Stock Market Video: Good News

In this week’s Stock Market Video, Cabot China & Emerging Markets Report Editor Paul Goodwin says it’s good to have some good news after what seems like an extremely long period of counseling people to be patient. The major indexes look much better, which has given Cabot’s market timing indicators a buy signal. It’s time to put some money to work, but don’t jump in with both feet, instead, let the market pull you in.

Does Ulta Salon Offer a Beautiful Set-Up?

As for the current market environment, it’s still not quite there yet.  Of course, the major indexes have bounced nicely, but most of the action has been in the off-the-bottom crowd … the stocks that fell 40% to 50% during the past three to six months like the financials, the transports, the oils, the commodities, the industrials and the semiconductors.

Stocks discussed: Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (GMCR), Netflix (NFLX), Baidu (BIDU), Priceline.com (PCLN), Red Hat (RHT), Dunkin’ Brands (DNKN), Under Armour (UA), Intuitive Surgical (ISRG), Google (GOOG) and Vmware (VMW).

Stock Market Analysis Video: An Encouraging Week

In this week’s Stock Market Video, Cabot Market Letter Editor Mike Cintolo says that what started out as another ugly week for the market turned into an encouraging week.

Either way, it’s important to keep your watch list fresh. Here are some stocks we’re watching: Amazon.com (AMZN), Under Armour (UA), Tesla Motors (TSLA) and Dunkin’ Brands (DNKN).

I hope you won’t take it the wrong way if I say that I hope you’re feeling bad about how the market is acting. It’s nothing personal, and I certainly hope you’ve been following our advice and have the growth portion of your portfolio heavily in cash. I hate to see anyone (including myself) losing money in the market. My hope that the market depresses you just reflects the reality of what it takes for a bear market to turn itself around, which is for a vast majority of investors to get discouraged and sell out. This is a...
