Options Trading Strategies Comments

The market seems to shrug off anything to do with the Sequester and if you listen to the talking heads on the major networks, the “quality” of the earning that are driving us is great.

The disconnect between the economy and the stock market also continues.  While earnings do in fact continue to grow, revenues have been a bit on the light side.  Productivity has dropped as wages rise.

At some point we will have to deal with an unemployment rate that falls on the U6 data…this includes the participation factor of those that have given up looking for work and are no longer seeking employment.  The U6 rate is 50% higher than the “headline” number. Too many are able to obtain welfare without looking very hard.

All this said, the market continues to have only 1 or 2 day declines before starting back up. There are so many looking for the coming correction that anything but a debacle is just an excuse to be a buyer

For those of you who do not buy puts to protect your portfolio, there are many ETF’s that are the inverse of the DOW. The symbols are DOG, DXD, SDS,TZA and RWM, which go up when the DOW, S&P 500 and Russell 2000 go down and down when they go up. The DZZ goes up double when gold goes down.

 

$100,000 Trading Portfolio

Options Trading Strategies

Recommendations And Overall Comments

We gained $ 2,745

in closed out positions last week

Our profits for the year

increased to a hypothetical $ 26,274

 

We have five options positions:

The Stock table includes the following eighteen positions:

The options call for a $ 2,500 investment unless otherwise stated; each stock position requires $5,000 unless specifically stated.

 

We are basing money management on a hypothetical $ 100,000.00 and are using $ 5,790.00

in five options positions, $ 71,412.00 in the 18 stock positions, a total of $ 77,202.00 with 22,798.00 in cash.

 

These figures are approximate. We do not count commission costs and there may be errors.

 

Executions that have occurred at or near the open or close of trading sometimes vary from our actual numbers.  For example, when something opens down and it is through our price, we take the next trade whether it is an uptick or continues lower.  This sometimes results in a 50% trade that is slightly above or below the exact number.

 

 

Previous Week’s Recommendations and

Rules for the

$100,000 Portfolio Trading Account

 

• All options count for about $ 2,500.00 for model portfolio calculations unless otherwise stated.

Market Strategies Trading Fundamentals

 

Stocks continued to set records. The Dow closed at 14,397, a gain of 15.2% since November 15^th. The outside day up November 16^th proved to be the first of many such patterns, which continued November 28^th, December 5^th, December 31^st and January 15^th. Every second day down has been a buy and might continue in such a pattern through the next week. March historically comes in like a lion, goes out weak.

 

All Ten Dow Industrial groups were strong but not necessarily over-done. Basic Materials gained 3.26% as the leader. Financials followed gaining 3.07%. The FAS ( FAS: 162.70 ) Financial ETF rose every day last week up 13.05 points or 8.8%. Dow Industrials rose 2.62% and Consumer Services were not far behind at plus 2.61%. Consumer Services includes Airlines, Hotels, Gambling, Restaurants and Bars, Apparel Retailers, Publishing and Hotels. Technology added 2.24%; Health Care 2%; Telecommunications 1.91%; Consumer Goods 1.59%; Oil and Gas 1.41%; and lastly Utilities up 1.32%.

 

Market Strategies Economic Data

Feb Nonfarm Payrolls surged last month adding 236,000 new jobs. The threat of a sequester had little effect in retarding the advance of every private sector. The only group declining was Government Jobs: The Employment Rate fell 2 pts to 7.7% from 7.9% in January. The Fed policy has worked and is not likely to change until the Employment Rate falls to 6.5% or Inflation rises above 2.5%.

Market Strategies Cycles

None of the ETF’s we follow made double digit gains  in February as they did in January.

Market Vectors Indonesia (IDX) was closest, gaining 9.1%. Much of IDX’s success can be traced to the fact that Indonesia has grown in excess of 6% in each of the last three years and is expected to continue to or exceed this pace for the next few years. Indonesia’s growth is attractive considering many developed market economies have been shrinking recently. iShares MSCI Philippines Investable (EPHE) is another emerging market story quite similar to Indonesia, often over-looked although. well above average growth (and expectations) has been silently luring savor investors to the Philippines.

March packs a rather busy docket. The end of the first quarter brings with it Triple Witching and an abundance of portfolio maneuvers from The Street. March Triple-Witching Weeks according to ( The Hirsch Stock Trader’s Almanac ) have been quite bullish in recent years. But the week after ( beginning the eighteenth )  is the exact opposite, DJIA down 16 of the last 25 years—and frequently down sharply for an average drop of 0.5%. Notable gains during the week after for DJIA of 4.9% in 2000, 3.1% in 2007, 6.8% in 2009, and 3.1% in 2011 are the rare exceptions to this historically poor performing timeframe.

Normally a decent performing market month, post-election year payments to the Piper take a toll on March as average gains are trimmed significantly . In post-election years March ranks: 5th worst for DJIA, S&P 500 and Russell 2000; NASDAQ is 4th worst and Russell 1000 is the best at 6th worst. In 10 post-election years since 1973, NASDAQ has advanced just four times, most recently in 2009 (+10.9%).

Saint Patrick’s Day is often a recurring bullish event. Gains the day ( this year Friday the 15^th )before Saint Patrick’s Day have proved to be greater than the day itself ( Sunday  the 17^th ) and the day after. Perhaps it’s the anticipation of the patron saint’s holiday that boosts the market and the distraction from the parade down Fifth Avenue that causes equity markets to languish. Or maybe it’s the fact that Saint Pat’s usually falls in Triple-Witching Week.

Whatever the case, since 1950, the S&P 500 posts an average gain of 0.22% on Saint Patrick’s Day (or the next trading day when it falls on a weekend), a gain of 0.11% the day after, but the day before averages a 0.24% advance. In 2013, Saint Patrick’s falls on Sunday which has only occurred eight times in the past 63 years. In these eight occurrences, the pattern of strength before and weakness after is even more pronounced as the Monday and Tuesday following were negative on average.

Good Friday and Easter have landed in the month 12 times in the last 63 years like they do this year. On the day before Good Friday S&P 500 has gains averaging 0.2% in the previous twelve March Easters. Because the holidays are near month-end, the two trading days after Easter have been weak.

Rule 17 B Attestations:

*Princeton has approximately 2,581,578 shares of AIVN both free and restricted and represents them for I.R.. Princeton also has about 40,000 shares of TXGE. Princeton is paid $ 1,500 per month from RMS Medical Products. Princeton has bought  81,100 shares of RMS Medical Products. When there is no movement in penny stocks, even though there is none or very small losses, we will liquidate if money is needed for better opportunities. We now believe the three small penny stocks we represent for a total outlay of $ 9,725 is well worth the risk.
