Wednesday TrendLeaders and Swing Signals, April 22, 2009


I wanted to generate a new list of TrendLeaders today and while I was at it I also produced a new batch of Swing Trading Signals. They are all available now and can be found at the TrendLeaders page and the Swing Signals page, respectively.

The market has been pretty erratic so far this week but there are still 824 stocks and ETFs that qualify as TrendLeaders. As of the close of trading today they are all above their 50-day moving average and registering strong trends according to Aroon, MACD and DMI analysis.

I notice there are quite a few PowerShares ETFs on the list today as well as some ETFs I have never heard of: the First Trust Alphadex funds. Something to look into...

We also have a new batch of Swing Trading Signals. Just like yesterday, we have 38 signals in total. Today they are split down the middle: 19 are BUYS and 19 are SELLS.

Please check out our latest stock market data at the TrendLeaders page and the Swing Signals page. You will also be able to download the data in a CSV format file that can be opened in Excel. Of course, it's all still free.

Business Intelligence consolidation - who's next?

We have seen a consolidation wave begin in the Business Intelligence space. IBM just bought Cognos and Oracle recently bought Hyperion. SAP just announced they are buying Business Objects after barely having time to digest their recent acquisition of Pilot Software. There are three major database vendors at this time: IBM with their DB2 product, Oracle with their flagship Oracle database and Microsoft with their SQL Server database. IBM and Oracle now have premier, industrial-strength data analysis and reporting products in their product portfolios that complement their core database products. Microsoft has what, Excel? Actually, Microsoft, like IBM and Oracle, has a suite of proprietary tools that do happen to integrate very well with Excel and SQL Server. Still, IT departments are not deploying the Microsoft tools for heavy-duty corporate use. Microsoft is unique among the big three by their lack of a premier reporting product. It seems safe to assume that Microsoft will be the next...
