Bear Of The Day: Excel Maritime Carriers (EXM) Posted: 17 May 2011 11:02 PM PDT We downgrade our recommendation on Excel Maritime (NYSE:EXM) to Underperform backed by the gloomy near-term prospects of the drybulk shipping industry. This sector is facing serious challenges, where the spot vessel rates collapsed even below the rate during the recession.

Growth & Income Stock: First Financial Bankshares, Inc. Posted: 17 May 2011 11:02 PM PDT Back in late 2008 when the financial industry was collapsing and over-leveraged banks were begging for a bailout, First Financial Bankshares, Inc.

USD/JPY Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:29 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com The USD/JPY pair rallied on Tuesday, and broke above the 81 level, the top of a support zone that should hold this pair up due to central banks being lower. The 80 level has been significant to this pair over time, and as long as we are trading above it, we want to buy only. A break lower has us sitting on our hands.

USD/CHF Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:28 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com The USD/CHF pair fell Tuesday, and is currently testing old resistance at the 0.88 mark to see if it will continue its fall. The pair looks decidedly weak, and has been in a longer-term downtrend over the last several years. This looks like an important level, so a break of 0.88 to the downside could send the USD on the back foot in this pair.

USD/CAD Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:27 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com The USD/CAD pair moved higher, but only to fall lower at the end of the session on Tuesday. The candle formation is a shooting star, and is also right at the 100 moving average, as well as the 0.97 area. This should be resistive in the long run, and could present a selling opportunity as well. The trend is down, so this certainly makes sense.

NZD/USD Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:26 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com   The NZD/USD pair rose from the 0.78 support level today, and looks like it is ready to try and keep consolidating between that mark and 0.80 for the upper range. This wouldn't be a continuation of the recent activity, and would also give the pair the chance to rest after the long move up in such a short time. The more likely direction is up for the moment. A break of the lows of both Monday and Tuesday sends this pair down to the 0.75 level. Originally posted … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Balance Transfer Credit Cards

GBP/USD Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:25 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com The GBP/USD pair gained during the Tuesday session, bouncing from the fall it has seen lately. However, we are not near any clear and concise support or resistance, and therefore aren't looking for a trade to be fired off in the near term. A break above 1.64 is needed for us to get interested in buying again. Below is too choppy for us to sell at the moment.

GBP/JPY Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:23 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com The GBP/JPY pair rallied significantly during the Tuesday session. The area below, the 130 mark – has been significant support in the past, and it looks like this is still true. Because of this, the pair is in "buy only" mode as the central banks are under that figure, and the pair looks unlikely to drive much lower soon.

GBP/CHF Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:22 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com The GBP/CHF pair fell hard after rising during the Tuesday session. This shows exactly how weak this pair really is over the long run. The pair has been decidedly bearish over the last few years, and looks like it wants to continue this sentiment. Selling rallies has made money in this pair for several years now, and we don't see that changing.

EUR/USD Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:21 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com The EUR/USD had a very bullish day on Tuesday, and looks set to try and breakout from the highs on Monday. In fact, at that point it becomes a buy signal as the trend line from the financial meltdown, the 100 day moving average, and the support and resistance area between 1.40 and 1.42 as well. Things will certainly be looking good for the EUR at that point. We don't sell until we see 1.40 broken decisively.

EUR/JPY Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:19 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com The EUR/JPY pair rallied during the Tuesday session, breaking back above the all-important 115 area. This looks very bullish for this pair, but it still has to clear the 116.80 level in order to have a nice run back to 120 or higher. In the meantime, we are waiting to see if it can break through that level. If it can – we will be long. Selling is still tempting fate as the central banks are down there – somewhere.

EUR/CHF Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:18 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com The EUR/CHF had a bullish start to the day on Tuesday, but fell rapidly later in trading. The trend is certainly down, and the fact that a rally couldn't be continued shows how bearish this pair really is. There isn't a technical signal to sell though, as there is a massive support area to be found around the 1.23 area. Look for rallies to sell.

AUD/USD Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:16 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com The AUD/USD pair moved higher during Tuesday trading, showing the 1.05 area to be supportive for the time being. It is a fairly decent area for support – so this came as no real surprise. The trend is up, so this market is certainly a buy as long as we hold above the 1.05 mark. A break of 1.05 wouldn't get us bearish – just ready to look for longs at 1.02 or so.

AUD/NZD Technical Analysis May 18, 2011 Posted: 17 May 2011 07:15 PM PDT By ForexMansion.com The AUD/NZD pair barely move on Tuesday, and seems to be where money goes to die lately. This pair simply isn't moving on the whole, and is basically a scalper's market at best. The pair needs to break below the 1.32 level for more selling, or above the recent highs at 1.37 to begin to get long again.
