Dow Jones Analysis 2/27/09 Stock Market Analysis

The following is Technical Analysis for the Dow Jones ( DJIA ) for 2/27/09

Dow Jones Support & Resistance Levels - February 27, 2009

Resistance Levels: 7385, 7449, 7500, 7552

Support Levels: 7105, 7036, 7000



The Dow Jones closed near the lows today and could not manage to break back up through the 10 day moving average. This is a bearish sign...every rally has been met by sellers. Keep an eye on the support level of 7105 and the S&P 500 support level of 741. If these levels are broken, the current leg down will continue. There is additional support at 7036 and 7000 but then there isn't much buying support until 6300-6500. When we close back above the 10 day moving average things could turn around fast.

Nasdaq Analysis 2/27/09 February 27, 2009

The following is Technical Analysis for the Nasdaq ( NAS ) for 2/27/09

Nasdaq Support & Resistance Levels - February 27, 2009

Resistance Levels: 1455, 1500, 1526

Support Levels: 1384-1387, 1315, 1295



The Nasdaq tested the 10 day moving average for the second straight day and was rejected. We are now in the process of retesting Monday's low of 1386.68 and if we break 1384, there isn't much buying support until around the 1315 area. Remember the huge move in November on the Timothy Geithner announcement? When this news broke, the Nasdaq reversed from the 1295 low all the way up to around 1390, exactly where we are right now. As soon as we close back over the 10 day moving average it could be safe to buy technology. Until then, watch 1384, 1315, and 1295. For More Technical Analysis - Go Here

Dow Jones Close 2/26/09 - Stock Market Closing Prices

Stock Market Closing Prices - 2/26/09

Dow Jones Industrial Average ( DJIA ) Close - 7182.08 Down 88.81
Nasdaq Stock Market Close - 1391.47 Down 33.96
S&P 500 Close - 752.82 Down 12.08
http://dowjonesclose.com

Libor Rates - 2/26/09 - Up 3 straight days! Bearish sign!

Commodities Closing Prices - 2/26/09

Gold Close - 945.10
Oil Close - 45.04
Natural Gas Close - 4.10

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 7182 on 2/26/09, as the stock market went on another roller coaster ride during the trading session. The day started with the Dow Jones Futures in positive territory due to a huge rise in the bank stocks early. The Dow Jones was up over 100 points at one point with the S&P 500 testing critical resistance of that 780 level. The Obama Tax Hike news started to sink in around noon as stocks retreated into negative territory. The Sallie Mae news was also viewed as Bearish. Once again, the Government is screwing with the stock market. Sallie Mae is now trashed! What is next? A Citigroup nationalization?

Anyway, details about the problem bank list were released in the afternoon as this started the steep decline we saw in the final hour. Most of the banking stocks that were up early rolled over hard. The Nasdaq was hit the hardest. The S&P 500 is now close to key support at 741, if that breaks, another leg down should follow.

Why were Gold Prices down today? I'd have to say it was a technical move down. Gold has had a huge run over the past month and given that bank stocks were very strong over the last few days, you are seeing some money rotating out of Gold. Don't worry, the money will come back into Gold soon.

Oil was up today on signs that the recent OPEC production cuts were taking effect. Oil closed over $45 per barrel but has come off the highs as the stock market plunged in the final hour. There is also rumors of additional cuts by OPEC in the coming months.

Today was an ugly day for stocks! But what do you expect? We are in a nasty bear market recession. Tomorrow could be another ugly day as well - I will post Futures tonight and also post full technical analysis of the Stock Market - Right Here
