Stock Market Bull Bear Stocks Investing Investor

The Stock Market Bull decides to go Christmas shopping in Week 50, The Stock Market Bear creates chaos in the pasture.

By Larry C. Paxton

The US Stock Market Week 50 Summary:

After his victory last week, The Stock Market Bull decided to reward himself by going Christmas shopping during Week 50. Predictably, The Stock Market Bear was quick to notice. On Monday he charged into undefended pasture and took a big bite out of the livestock. Although not as severe, he was able to repeat this on Tuesday. On Wednesday The Stock Market Bull returned to the pasture to watch on his new big TV screen Federal Reserve Chairman Powell‘s comments following the two day  Federal Open Market Committee meeting. The reassuring words resulted in an easy daily win for The Stock Market Bull, who departed for more holiday shopping on Thursday. Once again, The Stock Market Bear saw his chance and pounced on some more livestock to take the day, with the NASDAQ being particularly affected. This continued on Friday with the DJIA taking the major blood letting for the day. The Stock Market Bear takes Week 50 with a 3-0 clear result, taking 12 of the 15 sessions across the three major US stock indices, and everyone wondering if The Stock Market Bear should really be called The Stock Market Grinch.

The US Stock Market November 2021 Summary:

Week 44, the first week in November, was all about The Stock Market Bull where out of 15 trading sessions across the three major US stock indices he closed with records in 14 of those sessions, a remarkable accomplishment. But like the gravitational law of physics that says what goes up must come down, The Stock Market Bear returned the favor in Week 45, but only needed 7 of the 15 sessions to take the week. In Week 46 The Stock Market Bear took the DJIA, The Stock Market Bull dominated in the NASDAQ closing with records, and they split the S&P500, but that included a record near the close of the week, with the result being a 2-1 mixed win for The Stock Market Bull. For Week 47, a basically 3 days and a half day trading week due to the US Thanksgiving holiday, The Stock Market Bear had a strong close on Black Friday, famous as the first shopping day of the Christmas season, as a gift from COVID-19, as the fast spreading Omnicore variant became the headline news. This continued into the last two days in November in Week 48. So, The Stock Market Bull’s strong start at the beginning of November was overtaken by The Stock Market Bear at the end of the month, but produced only a 2-1 monthly mixed win because The Stock Market Bull was able to hold onto his NASDAQ gains by the slimmest of margins.

The Week 49 of 2021 US Stock Market News Recap

Stock Market Bull Bear Stocks Investing PBR1000

What Omnicore COVID-19 variant crisis? The Stock Market Bull charges back with a big 3-0 win in Week 49 of 2021.

By Larry C. Paxton

The US Stock Market Week 49 Summary:

Like Week 48, The Stock Market Bull aggressively took over the pasture on Monday of Week 49. But unlike the previous week, he kept gaining ground on Tuesday and Wednesday, but at a decreasing pace. The Stock Market Bear saw the opening and took Thursday. But this angered The Stock Market Bull who came back loudly snorting on Friday. Throughout Week 49 the economic news was a little mixed, but the news on the new Omnicore COVID-19 variant indicated that while it spread faster the effects were much milder than other variants. The Stock Market Bull gets a clear 3-0 Week 49 victory and prevents The Stock Market Bear from getting the trifecta after his two weeks of wins. What awaits us in Week 50?

The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks November 2020 12 Month Report Card

December 5, 2021 by

The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks November 2020 12 Month Report Card

Stocks PBR25 PBR1000 Report Card Investing Investor

Like October 2020, The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks 12 Month Report Card for November 2020 gets a ‘D’ unless you want to make just one change, which would then get it an ‘A’ grade!

By Larry C. Paxton

Welcome to The November 2020 The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks 12 Month Report Card.

As investors we count on professional stock analysts to provide comprehensive and diligent research to come up with their best take on how stocks will perform over the next 12 months. We then use that information to help us make stock buy, hold and sell decisions.

The PBR25 Premise

The premise of The PBR25 is that there is a high probability of success for investing in stocks when a large enough number professional stock analysts through their extensive research determine that a stock is a “Buy” and also forecasts a significant return over the next 12 months. PBRMarketTools assigns a Report Card grade based on how the professional stock analysts did.

Last 12 Months Influences

It is difficult to forecast a result with much accuracy over a 12 month period. For example, the primary impact in November 2020 continued to be the COVID-19 pandemic. The world, including the US, was deep into the COVID-19 pandemic, which created a lot of unemployment, affected many economic sectors like hospitality and travel services, closed schools, forced people to work from home, and much more. It was also the month of a very contentious US Presidential and general election process, which also created a lot of confusion and strife. There are a lot more factors, but this is not meant to be an opinions post. It is a piece focused on the review of the recommendations stock analysts came up with at the end of November 2020 and the actual results 12 months later at the end of November 2021. PBRMarketTools is calling this a Report Card.

For this November 2020 Report Card we used stock data and forecasts from November 30, 2020, and compare it to the actual results on November 30, 2021.

Creating The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks List for November 2020

The starting point is the prestigious The PBR1000 US Public Companies, produced monthly by PBRMarketTools. To be included in The PBR1000 the 1,000 companies must meet the following criteria:

  • The companies must be publicly traded on the NYSE, NYSE American or NASDAQ stock exchanges, with a very few temporarily trading on the Over-The-Counter market because they are transitioning from bankruptcy.
  • They must be headquartered in the US or have primary operations in the US.
  • They must have generated at least $1 billion in revenues in their most recent full fiscal year.
  • They must file an annual 10-K form with the US Securities and Exchange Commission in US dollars
  • Each of the 1,000 companies is given a primary ranking based on revenues, with the company having the highest revenue amount ranked 1(currently Walmart). There are 27 secondary rankings in The PBR1000 based on other criteria as well.

Each month the 12 month estimates and recommendations by stock analysts are updated on The PBR1000. The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks list for November 2020 was then created using the following process:

  • At any point in time The PBR1000 has around 15,000 stock analyst recommendations.
  • The PBR1000 is sorted several times to come up with The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks, made up of stocks that are rated a “Buy” by analysts, have a 12 Month Targeted % Change of at least +20%, and have at least 10 “Buy” recommendations.

Actual Results for The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks for Novenber 2021

  • None of The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks for November 2020 companies were acquired and none did a stock split, so no data was altered for this report.

Following is a table of characteristics and 12 month actual results for the The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks on November 30, 2020, which we are calling the November 2020 report card.

Conclusions, Observations, Validations and Realities

  • If you had bought 1 share each of The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks at the closing price on November 30, 2020, you would have achieved a +18.30% gain 12 months later at the close on November 30, 2021, less than the 21.41% estimate, a good return, but below the 12 month forecast, above the DJIA, but below the returns on the NASDAQ, and S&P500 indices. For this reason The November 2020 The PBR25 gets a ‘D’ on its 12 month Report Card.
  • On the other hand, the Amazon(AMZN) stock price was over half the total of 25 stocks, it forecasted a 20.91% return, actual was 10.70%. If you take out AMZN the results would have been a forecast of a 22.02% gain, actual would have been 27.45%, which would have exceeded the forecast and over returns on the DJIA, NASDAQ, and S&P500 indices. The November 2020 12 Month Report Card would have then been an ‘A’ grade.
  • It is difficult to forecast out 12 months with any great accuracy, there are just too many variables and uncertainties.
  • However, it does demonstrate that The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks is a valid methodology and process for that particular month.
  • Our demonstration account, called The Charlie Fund, uses the popular “Dollar Cost Averaging Investment Strategy” with the monthly The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks as the primary research tool. For the 12 Month Report Card period it achieved a greater than 50% return, a further validation of the methodology.
  • There are no guarantees! The reality is that there will always be ups and downs in the stock market and people make stocks buy, hold and sell decisions based on a wide range of  logical and emotional criteria, input from knowledgeable hard-working experts and well meaning friends, and if the sky is blue today. But the historical data is pretty convincing that stocks will trend up at an above average investment rate over the long haul.

Additional Information

  • The details of this summary, including company names and the over 200 fields of information for each company, were extracted from the updated The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks MS-Excel worksheet for November 2021, and has been distributed to The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks Subscribers for their personal use and further research
  • The next 12 Month Report Card will be for December 2020, and should be available early to mid January, 2022.

The Week 48 of 2021 US Stock Market News Recap

Recap The Stock Market Bear Stocks Investing

The Stock Market Bear gets the Week 48 win thanks to his new good buddy the Omicron COVID-19 variant, with Fed Chair Powell also contributing per his comments on possible Fed actions.

By Larry C. Paxton

The US Stock Market Week 48 Summary:

It was a back and forth Week 48 with The Stock Market Bull charging out of the gate on Monday and having a big day. The Stock Market Bear took it personally and came out slashing on Tuesday and overtook the Bull’s lead, thanks to the announcement of a new COVID-19 variant, named Omicron, and also Federal Reserve Chairman Powell’s comments on possible Fed monetary policy changes regarding its tapering program and raising interest rates on short federal short term funds. This moved forward into Wednesday where more blood was shed in the markets. The Stock Market Bull struck back on Thursday, but more was still needed to catch up to the losses. The Stock Market Bear closed out the week with additional information on the variant, Fed policy options, and a below US employment situation report. Chalk up Week 48 of 2021 to The Stock Market Bear who gets a complete 3-0 win.

This has also caused demand-pull inflation that is affecting overall business conditions.”
  • The IHS Markit November 2021 US Composite PMI Output Index is at 57.2, October was at 57.6, September 55.0, November 2020 58.6, November 2019 52.0. “While business expectations for the year ahead rose in November, the vast majority of the survey data were collected prior to the news of the Omicron variant, which casts a renewed shadow of uncertainty over the outlook for business and poses a downside risk to near-term growth prospects.“

  • Thursday, December 2, 2021

  • ***No economic news releases today.

  • Wednesday, December 1, 2021

  • The US Federal Reserve releases its Beige Book summary of the 12 districts for data through 11/19/21. Summary: “Economic activity grew at a modest to moderate pace in most Federal Reserve Districts during October and early November. Several Districts noted that despite strong demand, growth was constrained by supply chain disruptions and labor shortages….”
  • ADP says the Preliminary November 2021 US Monthly Change in US Employment-Small Businesses(1-49 Employees) is at +115,000, Mid-Sized(50-499) +142,000, Large-Sized(500 or more) +277,000, making the November 2021 US Monthly Change in US Employment Total at +534,000, October was at +571,000, September +568,000, November 2020 307,000, November 2019 +67,000. “November’s job gains bring the three month average to 543,000 monthly jobs added, a modest uptick from the job pace earlier this year. Job gains have eclipsed 15 million since the recovery began, though 5 million jobs short of pre-pandemic levels. Service providers, which are more vulnerable to the pandemic, have dominated job gains this year. It’s too early to tell if the Omicron variant could potentially slow the jobs recovery in coming months.”
  • The US Dept of Commerce/Census says the Preliminary October 2021 US New Construction Spending Annual Rate-Residential is at $783.9 billion, Non-Residential $814.2 billion, making October 2021 US New Construction Spending Annual Rate Total at $1,598.0 billion, September was at $1,594.8 billion, August $1,596.8 billion, October 2020 $1,471.7 billion, October 2019 $1,386.8 billion.

Panelists remain focused on the importance of improving supply chain issues to respond to ongoing high levels of demand.”
  • The IHS Markit November 2021 US Manufacturing PMI Index is at 58.3, October was at 58.4, September 60.7, November 2020 56.7, November 2019 52.6. “Broad swathes of US manufacturing remain hamstrung by supply chain bottlenecks and difficulties filling staff vacancies. Although November brought some signs of supply chain problems easing slightly to the lowest recorded for six months, widespread shortages of inputs meant production growth was again severely constrained….”

  • Tuesday, November 30, 2021

  • The US Dept of the Treasury says on 11/26/21 the US National Debt-Public is at $22.649 trillion, Intragovernmental $6.260, making the 11/26/21 US National Debt Total at $28.909 trillion, 10/29/21 was also at $28.909 trillion, 09/30 21 $28.429 trillion, 11/30/20 $27.446 trillion, 11/29/19 $23.076 trillion.

More data will be required to understand whether this demand surge represents simply an acceleration of purchases that would have occurred over the next several years, or reflects a secular change in locational preferences. September’s report is consistent with either explanation.”
  • The American Automobile Assn says the 11/30/21 US Average Price for a Gallon of Regular Gas is at $3.390, 10/29/21 was at $3.401, 09/30/21 $3.189, 11/30/20 $2.127, 11/29/19 $2.587. “It’s too soon to tell if fears of a global economic slowdown caused by the Omicron variant will push oil prices lower for the long term… But for now, the upward pricing pressure due to tightened supply and high demand seems to have abated, and that will likely result in pump prices stabilizing.”
  • MNI Indicators/ISM Chicago reports that the November 2021 Chicago Business Barometer(>50 gaining) is at 61.8, October was at 68.4, September 64.7, November 2020 58.2, November 2019 46.3. “… the lowest reading since February, driven by a slow-down in new orders.”
  • The US Dept of the Treasury says the 11/30/21 Closing Yield on a 10 Year Treasury Note is at 1.43%, 10/29/21 was at 1.55%, 09/30/21 1.52%, 11/30/20 0.84%, 11/29/19 1.78%.

stock market stocks bull bear PBR1000

The Omicron variant of COVID-19 and Fed Chair Powell’s comments on accelerating tapering gave The Stock Market Bear the edge on the last day of November, but it was only enough for a mixed 2-1 result.

The US Stock Market November 2021 Summary:

Week 44 started November with The Stock Market Bull continuing where he left off in October by notching his 5th consecutive weekly victory, which also included many new record high closes. The Stock Market Bear finally clawed his way to a Week 45 3-0 win. This alarmed The Stock Market Bull who tried to take charge of the pasture, but having to settle for a Week 46 2-1 mixed result. The Stock Market Bear made a statement with a bounce back Week 47 3-0 win. At the start of Week 48 The Stock Market Bull had an excellent Monday, but the news that evening was not good, mostly about the uncertainties regarding the new Omnicron COVID-19 variant making itself known in Africa and Europe. Then Tuesday morning Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell talked about accelerating the reduction of the tapering program because of apparent stubbornness of higher and longer lasting inflation rates. At the end of November the bottom line was a mixed 2-1 result in favor of The Stock Market Bear. The Stock Market Bull maintains a significant lead year-to-date. It remains highly unlikely that The Stock Market Bear becomes The Grinch Who Stole Christmas.

Stock Market Bull Bear Stocks Investing ThePBR1000 ThePBR25

The Stock Market Bull had a mixed win going for him through Thursday, but the new COVID-19 variant became The Stock Market Bear’s BFF, and he gets the 3-0 win for Week 47 of 2021.

By Larry C. Paxton

The US Stock Market Week 47 Summary:

The Stock Market Bull started out Week 47 by focusing on the DJIA, so The Stock Market Bear decided to take on the tech heavy and volatile NASDAQ, and took aim at the S&P500 as well. This dance worked well on Monday and Tuesday. On Wednesday the roles reversed with The Stock Market Bull capturing the NASDAQ and S&P500, The Stock Market Bear got the DJIA. Going into the US Thanksgiving Day Holiday it appeared that a mixed result was going to be the most likely result. But The Stock Market Bear received an early Black Friday gift as another coronavirus variant appears to be spreading across the globe. The Stock Market Bear took advantage of this early news and on Friday roared throughout the day as he took a 2%+ bite out of all 3 major US stock indices. The Stock Market Bear takes Week 47 with a dramatic come from behind 3-0 win. With only two trading days left in November he also has the edge for the month, but The Stock Market Bull remains well ahead YTD.
