The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 8721 on 6/1/09, as the stock market exploded higher on a General Motors ( GM ) bankruptcy and better then expected economic data such as construction spending. The Dow Jones Futures opened up higher in pre market and as the economic data trickled out during the morning hours, the stock market went even higher.

The S&P 500 closed over the 200 day moving average for the first time in over a year and the Dow Jones is now in the process of testing It's 200 day moving average. While some Wall Street traders still refer to this run-up as a bear market rally, you cannot ignore the technical signals the stock market is telling us. If GM would have went bankrupt last fall or the start of 2009, the Dow Jones would have been down 800 points in one day. The market is clearly looking past this event and clinging on to signs of a recovery.

The S&P 500 now has support at 930 and 900 while the Dow Jones has support at 8600 and 8500. Check out some of the events I will be watching for Tuesday.

Cell Therapeutics CTIC Stock Halted - News Pending

This afternoon, 6/1/09, Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (CTIC) stock has been halted for news pending. The company will be presenting at the ASCO conference today so i'm assuming this has something to do with the halt.

I will post the news when it hits - you can discuss CTIC at www.stockstobuy.org or view our recent discussion thread.

CTIC News - June 1, 2009

Pixantrone Significantly Increases Complete Remissions, Overall Response Rates, Frequency of Durable Remissions and Progression Free Survival in Patients with Relapsed and Refractory Aggressive Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma


Cell Therapeutics, Inc. ("CTI") (Nasdaq and MTA: CTIC) announced today that at the 2009 American Society for Clinical Oncology ("ASCO") Annual Meeting for the first time since the top-line data were released, complete pivotal phase III results of CTI's EXTEND (PIX 301) clinical trial of pixantrone (the "PIX 301 EXTEND trial") in relapsed or refractory aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma ("NHL") were presented by Principal Investigator, Ruth Pettengell, M.D. of St. George's Hospital, University of London, the lead investigator for the PIX 301 EXTEND trial who presented the study at ASCO.

"Anthracycline-related drugs can be effective salvage agents in aggressive NHL, but our use of them is limited by the significant increase in risk of cardiac failure associated with high cumulative doses of these drugs," said Dr. Pettengell. "These results represent a breakthrough in that pixantrone could extend our ability to use a highly active anthracycline-like drug in such patients and deserves to be examined in anthracycline naive patients as a potential alternative to currently available standard anthracycline drugs."

Stocks to Buy June 1, 2009 6/1/09

Friday, during regular trading hours, there were many stocks that continued to break out to the upside. Below is a list of stocks that are worth watching for June 1, 2009. Also, check out the Biggest Stock Gainers of the Day. You can also find previous stocks to buy reports - Right Here

Discuss Stocks - www.stockstobuy.org

Stocks to Watch - 6/1/09 - Stock Market Ideas

Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (CTIC) - CTIC stock broke out to the upside on Friday after consolidating over the past two weeks. CTIC will present data at the ASCO conference over the weekend so this could be a very active stock on Monday after the data is released. Support for CTIC is now $1.37 with resistance at $1.54 & $1.85

Hemispherx Biopharma, Inc. (HEB) - HEB bounced off the 10 day moving average Thursday at $1.50 and hit $1.70 on Friday. All eyes will be on the FDA decision for their drug Ampligen within the next 10 days. Keep HEB on your radar!

Ford Motor Company ( F ) - With a GM bankruptcy imminent, it seems as though you can trust Ford more then ever these days. Look for the stock to test $6 sometime in June. The new Taurus actually looks nice....I've never said that about a Ford before - ( I am an Acura and Maserati fan )

DryShips, Inc. (DRYS) - DRYS continues to break out to the upside, this time breaking through previous resistance of $7.77. The baltic dry index has been on fire for the last 20 trading sessions.

Advanced Life Sciences Holdings, Inc.( ADLS ) - Keep an eye on ADLS on Monday - Advanced Life Sciences Announces Posting of Briefing Documents for FDA Advisory Committee Meeting on Restanza(TM) (cethromycin) - Discuss ADLS

MGM Mirage (MGM) - Keep an eye on MGM next week, showed some nice strength Friday afternoon - watching for a break up through $7.80 which should get the stock moving higher. You can also watch Las Vegas Sands Corp. (LVS) as well!

Direxion Daily Financial Bear 3X Shares (FAZ)
Direxion Daily Finan. Bull 3X Shs(ETF)(FAS) - FAS stock was very boring lately. It continues to trade between $8.60 and $10. Use these two prices as your support and resistance levels.

Citigroup Inc (C:NYSE) - Citigroup is back in the $3.70's. Support is located at $3.60, a close below that would be your first signs of weakness. I would be a buyer of Citi on a close above $4.00.

Bank of America Corp. (NYSE:BAC) - BAC continues to be boring, a close below $10.50 would be your first sign of weakness, a close above $12 would be bullish.

Research In Motion Ltd. (RIMM) - RIMM was very weak on Friday. Appears to be just a minor pullback to support of around $77-$78. I would be selling on a break below $77 and waiting it out. You can always get back in when RIMM gets back about $77 again. Joe Terranova actually added RIMM yesterday in the $80's and appears to now be down on his position.
