Comments:
5-27 Dollar reverses down assets reverse up
5-31 IBD and Mikey current trend up
6-1 Whipsaw selloff 10 yr rates 2.96, 30 year to 4.15 6 month lows. Economic weakness story being told for the first time High Yield falling apart indicates credit quality problems coming
Mikey and IBD current trend down
6-3 Bad jobs number story turns decidedly negative
6-6 All world markets now in downtrends Fed remains quiet Mikey Shorts COH@ 60.32, SPG@ 114.92   EWZ @73.22,Buys DZZ@ 6.53, Buys EDZ @18.54 
6-7 Bernanke says economy is weaker says nothing about what the Fed will do. The Dallas Feds Fisher says the Fed has done enough it is now up to the government to make the right fiscal policies.
6-8 Bull bear comes in at 1.86 to 1 bulls after a 800 point decline. Mikey Nasdaq A/D line goes negative for the first time since last August. New lows for this index are higher than March and also the highest since August or pre QE2. In other words the Nasdaq has given up everything it gained on QE2. Put calls are starting to run hot at 1.15 and there is a week and 2 days until expiration. End of Qtr is approaching and the tone is getting negative.
6-9 oversold rally 5 Day was at -4000 for both the NAS and DJI and after today it is at -3300 and -3200 with the Put call at 1.01 and .95 on 10 day more rally may be needed.
6-10 Dollar up strongly to its 50 day ave. market breaks down 172
6-13 Precious metals hit. According to IBD 47% of the stocks are now above their 200 day average the lowest reading of the year. Preferred stocks trend  to down. Keeping my eye on National and Calif Muni markets as they are weakening. The trend is toward quality and away from risk.
Bought BZQ today @ 16.18
6-14 Going into this week put buying was heavy and now....options expiration are just 3 days away poof there go the puts up in smoke with the rally. Like I said 80% of options expire worthless and these counter trend rallies are the reason.

6-15 Dollar back above the 50 day and making a run at reversing trend. Euro and Pd tank. Oil drops 4.49 Platinum now in downtrend only Gold remains up. When it breaks the signal for deflation and economic weakness will be given. Bull/Bear now 36 to 27 or 1.42 bullish 10 day, NYSE AD line at oversold -5788

6-16 Dollar on verge of blowing up Options expire triple witch tomorrow

They talk about Greece but the truth is ( I hate to even deal with reality) the world economy is sinking fast along with the commodities. All the major currencies are falling now against the dollar the Aussie is the strongest and the last to go below 10523 should get someones attention, it does mine.

6-17 Dollar pushed down into expiration

6-20 Working off oversold.

6-21 Greece vote. Market is not oversold now.

6-22 Fed say economy weak will not be a QE 3..Look out!!!

6-23 Bernanke says high oil prices hurting economy. Last year he said it did not hurt economy. So guess what the US will sell oil from reserves. How convenient. That will make you think about which way they are going with the dollar.

6-23 The moment of truth is here for the dollar and Gold. The last holdouts of this new trend change

Gold closes at 1500 below the 50 day but above its closing low of May 5 th of 1480. The dollar closes right on its reversal number of 76.21. Aussie holds 105 on the close but under the 1.0523 that I believe is a downtrend.

6-24 Too many bears time to shake them out

The news is so bad that the bulls are claiming to be contrarians now. They say that the problems are temporary and that stocks will rally by year end. Who knows why should a bad economy get in the way of a stock rally that is what has been going on for the past year.

I hear a lot of talk that stocks are cheap. The dirty little secret is that when stocks are cheap they get cheaper. Like Cranmer says buy high sell higher. IBD says never average down or buy stocks in a correcting market. I would agree with that 100%.

I think the market is in a position to shake out the bears now and has set up for some kind of rally. I would not be surprised if we rally to the 50 day which is now at 12371. That is also the area where the market broke down in early June. What I will look for is a buy signal and  would short the weakness after that signal.
