Index Trading Weekly Update
Here is a sample of the last newsletter: SP500 Last Signal Comment ND100 Last Signal Comment DOW Last Signal Comment Special Option Strategy Update Economic Current Conditions Mr Greenspan tried to reassure investors this week about the continuation of the current economic growth. Time will tell if he is right. The employment situation in the US was weak in May with just 78,000 new jons created compared to 275,000 in april. The employment numbers keep coming in in some inconsistent way. In march we had only 140,000 jobs created which was considered weak. The SP500 PE ratio is at 19.40 which is considered low. Remember that when the last major economic cycle that started in march 2003 the PE ratio was at around 16. So we are at the low end. The markets are way from being overbought and we should not expect any major bear market for the time being. The last revised GDP for the first quarter of 2005 was at 3.5 just .1 away from expectations compared to the previous reading of 3.8. It starts to show a slight deceleration in the economic growth but nothing to worry at this point.
