Dow Jones Analysis 2/5/09 - Stock Market Analysis
The following is Technical Analysis for the Dow Jones ( DJIA ) for 2/5/09Dow Jones Support & Resistance Levels - February 5, 2009
Resistance Levels: 8000, 8125, 8400, 8500, 8765
Support Levels: 7867, 7774, 7500
http://stockcharts.com/ - Chart
The Dow Jones tested its 10 day moving average today and failed to close above this area. The Dow also failed to close above 8000. These two things are very bearish and we could go down to retest Monday's low of 7867.
If 7867 is broken, the next support is the Hogan Bottom at 7773.71 and the Timothy Geithner Bottom of 7449.38.
As soon as we get back over 8500, I will turn back into a bull...but we have a long way to go!

Nasdaq Analysis 2/05/09 - February 5, 2009
The following is Technical Analysis for the Nasdaq ( NAS ) for 2/5/09Nasdaq Support & Resistance Levels - February 5, 2009
Resistance Levels: 1525, 1600, 1665
Support Levels: 1500, 1476, 1434, 1400
http://stockcharts.com/ - Chart
The Nasdaq continues to hold up strong in a tough stock market, 1500 seems to be solid but Thursday we could have problems due to the poor guidance out from Cisco tonight. Futures are tanking!
Technically, 1476 is the area to watch since we bounced off this low on Monday. A break below 1476 could set up for a retest of the Jan low of 1434.
As soon as the Nasdaq can stay over both 10 and 50 day moving averages, it can really start to recover. Go Here

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 7956 on 2/4/09, as the stock market dropped on more banking fears. The Dow Jones Futures started the day down, but when stocks opened today, they opened higher. The Nasdaq was up 27 at one point but then Barack Obama came out and put a cap on executive pay for companies taking Tarp money. Bank of America ( BAC ) then dropped under $5 hitting a fresh 52 week low.
The main problems continue to exist in the stock market, earnings estimates keep dropping, and the second TARP program does not seem to address to main banking problem; Toxic Assets.
Tonight we get earnings out of Cisco Systems ( CSCO ). This could be a huge market mover for tomorrow as far as the Nasdaq goes.

Art Cashin CNBC Comments 2/4/09
Art Cashin, a floor trader on the NYSE for UBS, came on CNBC this afternoon and made some comments on falling stock market.
What do you see Art?
Late day rumors....Bank of America ( BAC ) falling below $5 isn't good. If you recall, when Citigroup ( C ) fell below $5, some Mutual Funds couldn't hold it, this could be the case with BAC, we'll have to see.
The stock market could get worse, this reversal today has given the bears the initiative for the next few days unless the bulls can rally the market in the last hour today.

Stock Market Report February 4, 2009 2/4/09
Today 2/4/09, the stock market futures are bouncing due to the ADP employment report released at 8:15am. The ADP report showed a loss of 522,000 jobs in the private sector. This news is actually better then expected and you might see stocks rally today. The big number comes on Friday, Feb 6th, as the Government will release the real employment report. This employment report will include the unemployment rate and how many jobs the US lost in January. I will also be looking to see if they revise down the December report since Wall Street did not seem to believe the data.
I will be watching key technical levels today on both the Nasdaq and Dow Jones. I feel the stock market cannot have a sustainable rally until our Government provides some clarity on the banking situation. We need to get these toxic assets off their books somehow or these banking stocks will continue to slide. This will drag the rest of the market down with it. We also need some clarity on the stimulus package.
Oil Markets February 4, 2009
Oil is rising back above $41 today as we await oil supply data coming out later this morning. Oil is finally starting to go up on bad news, the best indicator if you are trying to find a market bottom. If Oil gets back above $43 I think you could test $48-$50 resistance area. Opec is talking about cutting more supplies which is good for the oil market.
Stocks to Watch - 2/4/09
DryShips ( DRYS ) - Drys seems to be back at it again but will now have resistance at around $7.28. I only like this stock over $10, but that's just me. A guest was on CNBC this morning talking about the Baltic Dry Index and says it is improving. This would be good for the world economy. Today, the BDI was up huge and has been up for 13 straight days. This is huge for the bulk shipping stocks.
Disney ( DIS ) reported worse then expected earnings...the stock is down 5%
News Just out: Commercial real estate prices are falling fast! Commercial real estate loans are defaulting at a higher rate.

Baltic Dry Index Shipping Rates - 2/4/09 BDI
The following is a report on Dry Bulk Shipping Rates for 2/04/09. This data is critical for how the DryBulk Shipping Stocks such as DryShips ( DRYS ), Excel Maritime Carriers ( EXM ), Diana Shipping ( DSX ), Genco Shipping ( GNX ), TBS International ( TBSI ), Navios Maritime ( NM ), and OceanFreight ( OCNF ) will trade during the day. As you probably know, the Dry Bulk Shipping index can tell you a lot about the state of the World Economy. When Bulk Shipping Rates are at all time highs, the World Economy is outstanding. When Bulk Shipping Rates are as low as they have been lately, it signifies that the world economy has come to a screeching halt.
