There are 3 open positions:

Long 4 GLD April 119 Calls

6 QQQ 108.50 Puts and

2 SIG  April 120 Puts

Are the Financials the Problem ???

 Week 14 was very productive in both accounts.  We had gains of about 5% in total value in both, and both accounts have open positions in SIG that not only have no cost, but due to the gap from $2.10 to $4.30 we executed out on the 100% up rule at  207%.  The gain for the week was $572 and YTD is now $3455.

Today’s question is really a major issue for this market. Financials is the second largest sector of our market and it couldn’t look worse.  The dovish Fed comments and the weakness in retail give some very important clues to direction.  This coming week we have the biggest bank earnings, and frankly, the news is ugly.  Internationally, even with our tepid performance, banks look terrible.  DB (Deutsche Bank) and HGSBF (Hong Kong Shanghi Bank) are either at new all-time lows or approaching them. The only good news is that we have such dramatically lowered expectations that the Q1 earning are already in the market and any good news (and I don’t expect any) would send bank stocks higher.  As I’ve said repeatedly in this space, you can’t have a sustained up market without the financials. The biggest hint of things to come may be the strength of the Jap Yen.  Not only is it not good news for Japanese manufacturing, but the “Yen carry trade” where you borrow Yen at depressed levels to buy stocks, can cause a major problem for the S & P500.  As the Yen strengthens they must be repaid and stocks liquidated to provide the monies needed.  Added to this are the dramatic losses in the retailing business both in Japan and here in the US.

On Friday GPS (Gap Stores) lived up to its name and gapped down and closed down 13.84%.  It was not alone, since most of our biggest retailers had a terrible week, with GPS -19%, M -8%, JWN -11% and ANF – 9%.  Coincidentally, Japans biggest retailer, Fast Retailing gapped and fell from 298 to 244.  This company has a  7% weighting in the Nikkei average.

The S&P500 and Nikkei have moved in tandem at the bottom and both rallied in concert, but this is no longer the case.  To use the example of our market as “the best house in a bad neighborhood” I think it is unlikely that the rest of the world is going to be dragged up to our performance.  The political climate, the continued demonization of our banks and Wall Street, and the data driven Fed all make me believe we are headed lower.  We are well positioned for that move, but hyper-aware of the risk, and will keep a vigilant eye on being wrong.

Lastly, the Gold continues to find support at the 1210-1220 range.  With the banking and currency issues in play, we will continue to maintain positions near support and watch the prior resistance near 1280-1290

The DJT failed to close above its 200-day m.a. which was the previous week’s sell signal. The DJT continued as the worst performing index, down 4 days out of 5 last week, to lead the indexes lower. The indexes all have plenty of overhead resistance just ahead of seasonal earnings reports. S&P 500 Quarterly earnings, expected to be $ 26.28/ S&P share, are now projected to drop 9.1% from the fourth quarter of 2015. That means any surprises will be to the upside as expectations are for the earnings recession to continue.

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.

Market Strategies $100,000 Trading Account

 

There were three closed option positions:

 

JPM  April 60 Calls were sold for a loss of $ 496

BA April 128 Calls made a gain of $ 480.

Half of the 8 lot SIG position was sold for a gain of $ 1160.

 

The net gain in options was $ 1148.

 

There were four closed out stock positions:

 

50 shares of the VRX lost $ 118

50 lot position in SIG made a gain of $ 216

100 SPXU’s lost $ 52

while the big gain was VA making $ 3,700

 

The result for the entire week was a net gain of $ 4, 894.

 

For the entire year on closed out trades, our profits increased to $13,599. 

 

The options expire on the third Friday of each Month unless otherwise posted.

 

 

The Stock table has the following 20 positions:

 

AA, APC(2), BAC.B.WS,  BSBR( 2 ), EYES, LVLT, MOS,   NBGGY (3), REPR,  SAN, STNG,SUN,TEXQY, TWTR, XLF, Short 3 SUN Calls

 

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

 

We are basing money management on a hypothetical $ 100,000, using a total of $75,896

for the 19 open long stock positions plus a credit of $900 for the SUN written Calls, which

reduces the requirement to $ 74,996. The Open Option Positions require $ 1,800.

This increases the margin requirement to $ 76,796, leaving $ 23,204 in cash.

 

These figures are approximate and there might be errors.

 

We have not counted the dividends received from many previous trades such as Apple, Colgate Palmolive, JP Morgan, North American Tankers, STNG, Santander, which pays over 5%, their Brazil affiliate BSBR and Blue Capital Reinsurance which was sold for a profit and many others.

 

The trading is hypothetical and we do not count commission costs.

 

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 Market Strategies

Market Strategies Fundamentals

April, DJIA’s best performing month of the year since 1950, has not gotten off to a great start. April 1 and April 6 were solid, but the other three trading days were losers and DJIA is down 1.1% for the month as of Friday’s close. Once again, earnings and global growth concerns are at the top of the list of reasons for today’s selloff. The Dow Jones Transportation Index is down 208.83 for the month or -2.6%.

Both the Dow and S&P 500 have remained above their critical 200-day moving averages while the DJT has careened well below it.

 

For the beginning of the critical month of April, the S&P 500 has had 3 up day and 3 down days for a net gain of 31 points. The Dow had 2 up day and 4 down days making a loss of 196 while the Tranny had only 1 up day and 5 down days losing 208 points.

 

Just a few days of weakness has caused Stochastic, relative strength and MACD indicators applied to DJIA, S&P 500 and NASDAQ to turn negative. The shift in momentum also occurred within a few percentage points of the highs from Q4 of last year for DJIA and S&P 500. NASDAQ’s rally off the February lows was not as strong and it came up well short of its highs. It now appears the market’s next move will be lower. DJIA 17000, S&P 500 1993 and NASDAQ 4725, last month’s monthly pivot point resistance level (red dashed line in March on each chart above), appear to be the first area of support.

 

All three Indicators, the MACD, RSI and Stochastics have all broken down signaling seasonal weakness just ahead of earnings.

The Transportation Average and Bond charts tell the true story of the markets. Either the Bonds are too high or the DJT, Dow and S&P are too low. They both can’t be levitating concomitantly. The tug-of-war between inflationary and deflationary assets is likely to be resolved in 2016. Either U.S. stock prices, which have been an outlier to the upside, are wrong, and a significant correction awaits stock investors, or U.S. bond prices, and global sovereign bond yields, which have priced in a significant deflationary headwind, are wrong, and safe-haven bond holders are set for losses. With both asset classes simultaneously priced for extremes, investors would be well served, in my opinion, to consider out-of-favor assets, including commodity and emerging market equities and alternative investment approaches. The XME, a metals and mining ETF,  is an indicator that prices may be turning up which also would be a negative for bonds.

 

Oil prices climbed sharply on Friday the most in two months after new data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration showed that U.S. crude production continued to decline, and crude stockpiles fell. Baker Hughes’ (NYSE:BHI) data revealed that the number of active oil rigs in the U.S. dropped to 354, the lowest level since 2009. According to Baker Hughes, the average U.S. rig count for March 2016 was 478, down 54 from the 532 counted in February 2016, and down 632 from the 1,110 counted in March 2015. Exxon’s refining operations have benefited from higher crack spreads and lower oil and natural gas price. The segment earnings in 2015 of $6,557 million were 115.3% higher than the earnings in 2014.

The dollar closed at 94.49, down 0.12  or -0.1% for the week, virtually unchanged.. Crude oil rallied  sharply up almost 8% to $ 39.92. Church and Dwight made a new all-time high (CHD: $ 94.11) + 0.4% following + 2.25 or +2.5% for the previous week. Colgate Palmolive and Coca-Cola were steady at their monthly highs. Ulta Salons ( ULTA $ 200.51 ) + 6.33 or + 3.3% was added to the S&P 500.

Wholesale Inventories in the U.S. fell 0.5% in February the fifth consecutive month of declines. Inventories of Durable Goods declined by 0.1% while nondurables fell 1.1%.

Atlanta Fed’s GDP Model now forecasts First Qtr GDP to have grown just 0.1% versus 0.4% prior.

 

 

Alcoa set to begin earnings season Monday, April 11th after the close..

 

 

Market Strategies Economic Data

The ISM Non-Manufacturing Index edged up to 54.5 in March from 53.4 in February. The March reading was above the Briefing.com consensus estimate of 54.0 and is the highest reading this year; however, the index stood at 56.9 in the same period a year ago.

The Non-Manufacturing Index report follows on the heels of the ISM Manufacturing Index, which also surprised to the upside. The dividing line between expansion and contraction is 50.0.

March marked the 74th straight month of expansion for the non-manufacturing sector.

The improvement in March for the Non-Manufacturing Index was aided by upticks in several component indexes, namely new orders (from 55.5 to 56.7), employment (from 49.7 to 50.3), prices (from 45.5 to 49.1), and new export orders (from 58.5 to 53.5).

The import index (from 55.5 to 53.0) was the only index to turn down from February. .

Market Strategies Cycles

Natural gas prices could double over the next year. The UNG can be bought on closes above 6.75. or between 6.60 and 6.70 with very limited downside risk.

Over-supply plus a warm 2015-2016 winter have resulted in low gas prices. That is about to change because supply is decreasing (Figure 1).

Total supply–dry gas production plus net imports–has been declining since October 2015* because gas production is flat, imports are decreasing and exports are increasing. Shale gas production has stopped growing and conventional gas has been declining for the past 15 years. As a result, the supply surplus that has existed since December 2014 is disappearing and will move into deficit by November 2016 according to data in the EIA March STEO (Short Term Energy Outlook)

 

Posted in The Petroleum Truth Report on April 7, 2016

During the last supply deficit from December 2012 to November 2014, Henry Hub spot prices averaged $4.05 per mm Btu. Prices averaged $1.99 per mm Btu in the first quarter of 2016 so it is reasonable that prices may double during the next period of deficit. EIA forecasts that gas prices will increase to $3.31 by the end of 2017 but that is overly conservative because it assumes an immediate and improbable return to production growth once the supply deficit and higher prices are established (Figure 1).

 

 

Production companies are in financial distress and are unlikely to return to gas drilling at the $2.75 price that EIA forecasts for November 2016. The oil-field service industry is in disarray and is probably unable to reassemble drilling and fracking crews and equipment in less than 6 to 12 months after demand resumes.

There are currently 92 rigs drilling for gas. That is 150 rigs less than the previous record-low set in 1992 (Figure 2). Production cannot be maintained at this level despite unrealistic faith in drilling efficiency and spare capacity from uncompleted wells.

 

Stock Trader’s Almanac Seasonal Trades:

 

SELL SPDR DJIA (DIA), SPDR S&P 500 (SPY), Vanguard REIT (VNQ) and iPath Bloomberg Copper TR Sub-Index ETN (JJC).

 

Continue to HOLD technology and small cap related ETFs as NASDAQ’s “Best Eight Months” ends in June.

 

BUY half positions in AdvisorShares Ranger Equity Bear (HDGE) on dips with a Buy Limit of 10.70, iShares 20+ Year Treasury (TLT) on dips with a Buy Limit of 129.75 and iShares Core US Aggregate Bond (AGG) on dips with a Buy Limit of 110.35.

 

Traders/investors following the Best 6 + 4-Year Cycle switching strategy detailed on page 62 of the Stock Trader’s Almanac 2016 can ignore this signal, but should strongly considering tightening stop losses and adding some downside protection.

Undervalued Small Cap Stocks

Lower Priced stocks that look to be a buy:

 

Repro-Med Systems, Inc ( OTCQX:  REPR 0.31 )*

Medical Stocks To Buy

Repro-Med Systems, Inc has had an increase in sales each of the last four years. They finished the year of 2014 with $ 11.2 million in sales reflecting top line growth of  29% from 2013.In each of the previous two years they had a 12% increase in sales. The company has had at least $ 700 thousand of net income in each of the past four years and has no debt. The patented needle sets alone can give the company a huge growth potential. In my opinion, with new products coming on stream, the stock should trade between $ 3 and $ 8 in the next two years.

Fourth quarter preliminary net revenues will exceed $3.2 million, representing a slight increase over the $3.1 million of the previous quarter.   Sales are led by the Company’s proprietary infusion products.  The Company’s fiscal year ended February 29, 2016.

Gold Mining USA  OTC: GMUI ( 0.06 )

Has both mining activities in Australia and the U.S. as well as the Savannah Resort, a senior living facility in Queensland, Australia. For more information please go to their website www.gmuiinc.com.

Gold Mining USA Inc is an emerging natural resources company focused on developing metallurgical and mining projects. The Company’s business model is to acquire projects with the potential to provide significant resources through exploratory drilling and generate value through their development, joint venture or divestment. GMUI has a team of experts who will manage all mining operations available on their website. In addition GMUI has an Offtake Agreement with a prestigious Swiss-based Gold buyer and Refiner to purchase its gold production at the spot price at the London Bullion Market ( LBMA ) on the day gold is collected.

GMUI Strategy: The company uses strict investment criteria for project acquisitions and focuses on available tenements in proximity to operating mines, or in areas with proven or potential in-ground resources in regions suitable for short-term development. Projects are selected based upon historical drilling or sampling results combined with robust geological mining concepts and financial models. The projects are explored, analyzed and where required, brought into compliance to JORC/NI 43-101.

Australia and Nevada provide the opportunities to exploit smaller, undeveloped or previously mined gold resources that are of no interest to the large mining companies. In addition, there are numerous small hard rock and alluvial gold mines which have viable gold resources but are unable to raise the funds to start up or continue operations.

An initial target acquisition, Mt Tymn, provides an opportunity to enter the gold mining arena in Australia on a small scale with the confidence of total outlay recovery and good profits, sufficient to expand operations by acquisition of similar nearby deposits to continue positive cash flow mining and commence an exploration program capable of even greater rewards.

Mt Tymn is located approximately 125kms southwest of Darwin, 1km east of the Stuart Highway and 18kms south of the Adelaide River. As part of this acquisition, GMUI will also own the MLs relating to Ringwood which is situated approximately 120 kms southeast of Darwin, in the Pine Creek area. The minimum gold resource at Mt Tymn is conservatively estimated at 227,000 ounces with large potential for further drilling and assessment. Gross revenue is estimated to be in excess of $ 300 million with a gross profit expected to exceed 45%.

Fundamental Analysis Stocks To Buy with Stops

Using fundamentals the following are stocks to buy and they have done well. Now it is your decision whether to take profits in these uncertain times.

Value oriented stocks were mixed last week. The Alcoa earnings are published Monday after the close. Sunoco, Church and Dwight, Harley Davidson and Sally Beauty , AT&T and Microsoft were all in good shape and should be bought on weakness.

Church and Dwight is looking solid and should be bought any two days down. Meanwhile we would not argue with taking profits.

The HDGE goes up when the market goes down.  The HDGE should be bought with a close stop loss at 10.68.. It has been a major success for those who believe in hedging.  The losses are very small on the HDGE considering huge gains on the longs.

We are on the sidelines looking at a buy pattern such as  the two GANN four-legged bottoms

at the 10.55- 85  level and the close above its 13-day price moving average.
