Don't Try to Short This Market By Rev Shark RealMoney.com Contributor 10/23/2009 7:45 AM EDT
"Believe those who are seeking the truth; doubt those who find it."
-- Andre Gide
This market has two characteristics that have made it one of the most difficult bull markets I have ever experienced. First, is that entry points are so difficult. We have had very few meaningful pullbacks and when we do have one, we recover so quickly that there is never much consolidation. Stocks quickly become extended, once again, have minor pullbacks and then go straight up some more.
Markets with strong momentum never make entry points easy, but what has made this one even more difficult is how distrusted and disliked it has been on the way up. The many strong earnings reports and the way this market is acting make you wonder if we even had a recession, while unemployment, housing and the guy on Main Street are showing very limited signs of turning up.
Earnings this quarter have been extremely strong, even though expectations have gone up quite a bit since the very surprisingly strong showing in the second quarter. If there has been a major economic slowdown, we haven't seen much of it in the results of stocks like Apple (AAPL) , Amazon (AMZN) , Intel (INTC) and so on.
Yet despite the good news coming from the stars of the stock market, there is widespread belief that our economic recovery will be extremely slow. It is very difficult to reconcile the market with the economy, and this becomes even more difficult to understand the higher the market goes without a pause.
My best advice has simply been to not fight the trend. Even if you are skeptical about the economy and hate this market, don't try to short it. None of the bearish arguments matter right now, because they are being overwhelmed by a flood of liquidity and a steady diet of positive earnings news. If you jumped in on the short side following the late selloff on Wednesday, you were under water by the close yesterday. The bulls are in control and nothing else matters.
We have had some 'sell-the-news' reaction to earnings this quarter, but the news flow has been just too good for the selling to stick. Once again, this morning, we have seen very positive reports from the likes of AMZN, Capital One (COF) and Netgear (NTGR) . Microsoft (MSFT) is coming up shortly and I expect that it will also be quite upbeat.
The big challenge of this market is trying to find some good entry points when nothing ever rests for long. Even if you are wildly bullish, finding things to buy after the run we have had is not an easy task. That doesn't mean we should be selling, but we have to be careful about letting frustration make us reckless as we try to put cash to work. ----------------------------- Ülespoole avanevad:

Canaccord Adams alustab täna Dendreoni (DNDN) katmist ostusoovituse ja $43lise hinnasihiga, uskudes, et lõplik heakskiit saadakse ravimile 2010. aasta 2. kvartalis.
Võimsalt ootusi ületanud Amazonil (AMZN) ja Microsoftil (MSFT) tasub täna silm peal hoida. Kuidas käituvad need aktsiad päeva lõpuks? Eelturul on AMZN +18.5% ja MSFT +10.5%.
Siiski, turg näis absorbeerivat oodatust parema numbri suht ükskõikselt. Näib, et ongi nii, et mingis mahus ootuste löömine on täiesti normaalne juba...
Kaalun uuesti pikaks minekut kui 9.40 lähedal kätte saab, siis jätaks nädalavahetuseks pihku. Miks: hmm, muud põhjust pole kui sisetunne
Efektiivne turuteooria ja praktika.... Tänased Rick Bensignori mõtted RealMoney alt väärivad minu arvates ka siin kajastamist:
Rick Bensignor Perfect Irrationality Is a Thing of Beauty 10/23/2009 11:09 AM EDT Note the beauty of investor psychology and why behavioral finance is so darn important: yesterday's price action took out virtually every short from Wednesday. How many could have possibly gone home with a negative bet on at yesterday's close? So it is perfect that given GOOD news today, the market sells off. It is in the absurd that one can discover rationality. What a head game trading is!
Kahe poole tunniga on Dow openist ca 130 punkti alla tulnud. Sama tempoga päeva lõpuni teeks see ca 400 punkti. Dow oleks siis 4% miinuses - küll see oleks hea. Ma ei tea miks, kuid ilgelt hea oleks.
AMZN üle +25% tõusus, kauplemas $117 tasemel. Tundub kerge ülereageeringuna, kuigi tulemused tugevad. Läbi opti short paistab üsnagi hea mõte. Hakkab vist kergelt väsima samuti.
