About market, TAPE went south in a hurry on developing news of virus in USA, most were led to believe that USA has got it together and are managing it well, reality is far from it, thus a steepest sell off in history. BUT that is done, one must keep their focus on strategy of buying the-best company when they are on sale instead of worrying as to  where & when is the bottom.

About market, TAPE showed indecision in the wake of many reports from US where there is concern for containment of Corona Virus. President Trump tried to assure that everything is or will be under control. Market needs to digest some more to start looking @ future, thus more volatility @ open. This is when best buying opportunity are there.

About market, TAPE was in sharp slump due to spreading of Corona Virus in South Korea , Iran & Italy. Market was vulnerable to headlines like that after 2 day of pullback which caused panic selling today. Technicians were having field day predicting as much as 12% correction. Prediction is a very risky business many technicians are out of mind from Prechter to Granville on faulty models. We may have oversold already.

Can stock market regain its momentum.....

Stock market has been outperforming since October.....

There has been one pullback to support in January....

Corona Virus related pullback is only 2 days old.....

The question which everyone is struggling with, is this the start of much needed pullback / correction.

Many pundits / technicians have weighed in with mixed conclusions....

Some always go with the flow ...IF negative yesterday...then they warn you to be careful....

BUT IF we rally next day......drum roll for happy days are here.....

I personally believe that TAPE is trying to discount Corona Virus impact to world economies....

My personal take is ....things are getting back to normal in China which took two weeks further into their new year....how do i know..... had ordered couple of electronics items from AliExpress, one has been delivered in Canada and other one is shipped.....

We may have been caught with overreaction to Japan situation, with 20/20 hindsight, it could have been handled differently instead of being holed up inside ship.

Gold may have played its hand already and may need well deserved rest.

When I am looking @ RSI following picture emerges :

SOX              48.73

DOW            48.92

IWM             52.70

S&P 500       53.66

Nasdaq         55.92

SLV              63.83

GLD             78.99

SOX and DOW are looking oversold, except for Silver & Gold  everything has pulled back.

Strongest stocks can be bought on 5% to 10% pullback which has occurred already....

Taking a position with conviction can be rewarding @ this stage.

AMD, MU, ROKU, BYND, LYFT has good risk / reward ratio.

Good luck with your own analysis & comfort level.

About market, TAPE was given a jolt by AAPL which revised its guidance downwards based on Chinese Sales and impact of Corona Virus. Many chips stocks slumped in sympathy of this negative impact on sales. Nasdaq fought its way back and closed in green, which is an example of inflow of money into US equities.

USA markets heading higher.....

Markets in USA are showing great resiliency no matter what headwinds it faces.

First it was Fed's direction for interest rates, it calmed down

Secondly it was USA vs CHINA trade squabble, it calmed down

Thirdly it is Corona Virus and its worldwide impact, it is calming down also.

Through all of the above and many mini crisis like Iran attack, impeachment, US markets kept making new all time highs...

WHY US markets are making series of all time highs?

IT IS because since Y2K boom...US stock market went into reverse and hit lows in 2008...an 8 year reversal.....

All we are doing is currently making up for lost time from 2000...a 12 year wait till we came back to 2000 highs......

From 2012 to November of 2018...we made very gradual new highs.....

Since November of 2018....we are having a sustained uptrend where TAPE is ignoring / digesting many issues quickly.....because it wants to go higher....

Time wise this uptrend is only 15 months old....in a very slow uptrend making series of new highs.....

WHY this uptrend is having legs.....because  " froth is gone from most world economies " they all having to adjust to slowing GDP worldwide, thus it is more efficient in projecting Sales & EPS.....

Reckless behavior of Y2K is gone and conservative / sustained move is happening....

SO..have key stocks in your portfolio where growth is sustainable going forward.....

5G is a major catalyst going forward, still in early stages.......

Get ready for another leg UP in this market...fast and furious!!!!!

Good luck with your own analysis and comfort level.

Is CHINA going to pull US markets down?

Chinese economy is hurting due to Corona Virus.

More cities are being closed down to prevent spread of this virus

Now it is turn of Industrial cities of CHINA to be locked down, this can have major impact not only on Chinese economy but worldwide.

US stock markets have been making series of all time highs while Corona Virus is impacting more and more people and Chinese cities.

US celebration of all time highs can come to screeching halt and may head south in a hurry.

Here is a look @ RSI of major part of US market :

Nasdaq          64.91

S&P 500       59.52

DOW            55.62

SOX             49.99

IWM            49.57

Test of 50 DMA already happening in RUSSELL 2000 where it is sitting @ 50 DMA, SOX is barely above 50 DMA.

Nasdaq, Dow & S&P 500 are further above 50 DMA and may have to join in testing support or penetrate 50 DMA.

Chinese economic impact is more than alarming, thus needs reset.

IT IS important to look beyond comfort zone of USA to get an accurate handle on impact of this virus where death toll have surpassed SARS already as we are in 800++ zone.

As long as as you are taking risk knowingly, that chance of going down have risen considerably in last 72 hours, there will be no surprise.

Good luck with your own analysis and comfort level.

About market, TAPE enjoyed another all time high close in DOW, S&P 500, Nasdaq. Tomorrow it is all about Jobs number 157,500 is what market consensus is + or - can dictate direction of this hyper mode action. It was strange day for internals of this market, a very mixed reading and muted action in VIX.....

About market, TAPE was strong from open and closed near high of the day. S&P 500 and Nasdaq made another new closing all time high. Market is getting momentum buying into many stocks while new TSLA took a well deserved pullback. Market is looking well beyond Corona Virus and impeachment is in rear view with congress vote.

About market, TAPE shot UP on optimistic interpretation of Corona Virus potential impact in USA, It is a medical story not a disease story which is restricted to China. TSLA has gone ballistic on rewording of its industry affiliation, it is being dubbed as technology / environment play instead of  Auto company, thus sky high potential. Nasdaq closed @ new all time high, All major Indices are above 50 DMA now.
