I want 5lb angus steak yo....

Waah... ok, you want to slaughter the bulls huh?

In that case, I see plenty for chances to turn on your slaughter machines next week.

Hey guys,I just started reading and learning about the US stock market.
So far,I've read that Japan might legalise gambling in a few months time.
Is it a good time to invest in resorts such as MGM,Vegas sands?
And,will the bear go to full mauling-mode this week?
S&P 500 1800 this week?

Great Start.. If got time, learn on the CBOE VIX (Fear Index /Gauge) too..
Usually, If VIX > 25 pts, ppls will put 30% of their cash and BUY some stocks.
If VIX > 30 pts, ppls will put another 30% of their cash and BUY some stocks too.
If VIX > 35 pts, based on own judgment on the remaining 40% CASH reserves.

Casinos stocks like MGM, LVS, MPEL, WYNN(NYSE/Nasdaq) or 0027,1928, 1128, 0880, 2282 (HKSE)
were flying very high since year 2009 .. I got feeling the legalization will happen just b4
parliament end in June.. Prediction of bull/bear direction?? You may get right or wrong move too.
IMHO, better put yr money to work even harder for you (ROI %) in small-cap and
medium-cap stocks (Russell 2000) with great ROI in currency exchg rate too in investment(long-term).
Ordinary usual day, ppls continue with day-to-day job/career/business, save the cash in term FD and
collect dividend(if got any) plus view their porfolios in trust / trading acct whenever in their free time.

actually, i am just having BLIND faith for nasdaq... hehe

green...surprise!!

Maybe back to red after I wake up....

Bounce-lah... that's ok.

Bears are waiting between 1835 and 1840 area.

1835 working so far, rejecting twice. Anyone speculating tech stock; AAPL? on this quarter earnings

oh boy sharks are pushing it back to green for closing. Now I was wondering if this correction able to break 1800 or not.
However, May is still few weeks away....

thought May will come early

What will happen in May?

Per famous Trader's Almanac, ppls sell in month of May, as historical records
shown seasonal month of decline..
Sell in May and Go Away(click me)
Sell in May and Buy in October?? (click me)

May not applicable for investment(long term) plan, as investment is not a seasonal period/trend..

This time around, the catalyst to sell started when SP500 peaked near 1900, when the job numbers (released on Apr 4) were good. The smart money took off early prior to the April 15 deadline.

was yesterday a short covering? only good news is from citi for its surprised increase in profit (nothing special ma) while ignoring the macro environment of ukraine issue.

bull cant just take over again. strange eh?

bull or bear perhaps tonite can see a clearer picture.
not much news on the geo political economic fronts.
maybe next day the chinese data could moce the market a bit.

Bears just came in at exactly 1843..and killed some first batch of bulls that crossed the line.

BAC at 16.22

CBOE VIX values greater than 30 are generally associated with a large amount of volatility
as a result of investor fear or uncertainty, while values below 20 generally correspond
to less stressful, even complacent, times in the markets. Is CBOE VIX is still relevant?
More Info abt CBOE VIX ==>> Volatility Index (VIX) and Wikipedia VIX

nasdaq below 4000.
