S&P500 outlook for the coming week (03Jun24) - using 20+ technical indicators

Market Outlook of S&P500 - 03Jun24 Observations: The MACD indicator has completed a top crossover and we should expect the down trend to continue. Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) has crossed the zero line in the middle which implies an uptrend. There is more buying volume than selling. For the index to drop, the selling volume needs to be more than the buying volume. Moving Averages (MA). Both the MA50 line and the MA200 line are on an uptrend. The last candle is above both the MA 50 line and the MA 200 line. Thus, it could be read as bullish for the long term and the mid-term. With the current trend, the candle should cut the MA 50 line soon. Exponential Moving Averages (EMA). The 3 EMA lines are on an uptrend. The lines are converging and should do so in the coming days. I have replaced Sto

Despite market sentiment being tepid, and even lots of experts said 'as long as you see market is moving, people are spending and labour force is healthy, the momentum keeps going..' Wait a minute: has spending stalled recently, wages were down, jobless claims shot up, unemployment high and PCE fell? Still, we think the market is buoyant before the Fed cuts interest rate? Hm... how stubborn as an investor we can be, and are we not all being tricked by the Fed, when good is bad and bad is good? And deficit keeps growing while wars are raging on  to the verge of tipping over? - strange world we are living in...war is good for the economy, isn't it?

Investment Reflection: AI Vertical Put Option Strategy

Overview of the Strategy On May 15, 2024, I executed a vertical put spread strategy involving AI $C3.ai, Inc.(AI)$  stock. This strategy entailed selling a put option at a strike price of USD 22 and simultaneously buying a put option at a strike price of USD 21, both with a maturity date of June 21, 2024. The initial trade resulted in a net credit of USD 25. This vertical put spread was chosen with the expectation that AI stock would remain above the higher strike price of USD 22, allowing the options to expire worthless and enabling me to retain the premium collected. Execution and Market Conditions The trade was well-timed as AI stock surged following its earnings announcement. On May 30, 2024, AI's stock price rose to USD 28.57, signifi

Stock Market Rally Puts S&P 500 on Track for Best May Performance Since 2009 This may not have been the year to "sell in May." The S&P 500 index SPX was up 4.6% for the month to date through Tuesday, on track for its best May performance since a 5.3% rise in 2009 when the stock market rallied off the worst levels of the financial crisis set on March 9 of that year. The S&P 500 averages a decline of 0.1% usually in May, according to Dow Jones Market Data, which noted that May is typically the second worst-performing month of the year. That historical performance helps explain the popular Wall Street adage, "Sell in May and go away." The period from May to November is historically the weakest for the market, though analysts and investors have argued that it oversimplifies the phe
