July 2017: Overvalued? The Answer is: Yes…No…Maybe!

Value Price Balance-Sira Amanwong ID-100532643

Finding the right balance in times of uncertainty is a challenge, but the opportunities are always there.

 

By Larry C. Paxton

The 2nd half of 2017 got off to a roaring start with all stocks/commodities indices up significantly. At the same time all segments of the economy continued to show only modest to moderate growth, and nothing could be classified as anywhere near robust. The stock market recovery has lasted several years now without any major adjustment, which itself is a rarity.

So, what gives?

More and more investment professionals say a downward correction is imminent, that investors need to retreat to bonds, look at international equity investment opportunities, preserve cash in low interest yield funds, or maybe buy into gold or real estate. Then others say that the stock exchanges are still significantly undervalued because innovations, especially in technology, are driving forces that are increasing value. Certainly Apple, Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft, and others demonstrate that.

As shown in the summary tables below, it might be true that large cap companies are overvalued and the opportunities are in mid to small cap companies.

There are the unknown factors such as an apparent volatile, chaotic, and leaky White House, directionless House and Senate legislative bodies who can’t seem to get anything going, a press that enjoys reporting on and feeding controversy, and external forces such as the threats of North Korea, continued unrest in the Middle East, tension with Russia, and issues such as Brexit in Europe. 

However, as The PBR1000 has demonstrated for several years now, there are always short term and long term investment opportunities, it takes some work to discern the next round of winners, and maybe even a little luck, but they are there and just have to be mined for you to come up with the golden nuggets, using excellent proven tools like The PBR1000!

The PBR1000 June 2017 Stocks/Commodities Snapshots

July 17, 2017 by

June 2017: What Happened to Tech Stocks?

Roller Coaster-wiangya ID-100216099

The first half of 2017 was a bit of a roller coaster ride. What will the second half bring? Don’t forget to raise your arms high, take a deep breath, and be prepared to scream!

By Larry C. Paxton

In June the NASDAQ exchange took a bit of a hit because technology stocks stumbled, while the DJIA and S&P500 did just fine. This is also reflected in the Top 5 lists below where the monthly, year-to-date, and 18 months results have few tech stocks in the mix. The market capitalization Top 5 is even more dramatic, loaded with all tech related stocks, each one dropped in value during the month.

Half way through 2017 the stock exchanges are doing much better than any one was predicting at the end of 2016.

For many analysts this remains a sign of the Trump Effect and the hopes that the new administration’s efforts will produce federal government laws and programs for infrastructure, healthcare, manufacturing and other sectors. But Congress has yet to pass any meaningful legislation. Without any actions it is hard to imagine that the economy can continue to build to sustain the long running bull market.

The second half of the year should be a roller coaster of unpredictability, review your stocks portfolio, place your bets, and let’s see what happens! 

Here are the June summaries on the major US stock exchanges:

Number of Trading Days: 22

Number of Gain(+)/Loss(-) Days: DJIA 12+/10-; NASDAQ 10+/12-; SPX 11+/11-.

Record Days: DJIA 7, NASDAQ 3, SPX 4

Longest Gain Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 3, NASDAQ 3, SPX 2

Longest Loss Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 4, NASDAQ 3, SPX 3

Big Swing Up Days(>1.00%): 2, 06/19/17: NASDAQ, +1,42, Tech shares rebound; 06/28/17: NASDAQ, +1.43%, Tech and other industries rebound

Big Swing Down Days(<-1.00%): 3, 06/09/17: NASDAQ, -1.80%, Tech selloff, UK elections; 06/27/17: NASDAQ, -1.61%, Tech selloff, Senate delays healthcare vote; 06/29/17: NASDAQ, -1.44%, Tech selloff

The following are Top 5 partial tables excerpts from The PBR1000 June Snapshots.

The PBR1000 May 2017 Stocks/Commodities Snapshots

June 9, 2017 by

May 2017: Calm Overcomes a Mid Month Panic

Panic Calm-Stuart Miles ID-10088148

May: 12 days of Calm, 1 day of Panic, 9 more days of relative Calm. Not bad in times of unpredictability.

 

By Larry C. Paxton

The first half of May saw the NASDAQ and S&P 500 stocks reaching new record highs and the DJIA slightly ahead for the month. But the market reacted very negatively on Wednesday, May 17th, with the political news that former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn may have misrepresented his involvement with Russian business and leaders. When the day was finished the implications and concerns were somewhat diminished and all 3 major US stock exchanges followed with 6-7 day positive runs that overtook the drastic 1 day drop and the NASDAQ and S&P500 establishing more record highs.

Here’s a repeat from April: The US economy continues to grow at a modest/moderate rate, with job growth, wage growth and the unemployment rate being reasonable. Business and consumer sentiment indexes show growing confidence.

Because of the current volatility and unpredictability of the US political environment investment in stocks opinions continue to range widely. There are clearly opportunities for the economy to grow and strengthen, but will political turmoil force us to start over? As the drama continues to unfold and evolve don’t wear out the edge of your seat!

Here are some May summaries on the US stock exchanges:

Number of Trading Days: 22

Number of Gain(+)/Loss(-) Days: DJIA 11+/11-; NASDAQ 17+/5-; SPX 14+/8-.

Record Days: DJIA 0, NASDAQ 10, SPX 7

Longest Gain Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 6, NASDAQ 7, SPX 7

Longest Loss Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 4, NASDAQ 2, SPX 2

Big Swing Up Days(>1.00%): 0

Big Swing Down Days(<-1.00%): 1, 05/17/17(Russia influence in US elections, Mike Flynn issues)

The following are Top 5 partial tables excerpts from The PBR1000 May Snapshots. The price for stocks is for the close of trading on May 31, Month % Chg is compared to April 28, YTD % Chg is compared to December 31, 2016, and the 17 Months % Chg is compared to December 31, 2015.

Investment professionals continue to be all over the place with opinions ranging from the Bull Market has a long more way to run to a severe Bear Market is right around the corner.

Here are some April summaries on the US stock exchanges:

Number of Trading Days: 19

Number of Gain(+)/Loss(-) Days: DJIA 8+/11-; NASDAQ 10+/9-; SPX 8+/11-.

Record Days: DJIA 0, NASDAQ 4, SPX 0

Longest Gain Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 2, NASDAQ 2, SPX 2

Longest Loss Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 3, NASDAQ 3, SPX 3

Big Swing Up Days(>1.00%): 1, 04/24/17: Day after centrist Emmanuel Macron wins French Presidential election

March 2017: Mixed Results

Invest Button 87976-20131105

Investing has been strong for quite some time. What will keep investors interested? How will the economy and politics affect investment decisions?

 

By Larry C. Paxton

March 1st started with a strong uptick after President Trump’s speech the previous evening to the US Congress and citizens. During the rest of the month there were really no wild swings, and a slight trend down. Businesses and people are still trying to figure out the current and future impact of the Trump presidency, how the many personal controversies and issues will be resolved. Overall perhaps March could really be labeled as the “Wait & See Month.”

The US economy does continue to appear to be growing at a modest to moderate pace, but still shows some fragility. Business and consumer surveys indicate optimism.

Investors continue to pretty much tread along, keeping alert for some sure up and down signals.

Here are some March summaries on the US stock exchanges:

Number of Trading Days: 23

Number of Gain(+)/Loss(-) Days: DJIA 7+/16-; NASDAQ 16+/ 7-; SPX 10+/13-.

Record Days: DJIA 1, NASDAQ 2, SPX 1

Longest Gain Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 2, NASDAQ 5, SPX 3

Longest Loss Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 8, NASDAQ 2, SPX 4

Big Swing Up Days(>1.00%): 1, 03/01/17: Day after President Trump speech to Congress/Nation

Big Swing Down Days(<-1.00%): 1, 03/21/17: Banking sector, options expirations

The following are Top 5 partial tables excerpts from The PBR1000 March Snapshots. The stock price is for the close of trading on March 31, Month % Chg is compared to February 28, YTD % Chg is compared to December 31, 2016, and the 15 Months % Chg is compared to December 31, 2015.

The PBR1000 February 2017 Stocks/Commodities Snapshots

February 2017: Investors Continue To Ride The Bull

Bull Riding ID-100291982-hywards

The Stock Market Bull Ride has lasted several years now. How much longer can it go?

 

By Larry C. Paxton

With a new US President in the White House initiating some controversial major changes and legislation, and issuing executive orders that rip apart previous administration policies, it would make sense that the stock market, which prefers not rocking the boat, would show some volatility.  Surprisingly, the Stock Market Bulls continued to run ahead of the pack each day with all 3 major US stock exchanges staying pretty much between the + & – 0.50% during the month, and finishing ahead quite comfortably year-to-date.

Maybe that’s because at the same time the US economy continues to plod along at a modest to moderate pace and shows some encouraging signs of strengthening. 

It could also be that investors are cautiously optimistic, but keeping their eyes and ears open. Let’s hope for the best!

Here are some February summaries on the US stock exchanges:

Number of Trading Days: 19

Number of Gain(+)/Loss(-) Days: DJIA 15+, 4-; NASDAQ 13+, 6-; SPX 15+, 4-.

Record Days: DJIA 12, NASDAQ 10, SPX 9

Longest Gain Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 12, NASDAQ 7, SPX 7

Longest Loss Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 1, NASDAQ 2, SPX 1

Big Swing Up Days(>1.00%): None

Big Swing Down Days(<-1.00%): None

The PBR1000 January 2017 Stocks/Commodities Snapshots

January 2017: How Much More Bull Is Left In The Trump Bump?

Bull Growth Trend-hywards ID-100395863

It’s One Month Into 2017. How Long Can The Trump Bull Keep Climbing?

 

By Larry C. Paxton

While a good month overall, January was a particularly good month for the NASDAQ as key technology players made some big advances. Perhaps the upswing for the US stock exchanges is the anticipation of the Trump administration dropping barriers to business by eliminating some particular distasteful regulations like Dodd-Frank. Perhaps it’s the promise of lowering corporate taxes to be more competitive with the rest of the world and hopefully bring back trillions of dollars to the US parked in foreign markets.   Or maybe it’s the trade agreements currently in place, or in the process of being approved, which are now potentially on the chopping block.

At the same time the economy keeps plugging along at a modest rate for most of the country.

So, for stocks and commodities, the question remains about the potential continued gain in the markets, and the concern that this level of growth can’t be sustained for much longer. There is the sentiment that many key stocks are close, if not already, to being overvalued, and there will have to be a major adjustment.  On the otherhand, if President Trump can get his way, the bulls might still have room to run, and we are in an interesting ride as the year continues to unfold in unpredictable ways.

Here are some January summaries on the US stock exchanges:

Number of Trading Days: 20

Number of Gain(+)/Loss(-) Days: DJIA 8+, 12-; NASDAQ 14+, 6-; SPX 10+, 10-.

Record Days: DJIA 2, NASDAQ 9, SPX 3

Longest Gain Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 3, NASDAQ 7, SPX 2

Longest Loss Streak(Consecutive Days): DJIA 3, NASDAQ 1, SPX 4

Big Swing Up Days(>1.00%): None

Big Swing Down Days(<-1.00%): None

The PBR1000 December 2016 Stocks/Commodities Snapshots

January 16, 2017 by

December 2016: Ending On A High Note, Now What?

 

Welcome to 2017! What it means today is a little uncertain!

Welcome to 2017! What it means today as we take it on is a little uncertain. Let’s do our best!

 

By Larry C. Paxton

The Trump Bump continued its rise throughout December, expressing the relief of the end of a rather bizarre US Presidential campaign with the election being decided by the Electoral College. But hopefully it also reflected the hope and optimism that there will be positive changes in the new government.

All 3 major US stock exchanges hit record highs in December. The DJIA almost hit the 20,000 mark, but in the last 3 trading days all major US stock exchanges backed down by 1% or more to finish a year that ended up much higher than predicted at the beginning of 2016.

2016 ended on a high note but there is much confusion about what direction stocks and commodities will take in 2017. Trading can be expected to be volatile as the Trump administration gets settled in, the world gets used to a much different American style of dealing with important issues, and new policies start to be(or not to be) implemented. These actions will be further impacted by unpredictable international influences like energy production and prices, Brexit, regional wars, acts of terrorism, natural disasters, and innovative new technologies, to name just a few in no particular order.  We start 2017 anticipating an interesting ride into the unknown that will carry risks and some intended and unintended consequences from decisions made and actions taken, but also will provide some significant opportunities for alert leaders and investors. We wish you the best and look forward to The PBR1000 contributing to your success in 2017!

Here are some December summaries on the US stock exchanges:

The PBR1000 November 2016 Stocks/Commodities Snapshots

December 19, 2016 by

November 2016: The Surprise Trump Bump

ID-100106700 Christmas Stock Market-imagerymajestic

The Trump Bump has been a nice Christmas gift for stock investors.

By Larry C. Paxton

The first part of November continued the downward trend of the last week of October for the US stock exchanges. The US presidential race was taking its toll on the public and investors with two very unpopular candidates leading the charge by lobbing huge questionable accusations at each other and making seemingly impossible promises. 

As if in a sigh of relief that it was about to be over all 3 major US stock exchanges recorded a 2+% gain the day before the election. The day of the election there was a .4-.5% gain. As polls closed and results tallied the improbable path to victory for Donald J Trump became a reality, and we now have elected our 45th US President. The next day there was another upward spike of over 1%, then mostly positive and record days during the rest of the month.

Here are some November summaries on the US stock exchanges:

Number of Trading Days: 21

Number of Gain(+)/Loss(-) Days: DJIA 14+, 7-; NASDAQ 15+, 6-; SPX 11+, 10-.

Record Days: DJIA 8, NASDAQ 3, SPX 4

Gain Streaks: DJIA 7, NASDAQ 3, SPX 4

Loss Streaks: DJIA 7(includes 3 days from October), NASDAQ 9(includes 5 from October), SPX 9(includes 5 from October)

Big Swing Up Days: 11/07/16(day before election), 11/09/16(day after election)

Big Swing Down Days: Streak of 7-9 down days in late October/early November before the election, 11/28/16(Monday after Thanksgiving Weekend with Black Friday shopping day)

The following are Top 5 partial tables excerpts from The PBR1000 November Snapshots. The stock price is for the close of trading on November 30th, Month % Chg is compared to October 31st, YTD % Chg is compared to December 31, 2015, and the 23 Months % Chg is compared to December 31, 2014.

October 2016: Who Will Be President?

businessmen-voting-sira-anamwong-id-100459607

Voting in a Free Democratic Society, a Great Privilege.

 

By Larry C. Paxton

During the first part of October stock exchanges were mostly positive. But during the second half of the month there was an increasingly negative tone, mostly related to the US Presidential Race. Out of 21 trading days the DJIA and S&P500 had 7 gain days and 14 loss days. The NASDAQ showed the widest variability with 8 days positive, 13 days negative. October 11 saw a change of -1.54% based on earnings reports and down oil prices. The other extreme was October 24, up 1.00% based on some big merger/acquisition deals. The longest gain streaks for all 3 exchanges was 2 days,  the DJIA longest loss streak was 2 days but both the NASDAQ and S&P500 had 5 day loss streaks that ended the month, caused primarily by the tightening of the US Presidential Race and the increasing uncertainty over who will win.

The PBR1000 companies in The Top 5 Tables had an emphasis on energy related companies, some planning to emerge from bankruptcy soon, and mostly from the 2nd half of The PBR1000.
