The following is excerpted from our "Market
Trends Diary" in the beginning of August 2007, a time of unusual volatility
in the market. The idea is to give potential subscribers a sense of our
market coverage. Of late, we've gotten in the habit of updating on a
daily basis, though we reserve the right to post on a less frequent basis.
"Distillations" of some of the subjects we've covered are included in
the table above. Non-subscribers can view the "seasonal
charts" page...the other links are password-protected.
Aug 11 (Sat): Just to drill home the
point that Friday's big movers related not to industries, but to their recent
gains and losses, take a look at the table below. We picked out the 99
stocks with the worst "momentum" (out of about 2400). Look at Friday's %
gains! 39 of these stocks had gains greater than 12%. Only four had
losses of greater than 5%. Note also that the big gains aren't correlated
with particular industries.
