Move Upward Continues December 28, 2019

Dec. 27, 2019 – With a major holiday now complete and behind us, it will soon be time to get back to “business” in the world stock markets.  New Years is just around the corner and I still have this uneasy feeling that a new tax year may bring on a correction.  Long term, not much has or is likely to change; the FED with easy money and an election year (in the US) to boot.  The fact that the economy (in the US) has moved quite a lot in a short period of time may mean that next years opportunities will be more international as they play “catch up”.

As the chart above shows, it was a quite week.  Major indexes up about 1/2% and the “Q’s” up a little over 1% for the shortened week.  (click on chart to enlarge it)  I did move the near term support level up to 8934 on the NASDAQ Composite Index.  (That’s the low of the weekly bar where buying came into the market).  A break below that level and I’ll begin to hedge &/or go to Cash.

The stocks in the broad S&P 1500 Index  show similar strength.  There’s a fair amount of green & not much red in these pie charts; possible over extended markets.

That’s it for now.  Wishing all a Very Happy New Year & Good Trading in 2020 !          ……..  Tom  …….
