AIG stock spiked late in the day and closed over the 10 day moving average on a report that AIG will not need a new bailout. I am watching the resistance levels of $1.78 & $2.00. A close over $2.00 and I will be getting long AIG stock as I believe a break out will occur. If the above plays out, I am looking at $2.12 and $2.84 as potential upside targets. You atleast have an exit plan by putting a stop at $1.99.

Watching for a up big volume day of 200 million +

Dow Jones Support & Resistance Levels - May 5, 2009

Resistance Levels: 8500, 8700

Support Levels: 8300, 8190, 8000

Stock Market Futures

The Dow Jones closed above the late January high of 8405.87 today...a very bullish signal. The real test will come at 8500 where there is significant resistance. Support is now located at 8200 and 8000. A close below 8000 at this point would be very bearish. If the Dow Jones can close above 8500, I think a retest of 9000 could be in the cards. At that point, I'd be starting some short positions. For More Technical Analysis - Go Here

Dow Jones Industrial Average ( DJIA ) Close - 8426.74 Up 214.33

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 8427 on 5/4/09, as the stock market spiked higher on better then expected Pending Homes Sales and a better then expected China manufacturing number. Financial Bull ( FAS ) broke through $9.00 and was trading at $9.40 at 3:30pm Est. The financials were very strong led by Wells Fargo ( WFC ) and Bank of America ( BAC ).

The Dow Jones is testing 8500 which will be a key resistance level to watch going forward. The S&p 500 broke 900 and could be setting up to test the 940 level sometime in May. I do believe the S&P will trend around 900 both up and down in the next few weeks. There were a lot of bulls calling for 900 and will be starting to sell into their targets.

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

Monday, 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 May 5, 2009. Also, check out the Biggest Stock Gainers of the Day. You can also find previous stocks to buy reports - Right Here

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

Financials: The bank stocks surged higher Monday after pending home sales were up 3.2% in March. Here is a list of financials I am watching:

Financial Bull 3x ( FAS ) - FAS has resistance at $8.91 and support around $8.00. A close above $9.00 would be huge for this stock but many people are on the sidelines until the stress test results are released May 7th. If FAS starts to look weak, you can always jump into Financial Bear 3x ( FAZ ).

Citigroup ( C ) - Citi has been turning around lately and I will make a quick trade on a break up through $3.28. When Citigroup stock closes over $3.43, I think there could be a nice break out to the upside. Every time Citigroup has retraced back to $2.60-$2.70 it has been quickly bought up. Regarding the stress test, Wall Street doesn't seem to mind that Citi will need to raise another 10 billion.

Bank of America ( BAC ) - Watching $9.89, a close above $9.89 will bring further upside to BAC stock. I don't see any resistance until $11.23. Wall Street seems to be ok with B of A needing more capital.

Wells Fargo ( WFC ) - Jim Cramer has a price target of $26 which was made the day WFC stock soared as they pre announced earnings. Only $3 away right now.

China Precision Steel, Inc. (CPSL) - CPSL stock was gaining on Monday due to the better then expected China Manufacturing data. CPSL is now approaching prices not seen since the first week of October 2008. I am watching $2.80, $2.98, and $3.43 resistance levels. I feel if one is broken, the next one will be tested. Another China stock that was surging today was China Direct, Inc. (CDII) - 15 times normal volume.

Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (CTIC) - CTIC stock continues to trend higher after a small correction in pre market trading this morning. I am still watching for a close above $0.49 for the fireworks to begin in my opinion.
