Here is a Special Email Alert I broadcast to my brokerage clients and to those that subscribe to my twice a day newsletter, Commodity Insite. I sent out two Special Alerts today in addition to my two regular broadcasts. And here are a few of my thoughts.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPECIAL EMAIL ALERT!
Dow futures are 87 lower at 23,286 and the Russell 2000 ois 20.70 lower at 1487.70. The last time the Russell was here was in the final few days of September. But in the final few days of September, Dow futures were under 22,400, down 890 to 900 points down from here.
The S&P right now is 11.00 lower but note the Nasdaq is unchanged at 6215.50, but far off the high of the posted at 6251.50. Should the Nasdaq close lower it will be posting a downside key reversal. But a lower close is needed.
The Dow needs to close under the 23,200 level to appear to be in big trouble. The low today is 23,274. If the Dow cannot drop below that today, it may rally tomorrow. If is closes below 23,200, tomorrow could be one of bright red ink across the board for all stocks indexes.
Watch the Dow closely. If it slips another 70 to 90 points, the Nasdaq should drop hard and the weakness will likely infect the cattle market as well. It is not unusual for cattle and the Dow to move in near tandem. I have touted that theory on and off the past two months and that certainly seems to be the pattern.
I have no desire to be long much of anything here in the 4th quarter of the year. If the Dow begins to trend lower, I expect a host of other markets to follow suit and led by cattle and feeders and followed by lean hogs.
The time is 2:25 p.m. Chicago
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With the Dow ending deep in the red along with the S&P and Russell 2000, tomorrow should be interesting.
The time is now 3:48 p.m. Chicago
