About market, TAPE was greeted with good news on Oil & Chinese stimulus but offset by very weak US economic data. By close we were @ low of the day. S&P 500 stayed above 50 DMA while Down & Nasdaq are below. TAPE looks stable relatively speaking and the bias looks UP. Keep your focus on stocks which are behaving well technically and should be on buy list.

Worst time to buy right now ?
CNBC has given us many sage like Carter Worth, Steve Grasso, they both have been making wild bearish comments, Carter Worth famous target of 1575 from 6 months ago and Grasso saying "worst time to buy right now"
It is interesting that most CNBC so called "pro" have been bearish for months, some have technical knowledge to draw a southbound line but Grasso cannot even draw a line......
Before the number to collapse from was 1940......
Then became 50 DMA...
Now it is 1950.....
As we are above 1940 & 50 DMA and went to 1962.96 as high of the day on Friday, cannot wait for next collapse number..
CNBC pundits needs an education of how to listen to the market....instead of talking to themselves?.we have come UP from 1810 to 1962 which 152 points or 8.40% gain, all in 10 trading days...IF that is not a strong TAPE, then what is a strong TAPE.I do not know why anyone will not only miss 8.40% gains in 10 days but lose minimum double of that IF they were short?
Back to market, it is so strong that it is making a "reverse head & shoulder in every major index"
This a rare occurrence which happens @ major market bottom.....
How far we can go with usual ups and down......the magic number is pointing towards a new all time high and series of new highs......
This TAPE requires conviction and selection of strong stocks.....
This is not a day traders market, IF we are going for series of new all time highs......
Many strong stocks are behaving solid and are ready to bust UP.
Because of China , Fed , oil and commodities slump, we had a very difficult start in 2016.....now, all that have been discounted for the most part, usual up and downs are OK in any TAPE.
SO...go back to your "non-CNBC drawing board" and see what looks good to you going forward.
Be diversified with reasonable weighting to participate in future upside.
Listening to TAPE instead of listening to a flawed logic is the right approach.
Weakness to be bought over and over until you are @ full allocation.
Good luck with your own logic and stock picking system.

Stock market & Oil ......
There has been a strange co-relationship with oil price movement and stock market direction.
Oil @ $29.64 on Friday is much better than low of $26.05, this is a move up of 13.78% from low.
Stock prices have also moved in the last 5 trading days.....
First we moved UP from 1810.10 to 1930.68 in 3 trading days, which was a move of 120.58 S&P 500 points or 6.66%....
On Thursday & Friday we gave up @ low of the day, 28.51 points or 1.48%.....
OECD has given its latest estimate of GDP growth, everything is revised lower, US @ 3% and Canada @ 1.5%......no recession @ all.
IF we look @ total picture worldwide, it is not a negative scenario @ all.
Gold is flying higher on renewed inflation which came in above target in USA....
Most traders were not sure of gold rising but now we know why it was going up as inflation is ticking up from wage growth to consumer items.
Inflation is good as companies are able to increase prices on their product & services.
What all of the above means for stock prices.....
I believe that we will slowly move higher from here....
Front line companies will move up faster than struggling companies.
It is important to be in strong stocks as there is lot of room for price appreciation.
Many strong stocks are selling near lower end of their old range, i expect them to be much higher and make new highs in a years time.
@ this stage of the market, it is important to have higher exposure when prices are low.
This week, market should move higher as oil may find support and move up from here.
Conviction & patience is key in a changing market condition, IF we are to move substantially higher as we go along, then you have lot of room to grow your portfolio and returns.
Good luck with your own homework and stock picks.

Oil rested today as pundits talk is on overdrive for oil production freeze agreement with Iran & Iraq, it is in everybody's interest to agree on managing oil prices and bringing stability to world economy. Today's pullback was orderly and many stocks bucked the trend, which is a sign of healthy TAPE. Internals were reflecting indices @ close. Conviction and diversification is a winning formula.

Are we all clear for a sustained rally ?
Since January of 2016 in S&P 500, we have gone down from 2081.56 to 1810.10, in 7 weeks we have lost 271.46 points or 13.04%.....IF you take this number in isolation, it is known as correction not a bear market.
Carter Worth is predicting 1575 in S&P 500...that is another 235 points or 12.98% from low of Thursday for a total loss since January of 506.56 points or 24.34% ....a definitely bear market picture.
What are the odds of Carter Worth being right......
There has been many famous pundits before from Joe Granville to Robert Prechter who made some right calls but were trapped in their "bearish slant for too long"...thus lost all credibility & following...
Granville kept looking for 800 on Dow and Prechter was preaching 400 for Dow for years.....now we know why it is bad to follow any pundit for too long.....
Current pundit were telling you, that for last 6 months 1575 is a given...well IF you believed that 6 months ago, you have lost lot of equity in the process.
It is important to deal with "current status " of any market, this way, you have an accurate picture in real time.
SO....all we had was a full blown correction, nothing more nothing less.....
In case anyone is not sure.....a pullback of 20% defines a bear market.......
Corrections were ranging upto 12% before, this time we went 13.04%...as we were facing many uncertainties like low low oil, Chinese slowdown and Fed tightening, considering all the challenges 13.04% pullback showed lot of resiliency.
Based on my multi decade experience, all charts are showing an enormous buying opportunity...charts are as bad as they can get on a short term basis......
YES...i believe that we should have a sustained rally of @ least 4 weeks, with usual profit taking bouts.
Buy stocks which you know well and try to max out your gains with 4 week patience.
It looks like an easy environment to make money in short term.
YES...all boats will be lifted again, this is what happens @ "double bottom lows"
Last Friday was a classic example of all boats being lifted with Banks, Oils and even Gold participated while gold was down for the day.
Most world markets are open on Monday except USA & Canada........
Good luck with your own take of market and stocks.

About market, TAPE continued its slump with oil prices again. As we are deeply oversold Dow recovered from 400 slump to a half decent close of down 254. Nasdaq behaved much better by being down only 16 points. It is important to stay with your own conviction and show patience as stock prices can go north in a hurry. Only closing BLOG around 7 PM on Friday's.

About market, TAPE closed near low of the day after Fed dashed hope for change in rate scenario, market were UP earlier. Oil remains the deciding factor as to the direction of this market. Lot of noise about every negative aspect which may put negative spin to this TAPE. We have to wait out this phase whenever it ends. Stay with quality stocks in a diversified portfolio.

Indices UP .17% to 1.57%.....NICE !!!!
Indices are UP after Fed statement released prior to testimony, not much of a change in policy but an acknowledgement that world growth and stock market turmoil will be considered. Rate hike will be gradual.

BIDU did not report although all brokerages were showing today as earnings day, Chinese New Year may be playing a role in this confusion.
About market, TAPE continues to be hostage to oil price movement as oil related loans are very much in focus.Janet Yellen testimony can help sentiment which may clear up her interest rate hike focus. There is extreme reaction to any disappointment in earnings and good earnings lose their gains quickly, thus a no win situation for now. Stay with conviction as this phase may be coming to an end soon.
