Hot Option Plays: Tops Challenged End Of Day

Posted: 12 Sep 2012 03:17 PM PDT

Cusick’s Corner 09-12-2012
The tight range continues into the Fed tomorrow but the overall trend continues to be owned by the Bulls. The Large and Small Caps, SPY & IWM, continue to run to new highs. Here’s a sector that has exhibited some impressive upside momentum — Housing, along with these two groups ITB & XHB, the moves today have broken to the upside through channel resistance. So as these resistance points are broken, we need to watch these levels to see if they now start to act … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Mortgage Rates, Credit Card Rewards or Best Credit Cards


Stocks Watchlist For Thursday, September 13

Shares of PulteGroup, Inc.(NYSE:PHM) closed the day gaining 6% to a new historic mark for stock at $15.55, near the highs of the day at $15.7. The stock has been one of the most amazing runs of the past three months. I’ll be watching the stock on Thursday, looking for a follow through move. At this point we have to start thinking about just how high PHM will go. As long as the stock stay above $13.73, the short-term bullish scenario still intact.

String Pushers

Posted: 12 Sep 2012 01:51 PM PDT

While the Fed and Wall Street keep pushing the storyline that ultra-low yields, endless credit, and other central bank magic can do more than just pump up (already overinflated) share prices, decimate the economic wellbeing of people who are trying to survive on their savings, and further undermine the structural underpinnings of the financial system, it would appear that those who operate on Main Street’s front lines see things differently [italics mine]:

Hot Option Plays: Watching Ags

Posted: 12 Sep 2012 12:17 PM PDT

Cusick’s Corner
Today’s session had a tight range (I know that I sound like a broken record) but we did have volatility and a sense of tension, VIX +.43%. One sector that has the potential to move on the open tomorrow could be the Agricultural sector. The move down in the buck has been a decent upside catalyst but the USDA monthly world supply numbers are out at 8:30am ET and segments like fertilizers, farm machinery, and seed names could all have some potentially volatile trading post the … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Mortgage Rates, Credit Card Rewards or Best Credit Cards


Hot Option Plays: Getting Toppy?

Cusick’s Corner 09-12-2012
The NASDAQ started to slide yesterday in front of the AAPL news (which as I type this is a non-event), so I want to see if support is challenged in the Tech sector into the After Hours. We saw a similar reaction early in the morning when the Germans announced their vote in favor of balance sheet expansion and the Euro Currency, FXE, halted its ascent and now has pulled back only to consolidate off the highs. Watch for a potential challenge on the Euro currency, FXE … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Mortgage Rates, Credit Card Rewards or Best Credit Cards
