CNBC Stock Market Signal


From CNBC at:

In a live interview on CNBC’s Fast Money Strategic investor Dennis Gartman said, “I think the sell-off gets worse….Considering the market weakness and the string of negative economic data that's come out recently, “I think we’re looking at lower prices and a correction that could get reasonably more serious...”  When asked how serious, he replied, “Another 5-10% to the downside.  Let’s just say the trend is down and over the course of the next several weeks we’re probably going to be lower.”… 

…AND that was before the 1% selloff in the afternoon today.

When all of the CNBC analysts are talking about selling out, that is usually the time to buy.  We have not yet reached the CNBC buy signal.

NTSM analysis switched to Sell on Friday, 3 June; it switched to HOLD today.  We are getting closer to a Buy is some areas of the NTSM analysis; other areas are deteriorating, so at this point, we could go either way.  (See the page “How to Use the NTSM System”).

I am defensively positioned with 30% invested in stocks.
