| Article Title :: SPX: Summer Trading Range |
| |
| Previously, I've noted similarities between the recent SPX and the 1994 SPX, which suggested a bottom at 1,197, and the April 2005 SPX, which suggested a bottom at 1,228. Last week, SPX fell to 1,219 and rallied strongly to close at 1,252 Friday. Currently, intermediate-term technical indicators suggest SPX may have reached or is close to an intermediate-term bottom and may begin a rally soon.Below is a two-year daily chart of SPX (black line and right scale) and NYSI (blue line and left scale) with 50-day MAs of VIX NYMO and CPC above and below the price chart.

| Article Title :: Penny Stocks - Risky Investment Or High Payoff, You be The Judge |
| |
| Penny stocks are stocks that normally hold a face value of less than $5. Many small companies offer these low-priced stocks to be traded on the Over-The-Counter-Bulletin-Board (OTCBB) and the Pink Sheets. This is mainly because neither the OTCBB nor the Pink Sheets require the same minimum requirements as the NASDAQ or the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), set by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Businesses that are new or close to bankruptcy may issue penny stocks as a quick and easy way for these businesses to create quick capital and try to save the business from having to file bankruptcy in a court.As you can imagine all of the aforementioned factors- low price, lack of (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Understand Bear Markets |
| |
| A bear market is when the stock market falls for an extended period of time. The fall is usually around 20% and is the opposite of a bull market.

| Article Title :: SPX & USD Relationship |
| |
| The FOMC has raised the Fed Funds Rate 25 basis points (or 1/4%) at every meeting, since mid-2004, from an accommodative 1% to a possibly neutral 5%. It's widely expected the FOMC will tighten again on June 29th and there's uncertainty if further tightening will take place this year.The first chart is a five-year weekly chart of SPX to USD (red line and right scale) and SPX (blue line and left scale). The chart shows the SPX to USD ratio and SPX are highly positively correlated, although there's some spurious correlation. The MACD indicator, above the price chart, has a negative divergence and bearish crossover, which may indicate SPX direction.The second chart is a five-yea (read full article) |
