Options Trading Strategies Comments
This week was anothermonumental gain for theOptions account with a profit of $3200bringing our YTD performance over an astonishing 102%
What we found interesting (you can be the judge) was that the biggest gains were generated AGAIN on a put position while we had a move to new 5 year highs in the major indexes. There are always going to be contrary moves within a bull market and because the backdrop is so strongly bullish these contrary moves tend to be exacerbated. When it’s so easy to go along for the ride up, the holders of the non-participants become indiscriminant sellers of the laggards. And when you get a “battleground” stock like HLF; the moves become extreme. The AAII numbers in the Market Lab below show that the bullish number came down and not from a move to bearish, but to neutral. This market continues to climb the wall of worry but we remain cautious based on the extensive move without any of the normal and expectable pullback. Europe or the Middle East can become an issue any overnight, and while a rotation out of the bonds into stocks may be bullish, the economy and the housing markets cannot yet take an increase in interest rates, and trying to finance our growing deficits at rates higher than what we have now would be crippling. This is why we continue to maintain our balanced approach to portfolio management. CAM

The options call for a $ 2,500 investment unless otherwise started, while each stock position requires $ 5,000 unless specifically stated.
We are basing money management on a hypothetical $ 100,000.00 and are using $ 4,320 in three options positions and $ 67,072.00 in the17 stock positions a total of $ 71,392. 00 with $ 28,608.00 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.

Market Strategies Trading Fundamentals
Transportation went from the best performing index the past two weeks to the worst last week. The DJ 20 was down 0.22%, the only index lower on the week. Nasdaq rose 0.93%, and not that much but enough to be the leader. UPS had a miss in earnings which sent the stock careening down and a modest influence on the DJT.
Telecommunications was by far the leader last week up 3.38%. Utilities gained 1.36% and Oil and Gas 1.10%. Technology added 1.06%; Health care gained 0.78% and Financials 0.77%. Consumer Goods added 0.30% and Industrials rounded out the winners with a small 0.18% gain. Consumer services fell 0.16% and Basic Materials 0.85%.
Market Strategies Economic Data
The Unemployment Report turned out to be most eventful. Unemployment rose a tick to 7.9% but averaged 7.8% for most of 2012. The initial Payroll number was bearish at 157K when 180K was expected. Then came the Workweek, down to 34.4 hours from 34.5 hours, also negative. Bonds soared on the news. The S&P came down a little; then came the usual revisions for both November and December. November Payrolls were revised higher with an 86,000 surprise from 161K originally reported. December Payrolls were revised up from 168K originally reported to 202K. The additional 127K jobs sparked a big change in the markets.
Suddenly the March S&P reversed from a decline to 1500.00 to a jump to 1507.50. The TBT reversed from a decline to 66.45, which would have been down 100 pts on the day to a rally all the way to 69.15, 170 pts higher on the day an outside day up and move of 270 points. The annual revisions for all of 2012 were included in this report showing that 335,000 nonfarm payroll jobs had not been counted. Hourly Wages also rose 0.3% which was refreshing as an increase from what had been 0.1% and 0.2% monthly gains. Monthly Payroll gains averaged 181K in 2012.
However, the big picture remains Fed favorable for continued monetary expansion as payroll growth is not enough to bring unemployment below 6.5%.
Early in the week there was a report of a huge drop in January Consumer Confidence to just 58.6, down from 66.7 in December and a consensus of 65.1. GDP was minus 0.1% for the 4th Qtr and pending Home sales fell 4.3%. With the pending Budget and sequester ahead of us there is plenty of worry ahead for the markets, because as to remain friendly they need to be able to climb a wall of worry.

Market Strategies Cycles
The S&P 500 has rallied from 1398.11 Dec 31st to 1513.1 ( +8.2% ) and the Dow from 13,104.14 to 14,009.49 for the week ended February 1st ( +6.9% ) and the first five weeks of the year.
Stretched. After blasting through resistance at their old September 2012 highs, DJIA and S&P 500 have barely paused. NASDAQ continues to struggle with Apple’s poor performance and has yet to break out to a new 52-week high, but has still participated in the rally. As a result of the buying frenzy; stochastic, relative strength, and MACD indicators are all signaling an overbought market. This does not guarantee the demise of the rally; it only suggests that as DJIA and S&P 500 climb toward their previous all-time highs that further gains could be arduous
Devised by Yale Hirsch in 1972, the January Barometer has registered only seven major errors since 1950 for an 88.9% accuracy ratio. This indicator adheres to propensity that as the S&P 500 goes in January, so goes the year. Of the seven major errors Vietnam affected 1966 and 1968. 1982 saw the start of a major bull market in August. Two January rate cuts and 9/11 affected 2001.The market in January 2003 was held down by the anticipation of military action in Iraq. The second worst bear market since 1900 ended in March of 2009 and Federal Reserve intervention influenced 2010. Including the eight flat years yields a .762 batting average.
