Dow Jones Analysis 3/30/09 Stock Market Analysis

The following is Technical Analysis for the Dow Jones ( DJIA ) for 3/30/09

Dow Jones Support & Resistance Levels - March 30, 2009

Resistance Levels: 8000, 8250

http://stockcharts.com/ - Chart

Stock Market Futures

The Dow Jones failed at 8000 for the second straight day. This is a major resistance level. We ended at 7776 so we are now 180 above the 50 day moving average which is support. These are you two points to trade off of. A break above 8000 will be bullish for stocks, a break below the 50 day will be bearish for stocks. Keep an eye on Citigroup as Citi closed below both 10 & 50 day moving averages today. This could be the first sign of things to come as Citi started this massive rally!

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 7776 on 3/27/09, as the stock market fell on profit taking and banking concerns. Profit taking hit stocks in early trading and then JP Morgan CEO and Bank of America CEO said that things are not looking as good as prior quarters. The Dow Jones Futures opened very weak and then stock market continued weaker throughout the day. Several attempts to rally failed and Citigroup ( C ) stock closed below both the 10 & 50 day moving averages. If you remember, Citi CEO Vikram Pandit started this whole rally with his profitability comments in early March. The last financial meltdown started with Citigroup breaking down. This is something to watch next week!

Next week will be a critical week. A lot of people are saying the strong buying we saw this week was due to window dressing. Window dressing is Mutual Funds buying the winners so that they show up in their quarterly statements when they are mailed at the end of the quarter. If this theory is correct, we will see a sell-off early next week. On Friday, April 3rd, we get the March jobs report. This data will be a stock market mover.

One of the best stocks today was Dryships ( DRYS ). Every major dip was bought today and the volume was heavy.

S&P 500 Analysis 3/30/09 March 30, 2009

The following is Technical Analysis for the S&P 500 ( IXIC ) for 3/30/09

S&P 500 Support & Resistance Levels - March 30, 2009

Resistance Levels: 833, 850

Support Levels: 810, 800, 798, 791

http://stockcharts.com/ - Chart

Stock Market Futures

The S&P 500 is showing a top tag from yesterday of 832.98. This area will be a minor resistance level going forward. The downtrend line of the previous highs still extend well above 850 and this is where I feel we will top out at in the short term. The 10 day moving average is crossing the 50 day moving average, this is a bullish signal. Any close below both the 10 and 50 day moving averages from here on out would be bearish. Also, a close below 800 would be bearish as well. If this rally is for real, 800 will hold on a closing basis now that we've spent so much time about it. For More Technical Analysis - Go Here

Art Cashin CNBC 3/27/09 March 27, 2009

Art Cashin was on CNBC this morning, March 27, 2009 - and gave some comments about what he is seeing in the stock market right now.

Are there any Bears left Art? Can this rally last?

Window Dressing: You are seeing some window dressing - Fund managers are seeing this sharp rally and its making headlines, - they are attempting to buy the winners so they show up in their portfolios ( when the statements go out ). Today may be the last important day...we will see what happens at the end of the day.

Raise Cash? I thought there would be a powerful rally weeks ago, there might be a little bit of steam left in this rally. 70% of stocks are above 50 day moving average, when you see 80% the rally starts to die. We might have a change in direction around Easter...just not sure which way yet.

Shorts have had fear placed back on their plate...I think they are nervous now but if we get another dip, they might try and push it down once again.
