The view from Alert HQ --

After struggling to a new high on Monday, stocks experienced mini-meltdowns on Tuesday and Friday. Especially notable was the "sell the news" flavor of Friday's action where a stellar earnings report from Intel the day before failed to generate a rally and, with stocks falling across the board, semiconductors were among the worst performers.

It's no surprise then that the Alert HQ signals should take on a bearish tone. We saw Tuesday's signals reflecting weakness, Thursday's signals a slight return to bullishness and today signals an outright capitulation.

On nearly all of our lists, we see SELL signals greatly outnumbering BUY signals. Fewer stocks are joining the Trend Leaders list while larger numbers are falling off the list. Our early indicator, the Swing Trading Signals list is showing a big majority of SELL signals. When this occurs, it often happens that the overall market comes in for a period of weakness.

So it looks likely that stocks will continue downward and begin to test support levels. And then again, it's earnings season, so anything can happen. So best to keep an eye on our signals and look for a quick turnaround on the Swing Signals list to guide you.

Brazil - in a bubble or on a roll?

A couple of years ago, no one recognized the real estate bubble even though it was under everyone's nose. Now, analysts and bloggers are seeing bubbles everywhere they look. One of them, they say is in Brazil whose Bovespa stock market index has doubled in the last 12 months. Does the bubble accusation hold water? I don't think so and here are 7 reasons why Brazil is by no means a bubble economy: Exports have held up over the past year thanks to demand from China for Brazil's soya exports and iron ore. This was helped by the the Brazilian government's drive to improve trade links with Asia and Africa. Export diversification, spurred by a more active trade policy and increased focus on "south-south" trade under current president Lula, helped mitigate the decline in demand from OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) countries A "sensible" economic framework has been in place since the 1990's. This has included inflation

It is based on a post that provides a summary of the ten keys that individual investors should use to identify profitable stock trades. ( Click here to read the original post ) There are two basic steps to investing. First, you need to find stocks that seem to have some potential. Then you have to determine whether these stocks are actually good investments. There are many stocks that at first glance look interesting, but further research reveals that there are too many negatives to warrant taking a position. This first post in the series starts at the beginning: getting good investment ideas. Key #1: If something special is happening to a stock, it will be reflected in some kind of unusual activity in the markets. As individual investors, we will never be the first to know; however, unusual activity can be an early sign that allows us to follow the Wall Street professional
