After an embarrassing March The Stock Market Bull charges onto the pasture and takes charge in April. But he still has quite a way to go to fully recover lost territory.

The April 2020 News Summary: It was another month of Coronavirus news and its effect on the world. As of late 04/30/20 the John Hopkins University CSSE COVID-19 Dashboard shows 3,271,692 cases confirmed worldwide with 232,807 deaths. In the US its 1,056,466 cases with 62,850 deaths. The response has included lockdowns, social distancing, temporary closures of businesses and schools, less traffic, and the pleasant side effects of bluer skies and being more aware birds chirping during a greening and flowering springtime. It is hopefully also a time for families to enjoy the playing and laughing with and getting to know better precious little ones. It has also been a time of great collaborations as companies work together to make ventilators, face masks, gowns, and other related medical aids, as well as accelerated development of new tests and vaccines. Medical practices started using telehealth capabilities. Only emergency situations were actively handled at hospitals. Significant internet bandwidth is being used, and seems to be working remarkably well, for on-line meetings, classes, and communications between loved ones. At the end of April some countries, and in the US some states, were starting to relax some restrictions. In the US the federal government launched some aggressive business loans programs and started sending out $1,200 stimulus checks to most adults, $500 for each child. The impact is around $3 trillion of new national debt. Towards the end of the month US economic indices and surveys, with data that often lags a month or two, started showing some of the damage, with just about all sectors down, except for some in technology and pharma. US initial unemployment claims climbed a remarkable 30,000,000 people in April from layoffs and furloughs. There do seem to be some indications that the cases and deaths are leveling off, but because not much is known about COVID-19 there are concerns about the virus recurring again soon and during the next flu season. Efforts to reopen the economy are being received with mixed reactions of optimism and skepticism from politicians, healthcare professionals, business leaders, and the public. Nevertheless, while the US stock exchanges suffered huge losses in February and March, in April there was a major resurgence, with daily activity still having big volatile up and down swings on an almost daily basis. But when the bell rang for April The Stock Market Bear, while still a big presence, lost out to The Stock Market Bull, who finally took over the pasture after some major struggles and prevails to win his first month of 2020 with a 3-0 victory, but there is a lot of ground to make up. Expert opinions remain varied and mixed, with many of them having agendas as well. Stay safe, keep informed, appreciate and thank those on the front lines, and we wish you and your dear ones the best as we all navigate and deal with these uncertain times.

The April 2020 tally YTD is:
The Stock Market Bull: 1 Month
The Stock Market Bear: 2 Months
Mixed Results: 1 Month

Pharmaceuticals are working on therapies that have shown some initial positive results, and manufactures are coming together to make ventilators, face masks, and gowns. On Thursday US President Trump announced a 3 phase plan to re-open the economy starting soon. Over 80 million US stimulus checks have been delivered and more are in process.

The Week 15 News Summary: At the start of the shortened week there appeared some encouraging signs globally that the Coronavirus pandemic may be slowing, even though the US has not seen that yet in major hit areas like New York. Social distancing, wearing facemasks, and frequent washing of hands seems to be helping. Scientists working for major pharmaceuticals, research organizations and government labs are working hard and cooperatively to find cures and develop vaccines for Coronavirus. Manufacturers are ramping up to make more face masks, ventilators, and protective gear. Global economic news is still not solid but everyone pretty much agrees that there will be at least a short term major hit with some saying a full recovery might not happen until well into 2021 based on assumptions that could change rapidly and dramatically one way or another. The US economy took another big hit as the week’s initial unemployment jobs claims were over 6.6 million. Companies are still doing layoffs, furloughs, taking out loans, suspending share buyback programs, and senior executives are taking significant salary cuts as strategies for preserving cash at this time. Retailers and restaurants are adapting to and promoting curbside pickup and delivery services. Besides the US $2.2 trillion stimulus bill which is starting to be implemented, the US Fed at the end of the week announced a $2.3 trillion loan package for lenders, primarily to be used by the major banking systems to support businesses. The Saudi Arabia-Russia oil production and prices war continues, but there was some news that negotiations are ongoing and the issues could be resolved soon. The major US stock exchanges reacted positively in Week 15. The Stock Market Bull charged onto the pasture, appearing to be COVID-19 free now, and severely gored The Stock Market Bear, as all exchanges were up over 10% for the week. Nevertheless, The Stock Market Bear still has a significant lead year-to-date. The Markets experts are all over the place on whether to buy stocks now, hold off, or get out altogether. This is Holy Week for many people across the world, and there are many prayers being lifted up for health and minimal economic impact. Let’s hope those prayers continue to be lifted and answered in a positive way in the weeks to come.

The March 2020 News Summary: The news of the month was dominated by the COVID-19 virus pandemic. Stock exchanges worldwide have taken a significant dip. World and US economic data, which usually lags 1-3 months, is starting to show some of the impact. Supply chains are becoming disrupted. There is a run at grocery stores on almost all items, essential and non-essential. In the US manufacturing of face masks and much needed ventilators is ramping up. New York City has been especially hard hit, as well as California and the State of Washington. People are being strongly encouraged, and in some states it has been mandated, to stay at home and avoid contact with others as much as possible. A massive national $2 trillion coronavirus stimulus bill was created, passed and was signed into law quickly and with bipartisan support, another $2 trillion is being suggested for infrastructure issues. In China the rate of new cases has started dropping dramatically, in the US the forecast is that April will be the big month. The Stock Market Bear and his friend COVID-19 had several big feast days during the month. The Stock Market Bull tried to fight back and did have a few significant recovery days, but it was not nearly enough. The Stock Market Bear is undefeated so far in 2020, seems to have the momentum and appears energized to possibly do more of the same in April. Expert opinions vary, many of whom have their own agendas. Stay safe, do your research and due diligence, and wish you all the best in April!

By Larry C. Paxton

The PBRMarketTools US Stock Exchanges Recap for February 2020 ending 02/28/20:

DJIA ends Week 9 and February at 25,409.36, -12.36% from last Friday, -10.07 MTD, -10.96% QTD/YTD, -14.02% from record 29,551.42 set 02/12/20.

The Week 9 and February of 2020 News Summary: The primary focus globally has escalated to be just the novel coronavirus respiratory disease, still mostly in China, but increasing numbers in other countries of the world. Containment is still uncertain, the economic impact still unmeasurable to any degree of accuracy. In the US President Trump gave a speech and took questions at a press conference, and appointed Vice President Pence to lead the effort to continue to contain coronavirus. President Trump also had a state visit to India, the largest democracy in the world, negotiated for a new treaty, and announced India’s purchase of $3 billion of US military goods. In the US economic indices continue to be mostly positive, but most surveys and analyses are based on results prior to the increased news about the coronavirus. The same can be said for US corporate earnings reports, which were mostly positive, but many provided guidance with caveats about future earnings based on, once again, coronavirus. The Stock Market Bull was noticeably absent during the week, The Stock Market Bear, aka SARS CoV-2, prevailed significantly every day to take a big win 3-0 for Week 9 and for February.

The PBR1000 January 2020 Stocks & Commodities Snapshots

February 4, 2020 by admin

January 2020 The PBR1000:
A Mixed Start for the New Year

January closed out in mixed territory, hit by the China coronavirus scare, an impeachment trial of the US president, but a good US economy for an interesting start to 2020.

By Larry C. Paxton

The PBRMarketTools US Stock Exchanges Recap for January 2020 ending 01/31/20:

DJIA ends January at 28,256.03, -2.53% from last Friday, -0.99% MTD/QTD/YTD, -3.72% from record 29,348.10 set 01/17/20.

NASDAQ ends January at 9,150.94, -1.76% from last Friday, +1.99% MTD/QTD/YTD, -2.68% from record 9,402.48 set 01/23/20.

SPX ends January at 3,225.52, -2.12% from last Friday, -0.16% MTD/QTD/YTD, -3.13% from record 3,329.62 set 01/17/20.

The Week 5 and Month 1 of 2020 News Summary: The first 3 weeks of January were a carry forward from the end of 2019 with business as usual. But then the world was hit with the news about the coronavirus originating in China and being spread globally, with a warning of catastrophic consequences if left uncontained. Globally governments and businesses are wrestling with what to do, are attempting to be proactive, a state of emergency has been issued by the World Health Organization, and by many nations, including the US. The other major news item is the US Senate impeachment trial of President Trump. After 3 day opening arguments by the US House Managers and then 3 days by Counsel for the President, a 2 day Q&A period, the US Senate voted to not allow witnesses by a 49-51 tally. It appears highly likely that President Trump will be acquitted. The Democrat presidential candidates, 4 of whom are senators involved in the impeachment trial, get their first test in Iowa in the opening week of February. On the international stage the UK will officially accomplish Brexit, with results uncertain for the UK and Europe. President Trump signed the US/Mexico/Canada(USMCA) trade agreement to replace NAFTA, with promises that it will be fairer and bring manufacturing jobs back to the US. During the month the US/China Phase 1 trade agreement was signed by leaders of the countries. Overall, the US economy continued to show moderate growth, the Federal Open Market Committee kept short term federal interest rates at the 1.50-1.75%, and consumer and business surveys continued to indicate optimism for the next 6 months. In the early weeks of the month The Stock Market Bull ruled the pasture and new record highs were established. But The Stock Market Bear came out of hibernation, had a voracious appetite, and spurred on by the coronavirus scare, savagely attacked The Stock Market Bull, chased him out of the pasture and started feasting on the herd. The Stock Market Bear easily won Week 5 3-0, but the NASDAQ prevented him from also claiming the month, which ended with a 2-1 mixed result.

The Week 5 of 2020 tally YTD is:
The Stock Market Bull: 2 weeks
The Stock Market Bear: 2 weeks
Mixed Results: 1 week

The Month 1 of 2020 tally YTD is:
The Stock Market Bull: 0 months
The Stock Market Bear: 0 months
Mixed Results: 1 month

The PBR1000 December 2019 Stocks & Commodities Snapshots

December 2019 The PBR1000:

A Month and Year for The Stock Market Bull

The Stock Market Bull totally dominates The Stock Market Bear in 2019, and makes it look easy. Can it continue in 2020?

By Larry C. Paxton

The December 2019 News Summary: On the international news front, after over a year of negotiations, President Trump announced on the last day of the year that a US/China Phase 1 trade deal would be signed on 01/15/20. During the month the US Congress passed the US/Mexico/Canada trade agreement that will replace NAFTA. In the UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his conservative party won the general election by a landslide and he has proclaimed the UK withdrawal from the EU, known as Brexit, on 01/31/20, trade deal or not. In Israel Benjamin Netanyahu won his Likud party nomination, the general election is scheduled for March, 2020, in the hopes that a coalition government can be formed. N Korea threatened a “Christmas Present” for the US, nothing happened, but N Korea continues to do some sword rattling. US economic news was mostly positive with modest/moderate growth forecast, and a much lower probability of a recession in 2020 by most economists. To help, Congress passed a $1.4 trillion spending bill that will go through September 2020. US politics was the big issue for the month as the US House held its hearings and then on political party lines voted to impeach President Trump. In some political wrangling apparently the needed documentation for the Senate to have a trial is being delayed, but the trial should take place in early 2020. As for the US stock exchanges, record highs fell throughout the month, a complete reversal from December 2018’s meltdown. The Stock Market Bear had no chance against a charged up The Stock Market Bull who easily took both the month and the year, one of the best ever.

The December 2019 tally YTD is:
The Stock Market Bull: 10 months
The Stock Market Bear: 2 months
Mixed Results: 0 months

The PBR1000 November 2019 Stocks & Commodities Snapshots

December 3, 2019 by admin

November 2019 The PBR1000:

Another Big Month for The Stock Market Bull

It was another big month for The PBR1000 and The Stock Market Bull as many new records were set.

By Larry C. Paxton

The November 2019 News Summary: At the beginning of the last week it seemed the US/China trade negotiations were going quite well, but at the end not so much, in part due to the US House and Senate passing a resolution backing Hong Kong as a democracy, which was then signed by President Trump. The US economy was best summed up by the Federal Reserve’s Beige Book which said the economy is expanding modestly. The month ended with a relatively quiet week for the Impeachment Inquiry because both US houses were on vacation. November became another victory for The Stock Market Bull who took November 3-0 in convincing style. However, The Stock Market Bear did make an appearance on the shortened Black Friday and last trading day of the month, which brought back some memories of last December’s meltdown. Hopefully last year’s history will not repeat itself this year.

The Month 11 of 2019 tally YTD is:
The Stock Market Bull: 9 months
The Stock Market Bear: 2 months
Mixed Results: 0 months

October 2019 The PBR1000:

The Stock Market Bull Takes Charge

The Stock Market Bull takes charge of The PBR1000 and has a commanding lead year-to-date.

By Larry C. Paxton

The October and 10th Month 2019 News Summary: The US/China trade negotiations continued to be in flux as news was mixed throughout the month. At the end a Phase One deal appears to have been agreed upon that will be signed soon. The UK Brexit from the European Union has been extended past the 10/31/19 date, and the UK has set 12/12/19 for general elections. Canada‘s Justin Trudeau gets re-elected, but will have to find some coalition partners to be an effective leader. In a controversial decision President Trump says US troops will be withdrawn from Syria, Turkey invades Syria, in cooperation between Turkey and the Kurds the US kills the notorious leader of ISIS, and the Middle East conflict continues to be a difficult puzzle for finding peace. Hong Kong protests continue over concerns about its future as a democracy while being a part of China. US economic news was more pleasant as summarized by the Federal Open Market Committee after its late October meeting, saying that the US economy continues to grow at a moderate rate, employment and wages are in a good spot, and a recession is not eminent. The United Auto Workers strike with General Motors ends and sets the stage for negotiations with other auto manufacturers. The Stock Market Bear took the first week of October, but the rest of the month was dominated by The Stock Market Bull who won 3-0, the S&P500 broke records at the end of the month with the DJIA and NASDAQ closing in on new highs as well.

The October 2019 tally YTD is:
The Stock Market Bull: 8 months

September 2019 The PBR1000:

The Stock Market Bull Prevails

September 2019 was a significantly less volatile month than August, and 2019 overall has been quite good. Will The Stock Market Bull keep good order in the pasture for the 4th quarter?

By Larry C. Paxton

The September 2019 News Summary: The month ended with US/China trade negotiations scheduled to continue in October. The US Beige Book indicated modest expansion of the US economy. A week later the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee lowered the federal funds rate by 0.25% to 1.75-2.00%. Other US economic data indicates a contraction in manufacturing, but continued modest to moderate growth. In other international news Saudi Arabia oilfields were hit, evidence points to Iran, but repairs are expected to bring production up to previous levels soon. The UK Brexit is still a mess as new Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s efforts have not amounted to much and he is under heavy criticism. The Eurozone is implementing some quantitative easing. Back in the US some severe weather storms affected some coastal areas. But at the end of the month the biggest storm was the US House approving and then aggressively pursuing an impeachment inquiry against President Trump based on his conversations with Ukraine leadership. Overall, it was a good month for the US stock markets with The Stock Market Bull winning 3-0 over The Stock Market Bear who was not able to take advantage of the political and international turmoil.

August 2019 The PBR1000: The Stock Market Bear Returns

The Stock Market Bear returns for his 2nd monthly win in 2019, taking advantage of US/China trade concerns and US political uncertainties and turmoil overriding continued economic growth.

By Larry C. Paxton

The Week 35 and August News Summary: On the international front the G-7 meeting in France concluded with a US/Japan deal and signals by both the US and China that eased trade tensions. The UK continues to struggle on Brexit issues with the October 31 deadline approaching. For the month US/China trade dominated the news, and mostly in a negative way as both sides announced tariffs to go into effect, but mellowed out in the last week. Throughout the month the US economic data continued to indicate modest to moderate growth, but slowing as well, and whispers of recession being imminent increased a little bit. Corporate earnings were mostly mixed with a few pleasant surprises. After a 4 wild weeks run by The Stock Market Bear it was time for The Stock Market Bull to regain the pasture, winning Week 35 easily, but having to concede August to The Stock Market Bear.

The Week 35 of 2019 tally YTD is:
The Stock Market Bull: 17 weeks
The Stock Market Bear: 12 weeks
Mixed Results: 6 weeks

The Monthly 2019 YTD(8 months through August) tally is:
The Stock Market Bull: 6 months
The Stock Market Bear: 2 months
Mixed Results: 0 months
