Jan 06 2014

As volume and activity returns to the markets after the holiday season, we open new year with 1:5 Catch of the Day on FB. And that's on top of a few more, including 1:3 short on BBY. The play below is total textbook, right from the pages of 111 TRADES:

Almost perfect day, ending with 1:2 on GLD short (I mean what else to do at the end of trading session but short GLD, right?)

[10:21] {+cc_9} cant even cross $52 on upside...jesus christ what a dog this stock right now
[10:21] {+cc_9} maybe if I dump it here, it will fly to 54
[10:22] {+cc_9} GS gave FSLR a $45.00 target price
[10:22] {+cc_9} so i guess they want it there today

[10:50] {+cc_9} im getting the feeling that each time they move the offers $0.20, they get short then dump the bid $0.30+
[10:50] {+cc_9} that's been the case so far watching the L2 and order flow
[10:51] {dino} scty drop

Market Week Wrap-up

TradeTheNews.com  Weekly Market Update: Welcome to 2014

- The year 2014 began halfway through the week, closing out a year during which by most measures, economic recovery established itself throughout the global economy. US, European and Japanese equity markets closed on Tuesday at or not far from their highs of the year, while the performance of other Asian equity markets was less impressive. On Thursday, European and US indices stumbled lower. US equities saw their first down day for the opening trading session of the year since 2008. Fixed income investors saw yields move higher, with the yield on the 10-year UST topping out on Thursday around 3.04%, its highest level since 2011. Bund and gilt futures started the year with sharp losses of their own, as investors bet on more European stabilization in 2014. For the week, the DJIA less than 0.1%, the S&P500 lost 0.5% and the Nasdaq fell 0.6%.

- By many measures, 2013 was a banner year. Equities closed out the year with outsized gains: the S&P 500 rallied 30%, its best year since 1995, to close at an all-time high of 1,848 on Dec. 31st, while the Nikkei 225 gained 57%, its best year since 1972. Natural gas finally moved out of the doldrums, gaining 26% in 2013, its best gain since 2005. Renaissance Capital reported that the US IPO market was busier than in any year since 2000, with 222 companies raising a total of $55B. Deal volume in the US was up 11% y/y to around $1 trillion, while global deal volume remained more or less flat. Meanwhile after 13 positive years, the US fixed income market had its worst year since 1994, with the Barclays US aggregate bond index declining 1.9% y/y. Gold was the other notable looser, with the yellow metal loosing 28% in 2013, ending its 12-year bull run. EUR/USD and USD/JPY closed out 2013 just off one-year highs (at 1.38 and 105, respectively). USD/CNY ended 2013 at 6.0539, up 2.9% y/y compared to the 1.2% rise seen in 2012 and the 4.7% rise in 2011.

- December manufacturing PMI data from around the globe have been under the microscope this week. The official China data came in at 51.0, barely above contraction and at a four-month low. In Europe, Germany and Italy saw readings that indicated a solid level of expansion, with both sustaining six months of growth, while France's manufacturing PMI fell to a seven-month low, with sharp declines in both output and new orders. The US Markit PMI reading hit its highest level in a year, with the output index at its best level in nearly two years.

- The October S&P/Case-Shiller Index indicated home prices continued robust gains through the fall, with the y/y gain at 13.6%, the strongest showing since February 2006. Analysts highlighted that Q3 data from CoreLogic data showed 4.1 million homeowners have escaped negative equity in 2013, helping to significantly improve household balance sheets and confidence (6.4 million remain in negative equity). The December consumer confidence survey certainly reinforced this point, with the index rising to 78.1 from 72 in November. The Conference Board said that sentiment was close to a 5-year high, with consumers attributing the improvement to more favorable economic and labor market conditions.

- Detroit's Big Three turned in their best showing since 2007, reporting 2013 industry sales up 7.6% y/y, at 15.6M units. December sales results, however, fell short of consensus expectations. Ford's US sales grew 1.7% in the month, while the company's 2013 US sales increased 10.8%. Chrysler December sales grew 6% y/y, with 9% growth in 2013 sales, its biggest improvement in six years. General Motors saw its sales during the last month of the year slipping 6.3%, saying bad weather cut into December sales, and discounts in late November pulled sales ahead from December.

- Activist investor Carl Icahn has identified a new target for his loving attention: Hertz. On Monday, the company disclosed that it had adopted a one-year shareholder rights plan after having "dialogue" with a number of shareholders. Early reports said that Corvex and Third Point were building stakes and may have talked with management. Then on Friday, CNBC reported that Icahn had accumulated 30-40 million common shares, to the surprise of nobody. Share of Hertz are up more than 12% on the week.

- Cooper Tire's $2.2 billion merger deal with India's Apollo Tyre has now officially gone flat, after months of suits and counter suits between the firms. Cooper said financing is no longer available and continues to claim, as it has for months, that Apollo breached the terms of the agreement. Fiat reached a $3.65 billion deal with the UAW that will allow it to acquire the remaining outstanding 41.5% stake in Chrysler. Network security firm FireEye has a $1.05B stock-and-cash deal in hand to acquire Mandiant, which has become known for its forensic investigations of IT security breaches. Mandiant is best known for publishing a detailed report in early 2013 about a Chinese military hacking group in Shanghai responsible for hacking hundreds of companies and organizations in the US.

- Netflix said it was testing new price plans for streaming video as it tries to lure more viewers. Among the plans being tested are a $6.99/month plan that allows only one video stream to be watched and a $9.99/month plan that allows three streams at one time. This compares to the company's standard $7.99/month offering for video on up to 2 screens at once and an $11.99/month family plan for streaming up to four shows at once.

- FX markets were roiled by low-volume trading in the year-end holiday period. EUR/USD backed off two-year highs just below 1.3900 seen last Friday. Skeleton crews manning trading desks did not react to weekend comments from ECB's Draghi that there was no urgent need for ECB action amid encouraging signs that the euro zone crisis has subsided. Dealers were watching rates in the first days of the New Year for signs the liquidity squeeze that supported the euro in mid-December was continuing to fade. During the week, ECB excess liquidity rose to around €275B (the highest level since July), compared to around €200B on Dec 27th. USD/JPY maintained the strength seen in the last days of December through the first few weeks of January, around five-year lows. Japanese markets reopen on Monday after being closed most of the week surrounding the New Year's holiday.

Little luck never hurts. As I post this, trade hits 1:10.

With one stop and a few more nice winners, made for quite a strong finish to this holiday week, and the whole season of holiday trading. Usually, not really easy one to trade, but we handled it quite well.

[14:14] {+cc_9} sob VXX catching a slight bid

[14:14] {nemo} action getting volatile in tna

01[14:17] {@Threei}  weird drop

[14:17] {+cc_9} yes, GILD just trashed

[14:17] {+cc_9} SPY also near lows

[14:18] {+cc_9} crashathon

[14:19] {nemo} trying to entice the bears back in

[14:22] {+cc_9} yes, IWM kinda held its shit 

[14:22] {+cc_9} fast bounce off lows TNA/IWM

[14:22] {nemo} doesn't look like new low in iwm

[14:24] {+cc_9} news out that people are surprised FB scans people's messages

[14:25] {nemo} it's an NSA front company

[14:25] {+cc_9} NSA now tapping hardware too

[14:25] {+cc_9} this is why I always advise to buy your PC in parts and put it together yourself

[14:26] {+cc_9} not only it will work much better, but the Party Van won't be outside your house when you have 5% left to finish a torrent

01[14:26] {@Threei}  what I did couple years ago

[14:26] {nemo} I remember back in the first Iraq war, they intercepted a network printer going to Iraq, and inserted a control virus

[14:26] {+cc_9} (hehe)

[14:26] {nemo} hehehehe

[14:27] {+cc_9} eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehehehehe

[14:28] {+cc_9} nemo, check pm

[14:28] {nemo} ahhh the good old days of New Years eve:  http://dailym.ai/1dXdvpd

[14:29] {RonS} ...thought that happened every time there is a soccer game over there...

01[14:29] {@Threei}  but, cc9... if they tap hardware, how are you guaranteed the parts you buy are not tapped yet?

[14:31] {nemo} yeah, that's what I think also

[14:32] {RonS} wti 95.40

[14:32] {nemo} just need one innocuous chip on a board somewhere

[14:32] {+cc_9} TNA cash cowing

[14:32] {+cc_9} buy low sell high nonstop

[14:32] {+cc_9} every dip

[14:32] {+cc_9} load

[14:33] {+cc_9} Vad, that's simple

[14:33] {+cc_9} because computers that are already put together are being sold by regular off the shelf US retailers

[14:33] {+cc_9} when you buy parts separate, they come from china

[14:33] {+cc_9} NSA has no time to scan your GPU, CPU, monitor boxes to find out which one has the mobo

[14:33] {+cc_9} w/e makes their job harder, I am all for it

[14:33] {nemo} ahhhh...better to have the chinese hacking your computer then

[14:34] {+cc_9} newegg.com = where i shop

[14:34] {nemo} or Tigerdirect

[14:34] {RonS} ya, why buy US bugs when you can get Chinese ones...?

01[14:34] {@Threei}  yeah, mine was entirely built from newegg's parts

[14:34] {+cc_9} Chinese has not been accused of putting backdoors on computers that are sold in the US nemo, NSA has.

[14:34] {+cc_9} ron, read above

[14:34] {+cc_9} so until then, there is no proof

[14:34] {nemo} yes, but they have been accused of bugging hardware going back a few years

[14:35] {+cc_9} yes, but no

[14:35] {nemo} it's all fiction until otherwise proven, then how would we know

[14:35] {+cc_9} its much easier to put a backdoor on a PC that's already put together

[14:35] {+cc_9} than to go through 10 boxes to look for the motherboard

[14:36] {+cc_9} like i said, its not fool proof, but its less dumb

[14:36] {nemo} path of least resistance

[14:36] {nemo} anybody ever see "Remo Williams"

[14:37] {+cc_9} nemo, TigerDirect is good, but newegg is unmatched as far as prices go

[14:37] {+cc_9} not sure if you're aware, but comp USA is now part of TigerDirect

[14:37] {+cc_9} they renamed the shops

[14:37] {nemo} didn't know

[14:37] {+cc_9} "and if you don't know, now you know, nemo" B.I.G

[14:38] {RonS} Chinese don't have this tradition I guess:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVIA1n5ng4Y

[14:38] {+cc_9} "On January 6, 2008, a month after CompUSA was sold to liquidators, Systemax, Inc. (TigerDirect's parent company) announced its purchase of 16 CompUSA locations as well as the brand, trademarks, e-commerce business, and technical services."

[14:38] {nemo} ahhhh

[14:39] {+cc_9} TNA cash cow'ing

[14:40] {+cc_9} nemo, in the tech world, we call FB a "honeypot"

[14:41] {+cc_9} its basically a data collection website that lures in the poor saps

[14:41] {nemo} Yep

[14:41] {+cc_9} "hey friend, im coming over right now, i got that oz of pot you wanted!"

[14:41] {+cc_9} meanwhile, the cops are behind you on the freeway lol

[14:42] {RonS} nemo, that cat pix is classic...should post the link here...

[14:43] {nemo} oh that twitter retweet?

[14:43] {RonS} ya

[14:43] {+cc_9} VXX catching bids again

[14:49] {RonS} ya, it is all surreal to me too... effectivley cigs outlawed and pot sanctioned

[14:49] {nemo} just saw an elephant fly by

[14:50] {nemo} not like on the Pink Floyd Album cover

[14:50] {nemo} yeah, look at it every day...........................not

01[14:50] {@Threei}  quality of the grass is determined to the flying by elephant's color

[14:50] {nemo} ahhhh

01[14:50] {@Threei}  to = by

[14:51] {nemo} yeah, got it
