Dow Jones Analysis 5/18/09 Stock Market Analysis

The following is Technical Analysis for the Dow Jones ( DJIA ) for 5/18/09

Dow Jones Industrial Average Support & Resistance Levels - May 18, 2009

Resistance Levels: 8410, 8500, 8588, 8742

Support Levels: 8000, 7750



The Dow Jones tested the 10 day moving average early in the trading day on Friday but failed again. This is something to keep a close eye on as we may be setting up for a move lower. It is to early to tell yet where the next big move is but the uptrend is still intact from the March lows. A break below 8000 would be very concerning at this point and a retest of 7750 would be in the cards. I will be buying any pullback to the 50 day moving average if it is retested. On the upside, the run to 9000 will begin as soon as we close over 8588. For More Technical Analysis - Go Here

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 8269 on 5/15/09, as the stock market continued the downward move after a slight bounce on Thursday. The Dow Jones Futures were lower in pre market but stocks bounced right after the open. The stock market then reversed downward during the afternoon before bouncing back in the final hour. The volume was very light but it was clear that the financials led the market lower. Looking back at this past week, we received a worse then expected retail sales figure and a higher then expected initial jobless claims number. Investors could be simply selling into the recent strong rally.

I will be watching the Housing Starts and Building Permits data that comes out on Tuesday. This will surely be a market moving event.

Stocks to Buy May 18, 2009 5/18/09

Stocks to Watch - 5/18/09 - Stock Market Ideas

Financials: The financials bounced on Thursday but resumed their weakness on Friday. There haven't been many trading opportunities over the past week but this could all change as we enter a new week starting on May 18th. Below is a list of bank stocks I am watching.

Direxion Financial Bear 3X Shares (NYSE: FAZ)
Direxion Financial Bull 3X Shares (NYSE: FAS) - Check out my FAS Chart for 5.18.09

Citigroup Inc (C:NYSE) - Check out my Citigroup Chart for 5.18.09

Bank of America Corp. (NYSE:BAC) - BAC stock is hovering in the $10's and is now trading $1 below the 10 day moving average. The trade seems to be buy the dips and sell or go short right near the 10 day moving average. Also - Temasek sells entire stake in BofA

Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) - WFC stock is holding strong over $24 still. Guy Adami said on Fast Money he thinks $22 would be a strong buy if Wells Fargo trades down that low.

DryShips Inc. ( DRYS ) - DRYS broke out to the upside on Friday stopping short of the $7.62 low from May 8th. $7.62 is a resistance level to watch going forward. I will be going long on a close above this level or a retracement back to around $5.40-$5.60.

Cell Therapeutics, Inc. ( CTIC ) - I tried to get in CTIC on Friday but got stopped out at $1.20. CTIC made the following highs from last week. $1.28, $1.37, $1.49 - If CTIC breaks up through $1.28 on Monday, I will get back into the stock. A break through $1.37 and I will continue to hold. On the downside, $1.00 is a strong support level that must continue to hold or the downside risk is enormous.

Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. (FCX) - Keeping an eye on FCX, Joe Terranova ( Fast Money ) said weeks ago that a pullback to $42 would be a buy. If FCX retreats to around this area I will buy in as FCX breaks the high of the day that particular day.

Stocks to Watch - May 18, 2009

WuXi PharmaTech (Cayman) Inc. (WX)
BioCryst Pharmaceuticals Inc. (BCRX)

Citigroup Inc C Stock 5/18/09 May 18, 2009

The following is a little Citigroup Inc. ( C ) stock technical analysis for May 18, 2009

Citigroup Inc (C:NYSE) Support & Resistance Levels - 5/18/09

Resistance Levels: $3.70, $4 , $4.41, $4.48

Support Levels: $3.50, $3.36, $3.00


Discuss Stocks - http://stockstobuy.org

Citigroup stock continues to test the $3.50 support level and find resistance at the 10 day moving average currently at $3.62. For a trade, I will either go long when Citi retests the 50 day moving average around $3 or gets back over $4.00. I believe a huge break out will start when Citigroup closes over the $4.48 high from April. I believe a run back to $6 would be in the cards

FAS FAZ Stock Analysis May 18, 2009 5/18/09

The Direxion Financial Bull 3X Shares (NYSE: FAS) and the Direxion Financial Bear 3X Shares (NYSE: FAZ) ETF's have been very active over the past six months. The following is technical analysis on Financial Bull ( FAS ) for 5/18/09. Knowing the support and resistance levels for FAS will help you trade FAZ.





FAS Support and Resistance Levels - May 18, 2009

Resistance Levels: $ 9.30, $9.50, $10.00, $10.60, $12.53

Support Levels: $8.28, $8.09, $7.30


Discuss Stocks - http://stockstobuy.org

FAS is trading between both the 10 and 50 day moving averages as it still remains in an uptrend. I am watching Thursday's low of $8.28 and the April 30th low of $8.09. If these do not hold, I think a retest of the 50 day moving average is in store. You can also trade FAZ based on this as well. On the upside, a close back above the 10 day moving average ( $10.08 ) would be bullish! I originally wanted FAS to gap down in pre market big time on Thursday and then rally after the open....this would have been a sign of capitulation selling I wanted to see to get long FAS. This did not play out so I will be looking for this in the future to get long or I will jump in on a close back above the 10 day moving average. For More Technical Analysis - Go Here
