Dow Jones Analysis 1/22/09 - Stock Market Analysis

The following is Technical Analysis for the Dow Jones ( DJIA ) for 1/22/09

Dow Jones Support & Resistance Levels - January 22, 2009

Resistance Levels: 8350, 8500
Support Levels: 8000, 7773.71, 7500, 7449.38
http://stockcharts.com/ - Chart

The Dow Jones reversed today and will be testing the 8350 Resistance level tomorrow. There is very strong resistance at 8500 and this is the level I believe the Dow Jones will have problems. If the Dow can close above 8500 i'd get bullish again but until this happens I will not be buying any Dow Components. With the close over 8000 today, support now rests at this level and this has turned out to be a solid buying level. For More Technical Analysis - Go Here

Nasdaq Analysis 1/22/09 January 22, 2009

The following is Technical Analysis for the Nasdaq ( NAS ) for 1/22/09

Nasdaq Support & Resistance Levels - January 22, 2009

Resistance Levels: 1539, 1600, 1665

Support Levels: 1500,1456, 1444, 1400

http://stockcharts.com - Chart

The Nasdaq rebounded today after putting in what appears to be a low of 1440.86 on Tuesday. A break above Friday's high of 1538.82 would be very bullish and would take the Nasdaq above both key moving averages once again. With Apple reporting blowout earnings tonight we could very well test this 1539 number tomorrow. As you know, I am bullish on the Nasdaq over 1500 and today we closed at 1507. Support is now back at 1500. If we get back to 1600 in the next few weeks, there will be sellers lined up around this area and will offer strong resistance. For More Technical Analysis - Go Here

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 8228 on 1/21/09, as the stock market was up this morning due to IBM's earnings and a bounce in the Banking Stocks like Bank of America ( BAC ) and Citigroup ( C ) after Citi finally slashed their dividend to a penny per share. To top all of this off, Bank of America reported in the final hour of trading that CEO Ken Lewis purchased shares as did 5 other inside directors. The Banking Stocks took off even further as did the overall stock market. The Dow Jones, Nasdaq, and S&P 500 all spiked higher on this news as did Oil prices. The USO, a stock that I own, is getting ready to close over the 10 day moving average at $31.10. This is a positive signal for a short term reversal. Keep an eye on Apple ( AAPL ) earnings tonight as we could have another big up day tomorrow if those earnings are better then expected. I will have full technical analysis of the stock market tonight - Right Here

Dow Jones Open 1/21/09 - Stock Market Opening Prices

Today, 1/21/09, the Dow Jones and Stock Market are opening higher due to a combination of factors. First, I think we are having a nice oversold bounce around key support and resistance level such as
8000 on the Dow Jones and between 815-820 on the S&P 500. Second, we had a nice earnings report out of IBM ( IBM ) last night which is positive for the Nasdaq and the technology stocks. IBM also guided higher on 2009 earnings. Lastly, Citigroup ( C ) has FINALLY cut their dividend to a penny. This might turn out to be the bottom for Citi as usually when companies' slash their dividend, it is the final blow. Only time will tell. Other things to note this for the Open, Oil has started the March contract and is back trading above $40. Check out my Technical Analysis stock charts of the Dow Jones and Nasdaq. It is important to know your support and resistance levels so that you can make better stock trades! Also, for you day traders out there, keep an eye on upcoming earnings dates!
