News in Brief

Bloomberg:

  • Wall Street sees worst week of 2023 on Fed jitters.

MarketWatch:

  • Bed Bath & Beyond lifeline comes at ‘incredible cost’ to shareholders, analyst warns.
  • Traders brace for a blowup as cost of protection for U.S. stocks hits highest level since October.
  • Stocks end mostly higher, but S&P 500, Nasdaq book worst weekly losses since December.

The news remains contradictory. The only advice we can give is: “Stay with individual stock trends.”

Global Indexes

S&P 500

The S&P 500 made a small bounce on its short-term trend line, but still closed below its EMA8 line.

DAX

The DAX made a breakaway gap downwards after the inverted hammer candle to close just below its EMA8 line. We see below EMA8 line as short-term negativity and below its 50-day moving average as long-term negativity.

HANG SENG

The HANG SENG’s long-term positive trend line is broken, and a short-term negative trend line is active. Both the negative trend and EMA8 lines need to be broken to signal positive moves again.

NYSE & NASDAQ Stocks

Tesla Inc

After the gap and doji, profit taking stepped in for Tesla. We have to assume that it was an exhaustion gap and also notice that we have divergence in place that signals a top. If it makes another correction today, the positive trend line will be broken and trend candles will most probably turn yellow.

Occidental Petroleum Corp

We showed Occidental Petroleum last week when it broke its short-term negative trend line. It then hesitated at its 50-day and 200-day moving averages with a small J-curve. On Friday it broke these resistance averages and started forming a new positive trend line.

JSE Stocks

JSE All Shares

The JSE All Shares corrected to the bottom of its flag after the doji. Frontrunner is still heading down and the MACD remains red.

Absa Group Ltd

Absa broke its positive trend line with a 7.2% drop for the week. Frontrunner is predicting that more lows are coming and notice where the MACD turned red to warn you!
