Market Talk / September 10th - 16th

All I know is the Dow breadth MCSUM is approaching its' December '05 highs. I suppose it could be the weather changes - seasonal.

I'll take an educated guess on the CSI for today......+5, +3, -9 without any FV.....if we get an FV, there is no telling....

A lot of diving for the G fund this morning!

Anyone care to clue me in? Someone see a shark?

Monday following Quad Witching is typically down. Very little ups historically.

...And the rebalancing of the S&P 500 COB today.

Monday following Quad Witching is typically down. Very little ups historically.

Sentiment Trader points out that when the S&P went up at least 1% during expiration week then buying today's open and holding for a week would have resulted in only 1 positive trade out of 7.

Anyone notice the price of natural gas lately? It's at a two year low sitting at about $4.75 last I looked, compared to near $15 after the hurricane last year.

I hope we actually see a change in our gas bill this winter - or does it only change when natural gas moves higher?

Yep and the nice trading range ECA is in.

Be thankful you don't have oil - I'm in the position of either giving up my (rather substantial) price lock deposit, or paying something like $2.89/gallon all winter.

The home oil companies say they will charge market price unless the cap is hit, but they never do once they get you locked.

...but if there's one thing this years markets have been doing all year... it's been fooling the daylights out of us. :suspicious:
Day trading the I Fund is risky business. If Monday sinks, we'll get it back after the Wednesday Fed remarks. JMHO.
