March 25, 2011 – Equity Averages trade between February highs and March lows
It was Friday, February 18th when The Dow Industrial Average reached 12,391.29 with the
NASDAQ as high as 2840.51. It was Wednesday, March 16th when the Dow tested 11,555.48 with
the NASDAQ at 2603.50. The rebound since then has the Dow just 1.8% below its February high
with the NASDAQ 3.7% lower. At the high we had a ValuEngine Valuation Warning. At the lows
stocks were still fundamentally overvalued, and remain overvalued today. At the highs weekly
momentum for the Dow was at 9.5. Today weekly momentum has declined to 7.6, with a trend
below 8.0 a negative. February 18th was the Friday before the unrest in Egypt came to a head.
We reached the lows following Japan’s earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster. Since the
March lows these uncertainties continue with Libya and many other global problems all
bubbling under the stock market. Meanwhile at home the US housing market depression has
deepened, community banks remain extremely stressed and regional banks face new
assessments from the FDIC beginning in April.
Stocks Remain Overvalued Fundamentally – We are not operating under a ValuEngine Valuation
Warning, but 58.7% of all stocks are overvalued. In addition 15 of 16 sectors are overvalued with 5 by
double-digit percentages.
