Alert HQ signals for Thursday, Jan 7, 2010



This post is announcing that Thursday's Swing Signals, Trend Leaders, Trend Busters and Gap Signals are now available at Alert HQ. All are based on daily data.

Today we have the following:
  • 25 Swing Signals -- 13 BUY signals and 12 SELL Signals.
  • 631 Trend Leaders, all in strong up-trends according to Aroon, MACD and DMI. We have 191 stocks that are new additions to the list and 145 that fell off the previous list.
  • 43 Trend Busters of which 36 are BUY signals and 7 are SELL signals.
  • 187 Gap Signals -- stocks with upside or downside gaps or gaps that have been closed. 65 are bearish gaps and 122 are bullish gaps.
The view from Alert HQ --

Another day of markets muddling through. The NASDAQ came up with another minor loss while the Dow and the S&P 500 managed minor gains. With this kind of inconclusive behavior I'm  surprised to see such a bullish tone to our Alert HQ signals today.

Though our Swing Trading Signals are again noncommittal, nearly evenly split between BUY signals and SELL signals, the other signals are still leaning bullish. The Trend Leaders list has continued growing, including a total of 631 stocks and ETFs today, the highest it's been in weeks. The Trend Busters list continues to feature many more BUY signals than SELL signals and the Gap Analysis list shows more bullish gaps than bearish gaps,

Though major market averages seem to be struggling a bit, the broad market continues to produce stocks with BUY signals. As long as that continues, I can't see markets falling in a worrisome way. So take a look at our BUY signals, you're bound to find a few that suit your investment objectives.

Using our signals --

If you're a momentum trader, the Trend Leaders list is a good place to go shopping. If you practice technical analysis, check out the Trend Busters. And if you are a short-term trader or even a day trader, our Swing Signals or Gap Signals may provide some good trading ideas.

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...
