About market, TAPE is following oil when its sharply lower, all indices are below 50 DMA again where it has stayed in 4 out of 5 days for S&P 500, not a good technical pattern. 2015 is not starting out on good footing, we may slump lower and test support from few days ago. Weakness should be used to evaluate your own stocks performance, some may be near support or oversold, no hasty action needed then.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell

There will be a closing BLOG only on Tuesday, i am busy with some chores during the day.

Hey Saleem,

With futures nicely up and oil down again, maybe we've finally broken that link! :)

Hi Stocktrader,

Only when oil is down 4 percent then markets reacts sharply negative.

Today 50. Cents down does not cut it.
