Stock Market Futures

The Dow Jones is back testing the 10 day moving average as we go into Sept which is the worse month for stocks. As long as the Dow can continue to close over the 10 day moving average I am bullish. If it does close below the 10 day, I will get cautious and wait for a further pullback possibly toward the 9000-9100 level. A close above 9600 any time going forward would be very bullish and you will want to be covering any shorts. For More Technical Analysis - Go Here

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 9496 on 8/31/09, as the stock market fell after the China market tanked overnight. The Dow Jones Futures were down around 60 during pre market trading after the Shanghai index fell 6.74%. Investors on Wall Street are also getting cautious due to the fact that we are headed into September which is historically the worse month of the trading year. The Dow Jones is now back to the 10 day moving average ( 9475 ) so the next few trading sessions will be critical for the stock market. Keep an eye on the ISM report due out tomorrow at 10am EST.

Stocks to Buy 9/1/09 September 1, 2009

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 September 1 , 2009. Also, check out the Biggest Stock Gainers of the Day. You can also find previous stocks to buy reports - Right Here

Discuss Stocks - www.stockstobuy.org

Stocks to Watch - 9/1/09 - Stock Market Ideas

Helicos BioSciences Corporation (HLCS) - HLCS stock exploded through the $1.80 resistance level from Jan 2009. The next major resistance level to watch is $4.00. HLCS continues to move higher on the following news - Ontario Institute for Cancer Research Takes Delivery of a Helicos Genetic Analysis System.

Sinovac Biotech Ltd. (SVA) - SVA had another great day Monday on the following news - Sinovac says Chinese experts clear swine flu vaccine. SVA has resistance at $9.50 and then the sky is the limit...just depends on the volume.

Sequenom Inc. (SQNM) - SQNM stock popped Monday on no news. Options activity was bullish in August and continues to be so. Watch for a break above $6.20 resistance and then it should be blast off.

Hemispherx Biopharma, Inc. (HEB) - HEB continues the upward surge from Friday. Keep an eye on $2.20 which is the 50 day moving average. A close over $2.20 would be very bullish and signal a trend reversal. HEB has not closed over the 50 day moving average in roughly a month. Check out my HEB Technical Analysis

Swine Flu Stocks to Watch - Given the SVA news....keep an eye on the following swine flu stocks over the next few months.

BioCryst Pharmaceuticals Inc. (BCRX)
Novavax, Inc. (NVAX)
Hemispherx Biopharma, Inc. (HEB)
Vical Inc. (VICL)
Inovio Biomedical Corporation (INO)
CEL-SCI Corp. (CVM)
Generex Biotechnology Corp. (GNBT)
BioNeutral Group, Inc. (BONU.OB)

American Intl Group, Inc. (AIG) - AIG gapped down huge Monday morning after the stock market futures were down big. This is one risk holding a speculative stock when it has run up so much. I am watching Monday's high of $47.69. I will buy AIG for a trade when the stock breaks up through that level. Support is at $42.80 and $40.

Citigroup Inc (C:NYSE) - Citigroup had a nice pullback Monday morning which I bought into for a trade. I then sold the bounce up to $5.08. I will continue to buy any major pullback of 4% or more for a trade. I will go long and hold when Citigroup stock can break above $5.11 which was the high Monday afternoon.

CIT Group, Inc. (CIT) - Gapped down below $1.50 at the open Monday but then roared back into the $1.70's. This should tell you something! - Resistance - $1.86, $2

Ambac Financial Group, Inc. (ABK) - ABK is another stock that gapped down big on Monday morning. The stock then ripped into the high $1.80's. Support = $1.50, Resistance = $1.88, $2, $2.09

Direxion Daily Financial Bear 3X Shares (FAZ)
Daily Finan. Bull 3X Shs(ETF)(FAS) - FAS still hasn't broken down through a key support level of $74.29. When FAS does break below $74.29, I will be buying FAZ for a trade. Until then, you have to be buying FAS dips if you are trying to trade these two.

Bank of America Corp ( BAC ) - Bank of America Corporation bounced off the 10 day moving average this morning but is now trading back below $17.93. I like pullbacks as long as BAC continues to close over the 10 day moving average. If this changes, I will be a seller. Looks like short term resistance is located at $18.20-$18.25.

Cell Therapeutics, Inc ( CTIC ) - CTIC showed some signs of life Monday ahead of an FDA Fast Track decision on 9/4/09

Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (SPPI) - FDA Decision for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma on September 7, 2009

Guest on CNBC says he loves these three stocks the most ( to double possibly ) over the next two years: La-Z-Boy Inc. (LZB) - Nanometrics Inc. (NANO) - Eastman Kodak Co. (EK)
