Passing 12,000

Posted by btr Sun, 19 Nov 2006 20:06:53 GMT

12,000 is at the rear mirror now. INDU has been strong in the past two weeks. Even though it’s in over-bought territory, INDU has the momentum to reach higher at year end rally. The mid-term election was over, the market did not over-react to the new political landscape in Washington.

Marching to 12,000

Posted by btr Thu, 05 Oct 2006 00:07:00 GMT

It looks rather symetric on this quarterly chart. What’s ahead of us after 12,000? It looks like a double top so it may pull back for a while before moving ahead.

War to end based on market reactions?

Posted by btr Mon, 17 Jul 2006 23:53:00 GMT

The market is looking for direction. Maybe the war is close to an end?

Dow Jones Industrial has reached the previous low. We should see some bounce unless some really bad development continues in the mideast.

War effects

Posted by btr Thu, 06 Jul 2006 20:21:00 GMT

Obviously the latest development in the mideast has caused some concerns on the market. Along with other major indices, Dow Jones Industrial lost ground and it looks likely that it will retest previous low again.

Consider it a potential buying opportunity.

Posted by btr Mon, 26 Jun 2006 03:14:00 GMT

Dow Jones Industrial tested previous low of 10,800 and bounced back. It has broken out of downtrend and been consolidating around 11,000.

Since it’s in summer months, it may not show any determined direction.
