Market Commentary

Market Stance: BULLISH (since October 9, 2009)

We had a solid up week, but we underperformed due to sitting on a high level of cash for most of the week. It appears I have again erred on the side of caution. Thursday a week ago, I did a lot of selling, noting that market risk was "extremely high". My indicators were overall bearish, and recent heavy volume was on the sell side.

Now, as of yesterday (Friday, October 9), my indicators have returned to overall bullish. I am not entirely confident of this rally, but I am going with my indicators. I changed my stance from bearish to bullish yesterday, and put most of our cash back to work.

Last week, we enjoyed a solid up week, but we underperformed the market. (Deen Capital +1.9%; S&P +4.6%). I mentioned that my indicators are now "overall bullish". Specifically, two are bullish and one is bearish. The "one bearish", my market internals indicator, is rising, and is right on the brink of turning neutral.

At this juncture, a lot depends on third quarter earnings, which will flood the news wires next week.

My Three Primary Technical Indicators:

                                       Prior week             Now
                                       ----------           -------
NASDAQ Timing Model (Ver.10r):           BULLISH            BULLISH (1)
Last signal:  BULLISH on Sep 10, 2009

Performance of Recent Stock Picks:  -2.4 BEARISH       +6.4 BULLISH (2)

Market Internals:                    63% BEARISH        81% BEARISH (3)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Market's Overall Technical Rating:       BEARISH            BULLISH

Stocks:Cash ratio (average):              18:82              89:11

(1) A proprietary computer model based on technical analysis of the NASDAQ Composite.

(2) This number (from -10 to +10) is based on the performance of ALL my recent stock picks (I actually buy only some of these). A positive number means my recent stock picks are generally rising; a negative number means they are generally falling. Even so, I consider a reading below +3.1 to be bearish. I require a reading of +5.6 or better to call this indicator bullish.

(3) This is the percentage of stocks ($8 and up) which are trading above their 50-day moving average. The rating of this percentage (bullish, bearish or neutral) is based on which way it's been moving recently -- up, down or sideways.
