Deflation seems to be the primary theme in the market as we come to the end of October. The last time the Dow Jones saw its BEV value at -8% was in early July of this year (BEV chart below). It took fifty-three NYSE trading sessions for...
Extreme volatility (Dow Jones 2% Days) continues being a major feature in the market; Tuesday of this week saw the Dow Jones close 2.17% above the previous day’s close. Yes this was a big daily gain, but big daily percentage gains are...
Do you want to see something really ugly? Look no farther than the daily bar chart for the Dow Jones below. Yep, Mr Bear was a bad bear this week! Jeeze Louise, the Dow Jones saw two new all-time highs last week yet closed this week down...
