About market, today bulls had the lowest percentage in the last 22 months, & right on cue we went UP the-most in 2012. Adami who was sure of 1205, NOW insisting that we have only 5 more points on this UP move. Being RIGHT is not his talent.I think we go UP near 50 DMA in this run.

About market, there is so much pessimism that, market has nowhere to go but UP from here. Super Euphoric Jimmy The Cramer is analyzing how low we can go, his conclusion another 10%. I think we MAY have seen the low for this correction today.

Negative sentiment running high on Wall Street.....
Negative & scary commentary is running amok on Wall & Broad, every pundit is reacting to recent data with "dire prediction"
Yes.... some of the recent data IS below consensus, BUT they are not in recession territory.
US did create 69K jobs, after well above consensus numbers in Feb & March...whatever happened to "smoothing mechanism".....
Chinese PMI is above 50, yet the reaction is IF they hit 40 already....
India's GDP was the only "shocker"...i am sure they are working hard to change that.
European unemployment of 11%, is NOT a surprise based on what we see everyday in news.
Canada's GDP came in as expected 1.9% growth .......
Given the magnitude of European debt crisis, world economy is humming along nicely @ almost 2% to 8%.......
Remember back in 2008, world was gripped with fear of a "worldwide recession"...US was given a "failing grade" by all knowing Roubini with a drum roll of recession?????
Bottom line is ..."slower growth is still a growth"....until Europe deals with its mess.......
Can you imagine, IF Europe makes a tough decision to deal with its debt issue.......then imagine where world economy will be & where world stock market will go?
OK.....world markets HAVE reacted to the dire news of slower growth, hedgies may push S&P 500 another 25 points....BUT then we are going to have a "sharp rally".......it could be a V bottom finally.....
How many traders know, that back in 1999 S&P 500 earnings was only $39 & we were @ 1460..a lofty multiple of 37.44......now in 2012 we are going to earn record profit in S&P 500 of $105 & we are trading @ 1278.....@ a multiple of 12.17.......any fundamental analysis will tell us that 15 times PE is a realistic expectations....this should take us into all time high @1575....... something to think about in this selling mayhem.....
SO...which stock is holding the-best in this selling frenzy?......
Here is a short list, based on recent high vs closing price on Friday :
AAPL Down 9.7%
CMG Down 10.23%
AMZN Down 10.96%
LULU Down 14.54%
GOOG Down 14.81%
LEN Down 16.82%
COH Down 20.44%
PCLN Down 21.22%
LNKD Down 24.14%
BIDU Down 26.47%
LVS Down 30.79%
JCP Down 39.85%
It is amazing to see "repeatedly" that strong stocks are holding up the-best in a 10% down market.
Markets go UP & markets go DOWN...BUT are we as ready to position for an UP market????
