A Needed Rest For the Bulls - January Nearly in the Books

Posted Jan 28 2012, 07:09 AM by Bagger Vance with no comments

Markets were largely unchanged during this first big week of earnings. Is this the rest the markets needed? Maybe a 'rolling' correction where the indices don't move too much as the sectors...

Markets Stepping Up

Posted Jan 21 2012, 12:18 PM by Bagger Vance with no comments

Lots of convergences about to play out this coming week with a plethora of earnings, a Fed meeting and important economic data including a first look at 4th quarter GDP. Markets could be considered overbought...

It's Earnings Time!

Posted Jan 14 2012, 06:40 AM by Bagger Vance with no comments

Just a couple of weeks left before the Christmas holiday and the pressure is on. I’m not talking about the stores and shoppers, which will no doubt be crowded up until the last minute. No, I’m...

Markets on Hold Before the Big Jobs Report

Posted Dec 01 2011, 07:50 PM by Bagger Vance with no comments

We've seen the market get completely turned on its head last week and right back on its feet this week on a news-driven orgy. This week it was all positive, of course with last week's oversold...

Just the Way it Is

Posted Nov 27 2011, 08:04 AM by Bagger Vance with no comments
