EB Watch List Update Report
Dear Members,
KEY EARNINGS REPORTS:
Wednesday: A, CSCO, DE, M, NTES, SNE, VIPS
Thursday: ADP, ADSK, AMAT, ATK, JCP, JWN, PBH, SI, WMT
MARKET NOTE:
The biggest news of the day thus far is the breakdown on the 10 year treasury yield ($TNX) beneath significant support at 2.57%. A close beneath represents a breakout to the upside in treasuries and that - generally speaking - is bearish for equities. Yet, on the positive side, I see that expected volatility (both VIX and VXN) is down despite weakening equity prices. Mixed signals for sure.
ADDITIONS TO WATCH LISTS:
There are no additions today.
BRIEF COMMENTS ON SELECT WATCH LIST STOCKS:
Short Watch List:
FLR - Again has failed at trendline resistance.
LL - Positive divergence remains in play as it falls back near 81.50 price support. If in on the short side, I like taking profits here.
SBH - Came up just a couple pennies shy of testing its falling 20 day EMA. It hasn't triggered our Initial Short Entry of 26.30, but the 20 day EMA wouldn't be a bad entry point either.
Large Cap Watch List:
CNP - Triggered both entry points recently, then rallied to hold its Closing Stop on Wednesday's close. Nice rally today.
FLEX - Continues to threaten a breakout above 9.60. More volume would help.
HSP - Very strong stock technically. Any upcoming 20 day EMA test would represent a nice entry point.
Mid Cap Watch List:
No new comments today.
Small Cap Watch List:
There are no Small Cap Watch List stocks at this time.
DELETIONS FROM OUR WATCH LISTS:
There are no deletions today unless closing stops are violated.
Happy trading!
