Tuesday's Stocks to Watch

The market is trading lower at 3:00 pm EST. The lost initially was contributed to the GDP number announced this morning. But around mid morning, (GOOG) Google's CFO, announced the company's growth rate is slowing down. It is like a death sentence for any high growth stocks like Google. Most of the internet related stocks, such as (YHOO), (EBAY), (BIDU), are down of the Google effect.

One of the biggest winners of the cheap stocks is Pinnacle Data Systems Inc. (PNS) broke out of the high today. It was on my stock alert last week. Volume has picked up a lot as compared to normal trading days. It continues from last week's strong volume breakout.

What is ahead for stocks next week?

Stocks closed the week with a lost across the all three exchanges. Myself had a bad week and a bad month. My past stock leaders had a terrible month. I will need to look for the stability of the market first before my next move. One word of caution, do not chase winners until situation improves.

Thursday's stocks to watch

The market is trading mixed at 2:00 pm EST. The Nasdaq is up, but the S&P and DOW are down. The major news was the jobless claim is dropping and still below 300K for the month. A news for the US economy. That should translate into good market, but I still have not seen it lately. (MRVL) will be announcing earning tonight. This can be a big mover after hour.

The market looks like it will open lower today. US weekly jobless benefits fell 20K to 278K vs. consensus of 300K, but it is still at and below the 300K level for a sixth straight week which is an indication of US strong labor market. The magic word, inflation, is still in minds of the traders.

Wednesday's stocks to watch

The market is trading higher at 1:30 pm EST. The market has been very violatile lately. The Nasdaq can be up 20 points today, and down 20 points the next day. But the trend is pointing down from the recent trading days. (GRMN) is a good example, it opened up $5, but it went down lower than the closing price in the morning, and it recovered some of the gains right now. But from the chart point of view, it looks te down from now. I would be hesitated to take any long position after a big run up like (GRMN) this morning. Cash is the king right now.

Tuesday's stocks to watch

The market is trading lower at 1:15 pm EST. I believe the causes of the market drop are contributed by the surge in price of oil and the expectation of the FOMC meeting minute releases. Weakness of the market remains. Do not margin now.

Tuesday's Pre-Market

The market looks like it will open higher today because of in sympathy with strength in overseas markets. Japan's Nikkei Index closed up 3.0% and broad-based bullishness in European markets also contributed to rise of future U.S. markets. Also confirmation of a deal worth up to $4.0 bln between Honeywell (HON) and Airbus is also helping. (HD) beat earning estimates also helped for the rise of the opening bell.

Stocks weekend review

The market closed modestly higher this week. Volume has dropped from the previous week. The only good news with the bull is the price of oil has dropped below the $60 per barrel, a former support level. But the fear of inflation is another obstacle which it needs to over come. The PPI which annonuced last week is much higher than expected, and the labor market is still strong. The US economy is humming along well, I believe this will eventually translate into a good market for bulls. Just be patience and wait for the next leg up.

Wednesday's Stocks To Watch

The market is trading higher at 3:15 pm EST. It had some see-saw battles between the bull and bear. Volume seems to be about the same as yesterday, but lower than the typical trading days. No a good sign for the bull. The biggest good news for the bull is the price oil is falling. Hopefully this will translate into bull market soon. I believe the fear of inflation is in most investors' mind lately.

Blackrock is in for the bidding war

BlackRock (BLK) looks like it is in for the bidding war between several financial institutions. It was mentioned on my blog as a candidate for Citibank yesterday, but it is Merrill (MER) is doing the purchase.
This could be interesting as the story develops.

Wednesday's Pre-Market

The market looks like it will open slightly lower today. Not much news out before the market open today. Industrial Production (consensus +0.2%) and Capacity Utilization (consensus 80.8%) reports will follow at 9:15 ET. The new FED chairman, Bernanke will be having testimony scheduled to begin at 10:00 ET, and the Dept. of Energy will announce crude inventory stats 30 minutes later. The market is still in the limbo mode. I would hold off any buying until the dust settles.

Monday's Stocks To Watch

The market is trading lower at 1:30pm EST, it opened lower and it has getting lower as the day passed. (GOOG) perhaps is the biggest contributor on the Nasdaq market. It has been mentioned very negatively on Barron over the weekend. The $400 price was proven to be a good exiting point back when it announed earning a few weeks ago. I would be cautious on the market right now until the sentiment changes.

Stocks Weekend Review

The market had a choppy week, and ended little changed. I would be cautious toward the market. There are more down days than up days lately. The market is worrying inflation with the FED. It is expected more rate hike in the coming months. Cisco (CSCO) was the start for the market last week. Others are not as specular as (CSCO). Oil price were down last week in support for the stock market. But we all knows the $30 a barrel day is a thing of the past.

Friday's Stocks To Watch

The market is still trading down at 2:00pm EST, but it is recouped some of the heavier loses this morning. More stocks are down than up. There are very news on why the market is down today. Price of oil has inched down for the past feww days. US trade deficit is worse than expected. I am guessing the market is down because of the recent weakness on the market. Most of the major companies already announced earnings, so not much for the traders to look forward to in the coming weeks.

Thursday's Stocks To Watch

The market is trading slightly higher at 2:00pm EST, but it dropped from the high of the day. The trend for the day does not seem to look good right now. It is about the lowest of the day. If the market goes higher at the close, it would be good for the bull, otherwise we may see further weakness to come.

Thursday's Pre-Market

The market looks like it will open higher today due to continuation from yesterday's strong close. This morning's initial claims rose 4K to 277K and were below the 285K consensus, hinting labor conditions remain strong. Inflation is still a concern. It is a double edge sword. Strong labor market points inflation, but week labor market means bad economy. It is a matter of how economists interpretating the data. (VTSS) and (AXYS) are favorible mentions on Cramer's show. But these companies are still losing money, I would not hop in just yet because of the high percentage jump in the morning.

Wednesday's Stocks To Watch

The market is trading higher at 2:00pm EST. The high ticks for the market were caused mostly the Cisco (CSCO) earning report from last night. It beat the estimate by 1 cent.

Wednesday's Pre-Market

The market looks like it will open higher today due to earning report from Cisco (CSCO) after market last night.

Tuesday's Pre-Market

The market looks like it will open lower today due to ongoing concerns about slowing profit growth. (DIS) and (KO) beat Wall Street's expectations. (TOL) lowered its 2006 home delivery estimates and uncertainty ahead of Cisco Systems' (CSCO) earnings also contributes to the lower opening. It is quite interesting that Cramer also agreed with me on the $400 exit level of (GOOG) I have posted on the day the earning came out.

Monday's Stocks To Watch

The market is trading flat at 1:30pm EST. No major economical news from the US govenment and slight higher oil price because of Iran incident did not cause any problem with the market today.

Monday's Pre-Market

The market looks like it will open little higher today. With last week's down week blamed mostly on (GOOG), it was the second down week. Anticipation of higher inflation in the future also contributes the lost for the market as well. We shall see what will happen next.

(RHEO), (QQQQ), (AMZN), (ERICY), (CESV), (TLCV), (CTDC), (ICBC), (SFNT), (JADE)

Friday's Stocks To Watch

The market has opened down this morning. The Nasdaq market has been down 1% in the early morning, but it has recovered most of them at 2:00pm EST. At 2:00pm EST, Nasdaq is down about 12 instead of the 28 points in the morning. The Dow and S&P 500 has staged recovery as well. The market has been very violatile for pas couple weeks. The good news buyers are stepping in as stocks are going down. That is very health for the market.

(ISRG) is a good example of this trend. It announced earning last night. It opened down about $15, and down almost $17 at the worst level. But it has recovered to down about $5. (GOOG) is another interesting example as well. When (GOOG) announced earning after close, it went down as far as down $70 in the after market, and it recovered to down only $30. I think $400 has proved to be a good exit point for the short term.

Is Intuitive Surgical (ISRG) a Sell now?

(ISRG) has been a darling on the street. It has been one of favorite a few months ago. But this morning the stock went south down about $17 in early morning, fortunately it recovered most of the loses. I have put a stop-sell order at $110 this morning, it did not go through. That is why sometimes it is good to have stop order in place like (ISRG). I think $110 should be a good support for the stock short term. So the question is: is it a sell for (ISRG). Here is the article published by Motley Fools.

Phase 2 for Intuitive Surgical By Stephen D. Simpson, CFA
February 3, 2006

So how much would you spend for a company that can dramatically alter the way surgeries are performed and has no credible competitor on the horizon? 30 times earnings? 50? Do I hear 100? That's the problem facing Rule Breakers recommendation Intuitive Surgical (Nasdaq: ISRG) today -- a good company with a very good product that has seen its stock become a momentum darling.

Robots and accessories continued a steady march out the door this past quarter, with revenue up 60% over last year's level. Not only did the company sell 60% more systems (40 versus 25), but instrument and accessory revenue was up 78%. Gross margins rose again, operating margin took a big jump, and operating income more than doubled.

All of that's just fine -- but the company's guidance for 2006 might rattle some of the market's more hyperactive traders. Management is looking for revenue growth between 25% and 35%, while the Street was pegging an average revenue growth estimate of around 37%. Couple that with some insider sales at Intuitive Surgical over the past few months, and some people may get skittish.

Those aren't the bits that I'm paying attention to right now, though. What interests me is how the company transitions to the next phase of its growth. It's had a good initial run with the DaVinci system, and it's built a good share of the prostatectomy market. Now it's time to move on and push for penetration in other surgical specialties like cardiology, gynecology, and general surgery. After all, there's only so much money to be made in prostate surgery.

I've been a fan of Intuitive Surgical for a long time -- even back when the sell-side firm I worked for supported and did investment banking for a rival (since acquired by Intuitive). But when I see analysts coming out and basing price targets on 70 times earnings, that's just nutty. Heck, most medical technology CEOs are very happy if they can sell their companies to Medtronic (NYSE: MDT), Abbott (NYSE: ABT), or Boston Scientific (NYSE: BSX) for eight to ten times sales. Intuitive trades at nearly 20 times sales.

I'm certainly not saying that Intuitive can't continue to grow and further penetrate the surgery market. There really is a huge market opportunity out there. Still, when a company already has this big a following, I tend to turn a bit suspicious -- particularly when analysts seem to start using the "today's price plus 20%" method of valuation. By no means am I saying "sell," but do be careful out there.

China stock is the latest theme on the market

It seems no matter how the market does, up or down, recently, it does not affect the Chinese stocks traded on the US Markets. (CTDC), (CAAS), and (CESV) the examples of these Chinese company stocks. I believe this could be the latest craziness of the investment communities who wanted to play the hot China economy. For the past few days, these stocks became hot stocks. Volumes have picked tremendously and pushed them with very high percentage gains, some even with over 50% in a day. Play them with care.

The Difference Between Market Tops And Bottoms

It would be nice to know on how to spot the market's top and bottom. With this power, we can profit from it. Here is the article written by TradingMarkets Research of TradingMarkets.com:

It is important for investors to understand a common characteristic of market tops that is quite different from market bottoms. Market bottoms are often V-shaped and sharp and the final low in indexes can come with a selling climax. Then it often takes many months for bases to develop and the real cream comes when those bases are broken out of on the upside on good volume, long after the low day is made. It is rare for a substantial percentage of stocks to make bottom and base-out and breakout before the final low in the indexes is made.

Not so with market tops usually. Lowry's has done a great job of analyzing this recently. Tops are broad affairs that show a characteristic NARROWING in the numbers of stocks and industries that make new highs long before the day that the indexes make their final highs. It is not uncommon for 1/3 or more of stocks to have fallen by 20% or more, essentially already in bear markets before the top in indexes is reached, and for a majority of stocks to have already make their highs and have turned down by this point. Investors need to get out of most stocks before the final high is made to optimize results therefore.

Significant tops USUALLY, though certainly not always, are marked by a substantial divergence in the performance of various groups and stocks therefore. TM.com investors will remember the market period since 1998 as being a nearly nirvana environment for long-short strategies because we had huge pockets of old-industry stocks and groups in bear markets from 1998 on, while a narrowing list of new-industry stocks kept exploding to new highs, allowing profitable shorts and longs in breadth, all at the same time.

We HAVE had a narrowing of stocks and groups that are making new highs so far. A/D lines and new high/new low data as well as the number of groups making new highs show this narrowing process. BUT we have not had the divergence of 1998-2000 in this market. There are NOT a host of wonderful short-sale opportunities with group after group breaking down here. That MAY mean more of a soft-landing market environment than a major top environment in the making. In other words while it is clearly growing more and more important that investors seeking top returns FOCUS on the FEW TOP PERFORMING INDUSTRIES AND SECTORS, investors are not yet being wholesale slaughtered by holding the wrong industries and groups, absent a few exceptions. Even autos, one of the weakest groups since the end of 2003, seem to have a glimpse of hope of some better action.

Yet this week SOME groups are starting to breakdown a bit more – not so much in major topping formations yet, but substantial enough technical deterioration that exploratory shorts may be worth considering for aggressive traders, only to be added to upon substantial further evidence of breakdown. One example is housing stocks. The HGX housing index COULD be developing the right shoulder of a one-year head & shoulder top that would be confirmed by a high volume weak close under 225. On the daily charts, the uptrend line since the October lows was broken on volume this week. A breakdown on volume under 252 and under the 200 ma would add short-term evidence to suggest a longer-term top possible. XLY falling under 32 and RTH under 93 to accompany bearish action by housing stocks would give some credence to the concept of a housing slowdown impacting the consumer a-bit, something that macro data is starting to suggest is possible this year. So far retail and consumer discretionary groups have only LAGGED on the upside, but have not broken down. Utilities and bonds bear watching too and are in a similar technical condition. Therefore investors need to keep an eye out for breakdowns by key groups here. The more groups that actually breakdown, the more dangerous the market environment becomes. To paraphrase Joe Granville, don't watch the water line of the top water in the bathtub, watch the suction of water at the bottom by the drain. The degree of breakdowns and weakness in the diverging weaker groups here may tell the tale of how toppy this market becomes and how much hedging and caution will be advised in 2006.

Of course the top groups are way extended and could correct sharply at any time. But the danger to the top groups may be evident from the action of the weaker groups. Let's start watching for continuation and real breakdowns here closely to see if the market will limp through an economic slowdown of sorts in the US, or whether defensive action will become more and more necessary.

Our basic strategy of buying strictly only those stocks meeting our rigid criteria and selling short those doing the same on breakouts has had more new trades in the last month than in the six months prior, and so far these new trades are doing quite well.

Our model portfolio followed in TradingMarkets.com with specific entry/exit/ops levels from 1999 through May of 2003 was up 41% in 1999, 82% in 2000, 16.5% in 2001, 7.58% in 2002, and we stopped specific recommendations up around 5% in May 2003 (strict following of our US only methodologies should have had portfolios up 17% for the year 2003) – all on worst drawdown of under 7%. This did not include our foreign stock recommendations that had spectacular performance in 2003.

Over the past week in our Top RS/EPS New Highs list published on TradingMarkets.com, we had readings of 135, 188, 168, 99, and 125 with 43 breakouts of 4+ week ranges, no valid trades and close calls in (NasdaqNM:ORCT - News), (NasdaqNM:SMSC - News), (NYSE:BNT - News), and (NasdaqNM:PWAV - News). This week, our bottom RS/EPS New Lows recorded readings of 7, 4, 7, 10, and 11 with 4 breakdowns of 4+ week ranges, no valid trades and no close calls. The model portfolio of trades meeting criteria is now long (NasdaqNM:TRAD - News), (NYSE:CIB - News), (NasdaqSC:BOOM - News), (NYSE:GG - News), and (NasdaqNM:RVSN - News). We've already suggested tightening up stops a bit in all of these, and profits should be locked in.

Friday's Pre-Market

The market looks like it will open higher today because today's unemployment report. According to AP headline news, "Payrolls Growed by 193,000, Unemployment Rate Drops in January to Lowest Since July 2001." Even though the market maybe up at the open, but it still has the chance to go down because of the recent see-saw movement by the market.
One of the disappointment is (ISRG), one of my favorite stocks when I covered for over a few months now. It did not guide its growth rate higher than expected. That news along causes the stock to open $5 points lower. I am selling a portion of the holding today if it breaks my stop limit of $115.

Thursday Stocks To Watch

The market has turned south in the mid-morning amid a surprising decline in Q4 productivity. Added to the bear fire, it was the strong January same-store sales data from many of the nation's retailers failed to boost sentiment. Volume has picked up more than normal. It seems like the market is more violatile lately, it can be up and down 30 points easily on the Nasdaq market. It is hard to see what the trend is now. I would hold off buying any stock for now.
I was a bit surprise on how strong (GOOG) is after the earning report. It came back from down 70 points after market to down only $30 yesterday.

Thursday's Pre-Market

The market looks like it will open lower today from yesterday's late rally. (GOOG) does not sem to have any major effect on the market.

Wednesday's Pre-Market

The market looks like it will open lower today because of Google (GOOG). Like I have mentioned yesterday, it missed earning by a mile. I would use the comeback strength to sell the stock. It maybe possible to see price near $400 today. It would be a nice price to get out.
