resistance of the
broken July 2011 bottom. A minor
pullback should be of no surprise. Most
likely, after a shallow retreat it will then
rally and tag the declining resistance line
shown below at 12600 and then hesitate. Without
a Peerless Sell signal, we should expect that
level to be reached. However, volume
has not been so high as to lead us to think
that a breakout is imminent. A lateral movement
with a decline back to the 21-day ma seems a
reasonable guess as to what lies ahead.
I still think the top to this move will occur
in November with a late December rally again.
As long as the Closing Powers and NYSE A/D Line
trend are rising, we have to be short-term bullish.
The rally has taken many by surprise. They now
have to decide if conditions are bullish enough
to chase the rally. If the DJI does stall
out here and falls below the 21-day ma, there is a
danger that we will have seen just a last bear
market rally. But if this is the case, we should
first get a Peerless major Sell.
Let's Watch the 3x Short Leveraged ETFs for a Sign of A Reversal.
BGZ - Large Cap
Bear 3x new 12 mo low nut not this is not confirmed by the CP making a new low
or the Accum.
Index making a 2 month low. It remains on a Red Sell. The same is true for DOG -
the leveraged
Short on the DJI-30. The 3x Finnacial Bears is now testing the support at 36 from
its 12 months'
low in February. Much weaker looking are GLL (UltraShort on Gold) and FXP, the
UltraShort on the
Chinese-25. The UltraShort on the QQQ has made a 12 month low in prices,
but not CLosing
Power or red Distribution. It is also on a red Buy.
Exceptional Market Strength Is Usually Bullish.
Yesterday, the DJI
closed 7% over the 21-day ma without making a 12 mo high. This is highly
unusual. In 9
earlier cases, it was bullish and in 2 it was bearish. In 2 of the 9 cases, the DJI
went
into a consolidation
phase. In 7 of the 11 cases it was entering a rising phase in an on-going
bull market. Here
are earlier cases of this since 1945.
There were 8
cases of the the DJI being 6% to 7% over the 21-day ma without making a new
21 month high.
Only 3 of them produced a decline to the 21-day or lower.

------------------- Closing
Power (CP) Status Report: CHARTS:---------------------
The 3 major market ETF
Closing Powers broke their uptrend-lines. This is short-term BEARISH.
The ETFs' Opening Powers are still rising.
DIA BACK ABOVE a viable CP UPtrendline - It will take a close of more than .134 BELOW the Opening
to break the CP uptrend. The Opening Power is still
rising.
SPY BACK ABOVE a viable CP Uptrendline - It will take a close
of more than .2506 BELOW the Opening
to break the CP uptrend. The Opening Power is still rising.
QQQ
BROKE BELOW its CP Uptrendline yesterday - - It would take a close of
only .35 BELOW the Opening
to break the CP uptrend. The Opening Power is still rising. QQQ
is now weaker than the DIA.
The size of the advance today will almost certainly invite
some profit-taking. I have no problem
with that. You've made some nice money very quickly. The DJI has reached the
12000 objective
I suggested. This has all the appearances of a heavily manipulated advance using
leveraged
Futures and ETFs. See the massive blue Accumulation right at the bottom in many of
the leveraged
major market ETFs, as shown below in BXUB. (Yes, we
will certainly have to start watching
for these hugely bullish divergences in oversold ETFs' markets. They are all in
SECTORS.exe
on the Tiger Data Page.)
Will the market go still higher? I do not see any sign yet from the leveraged
bearish ETFs
that they have reached a bottom. In fact, quite a few are seen in the BEARISH MINCP
stocks. If the market were about to decline in a big way, these leveraged bearish
ETFs
might show the same levels of high Accumulation as they fall to their lower bands, just
as their opposite numbers (the leveraged bullish ETFs) did on October 3rd.
Watch Interest Rates
Why not let someone else assume some of the risks in buying now with the DJI back
above 12100 where all the trouble started? Interest rates may
be going up. See the
H/S pattern on leveraged 7-10 Year Treasuries. What if there is a FED revolt and
Bernanke cannot get his way in adding massive new sums of liquidity to the markets?
BANKERS ARE SMILING.
Bankers now seem happy that the
governments in Europe have provided tanglible enough assurances
that there will not be a wholesale default by the poorer countries on the Continent.
The real problem, namely
that a single currency does not meet the needs of smaller, weaker countries that would
benefit
from having their own weakened currencies to increase exports and tourism, is not even
discussed.
But Wall Street wanted any fix, even a temporary one. The EURO rose strongly versus the
now suddenly much weaker Dollar. That
has sent up Oil and Gold and, as a renewed inflation hedge,
the US Stock Market. The DJI rose more than +350. At the same time, shorts are
being stampeded
into covering. Nearly all
groups are participating, except Food Commodities.
The Closing Powers are rising again. And, reflecting European buying, the ETF's
Openings have been very
strong. The Opening Powers can be seen in the expanded (exploded) charts of the DIA, SPY,
QQQ
and IWM).
Most big investors are still unsure. New money is suddenly pouring back into defensive Utilities
(Look at the breakout there.) and the best Growth Reits as well as nearly all the
components of the
DJI (which overweights oil)
and the SP-500 (which has many financials).
The number of stocks making Closing Power new highs is 6x the number making CP new lows.
Professionals clearly are betting on still higher prices and have not switched to selling,
even though
the DJI is up 13.5% in three weeks.
Does The ETF Tail Wag The Stock Market DOG?.
The Importance of Positive Non-Confimations at the Lower
Band by The Accumulation Index
The broad American Public is not much in this market. The Wall Street Elite is
reviled in nationwide
demonstrations. Tea Party people reached a crescendo of gloomy pessimism just
as their
Congressmen refused to agree to higher US debt limits and caused US government debt
to be downgraded.. But once again, the market is doing what it does best, making a
mockery
of public sentiment. This is not accidental. With the Presidential Election
coming up next
year, the Ruling Triumverate (Obama Adm., the Fed and leading Wall Street banks) are
boosting
stock prices, perhaps, planning a new QEIII, new home owner loan protection and buying key
leveraged ETFs and major market futures. Professionals are buying even after prices
jump
at the opening from overseas demand. .
It is my contention that Insiders and Professionals planned the bottom of October 3rd.
Our charts
are the evidence. IMPORTANT: Look at the high levels of Accumulation right at the bottom
by many of the leveraged ETFs for the general market as they fell to their lower band.
These are classic
Tiger positive Non-Confirmations. See also how the Closing Powers failed by wide margins
to confirm
their lows, giving B7s. Clearly, there is
merit in studying these ETF charts on a more regular basis here.
. I
will soon start positing them, one for leveraged Bullish ETFs and one for leading
leveraged Bearish ETFs.
I can only do some of these. But I will try to post the ones telling an important
message.
Instead of buying individual stocks or unleveraged major market ETFs, we would have
done better buying these on 10/4/2011. Below are only a few examples.

PEERLESS
REMAINS ON BUYS
The markets are nearing levels of resistance. The DJI's 12000 level (140 points
higher)
is the one I think we have to
watch most closely. There was only a one-day retreat from the DJI's
and NASDAQ's 200-day ma.
I have warned the bears that nearly flat 200-day moving averages
are less powerful resistance
levels; I have emphasized the surprise element of this strong rally in
the normally spooky month of
October; I have showed that Seasonally, a November peak is more
likely than a top now.
And I mentioned that Gold has just turned up. Peaks usually occur
several
weeks after that happens.
These are positives that should allow us to trust Peerless a while longer.
There is rotation, though.
The QQQ is starting to underperform the DJI. Its RELDJI line
is rated as
"bearish". This represents cautious profit-taking in the more
volatile tech stocks.
Note the QQQ's optimal
trading system has given us a Sell and the best system has gained 57%
for the last 11 ten months.
Whenever we see results for the QQQ above 40%, we always put much
more trust in that system's
signals. Look at the QQQ chart again, these red Sells are sometimes
premature. So more of
an advance could certainly occur here. But the QQQ's CLosing Power uptrend
has also been broken.
And today, with the DJI up more than 160, the QQQ actually declined. This is
a bearish mis-step or
tripping by the NASDAQ bull. We probably should sell some of our QQQ stocks,
especially biotechs, when
they next break their Closing Power uptrends.
Let's if a Tiger Buy and
multiple insider buying spikes of Accumulation turn ACFN back up.
. .
With Peerless still on a buy,
our Stocks' Hotliue will moatly hold tight. No short sales
will be taken. Respect
the upwards momentum. The NYSE A/D Line is still rising nicely.
And the strength of the
Opening Power means that fears for the Euro may have been excessive
or, at least, premature.
AMZN and RIMM fell sharply today and help explain the QQQ
weakness...

PEERLESS REMAINS ON BUYS
PEERLESS
BUYS SHOULD KEEP US MOSTLY LONG
The urge to take
profits after a 12% DJI rally in 15 trading days was too much for the
Professionals and
others who sold with the DJI tagging the 200-day ma yesterday. As
a result, the major
market ETFs' CLosing Power uptrends were all broken and Gold turned
up sharply. A short-term retreat is now most likely. But, because Peerless has
not given a Sell
signal, the decline
should be shallow, though even a retreat now back to
the 21-day ma would
be by 3.4%. So
some profit-taking is justified in ETFs and stocks whose Closing Power
has been penetrated.
But, I would respect the very unusual size of the advance and still look
for higher prices into
early November. Gold has just started to rise again. The market
tends to top out only
after it has advanced a few weeks, I have observed.
SEASONALITY STATS:
Top in early November?
Then after Thanksgiving, a Rally to New Highs in December...
Money typically comes
into the market during the last few days of the month and the
first week of the new
month. That might help prop the market up despite the grabbing of
quick profits by the
nimblest here. Since 1965, the DJI has risen 67% of the time over
the next week and the
next two weeks after October 25th. These statistics are much less
rosy if we look at all
the years before a Presidential Election since 1931. In
these years, there
were 9 UPs and 11
DOWNs. Since 1967, late Octobers rose 7 times and fell only 4. But
Novembers fell 6 times
and only rose 5.
The
most imortant thing to appreciate from the data below is that in the years before a
Presidential
Election, the stock
market is nearly always higher at the end of December than it is on October 25th
(or the end of
October). A +3% to +4% would be an average gain in this period. The market
was higher in 16 of 20
cases. The only recent exceptions were 1987 and 2007. Late Octobers and
Novembers are a
problem. They are both more likely to see a decline than a gain. Strong
Decembers
do more than make up
for weakness in the late-October to Thanksgiving period.
