HI Financial Services Mid-Week Commentary 09-22-2015

Trading is a process that most people don’t have the stomach or patience to master – khurley@hurleyinvestments.com

 

Market Crashes and The Recovery:

Market Crashes occur every 4.5 years on average – 20% correction

Markets fall down faster than they rise

What is the advantage of a market crash on your portfolio?

               With protection you get to lower your cost basis/add more shares of stock

Dollar cost average WITHOUT having to find more capital

Usually, you are not making money and/or the account is down slightly during this period

 

Recovery – Who makes money in a bullish market?Everyone

What if you have protection on in a bullish market?Still make money but not a much as other

 

 

Trading as a process = That you don’t win Every Day!

BUT I’ve learned as you win on the down days overall you will make more money than winning with risk on the up days!!!

Companies like F and NVDA that are were and are technically bullish goes thru a down day like today? YES

 

Let’s talk about why I am down 0.5% today and what the cause is?

Options expired last Friday which means I had to roll my long puts out in time and I chose to not add short calls. 

I am choosing to take more risk because of the huge upside from the lows at where stocks are currently trading.

 

What’s happening this week and why?

Existing Homes sales 5.31 M vs est 5.50M

FHFA Housing Price Index .6 vs est .2

Fed disappointment

Is anyone surprised that we are in a slow growth recovery?

We are biggest and best (at times) economy in the world yet be are being led around by China, Europe, Japan,….?????

Why are we no longer able to stand alone as an Island to the world?=Because we are more globally driven economy, how about the dollar strength was built on a house of stimulus vs real growth, huge debt to repay, no 3% GDP which is the optional number, less jobs, Obamacare, weak useless debt driven, out for themselves candidates for public service

 

 

Where will our market end this week?

Down lower than today and it is a historical fact the worst week on a historical average in the stock market is this WEEK!!!

 

DJIA – Mixed signals with bearish price movement, break out to the downside today for our flag patter. More importantly the Median line on the RSI acted as resistance
