Market Commentary

Market Stance: BULLISH (since September 1, 2010)

Last week was a banner week by every measure, especially for Deen Capital client accounts. Last week:

* The S&P 500 scored a huge gain, +3.8%, thanks to big up moves on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

* I turned bullish Wednesday morning.

* Deen Capital client accounts fared even better, gaining +4.8% on average.

* Year-to-date performance shifted from negative back to positive, for both Deen Capital and the S&P. The YTD scorecard now reads: Deen Capital +2.8%, S&P +0.3%.

* My indicators shifted from overall bearish to unanimously bullish. My NASDAQ Timing Model gave a bullish signal at Wednesday's close.

In my opinion, the change of the calendar, from August to September, also marks a change in market psychology, from negative to positive. This new positive mood should last, I expect, for at least a few more weeks.

September is historically the worst month for stocks. Perhaps, knowing this, everyone did all their selling this year in August.

We are now aggressively positioned. Our portfolio is now some 40% more volatile than the market. This is appropriate under healthy market conditions.

My Three Primary Technical Indicators:

                                       Prior week             Now
                                       ----------           -------
NASDAQ Timing Model (Ver.10r):           BEARISH            BULLISH (1)
Last signal:  BULLISH on Sep 1, 2010

Performance of Recent Stock Picks:  -1.4 BEARISH       +6.7 BULLISH (2)

Market Internals:                    52% NEUTRAL        74% BULLISH (3)

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

Stocks:Cash ratio (average):              52:48              97:3

(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.
