ANOTHER ALARM RINGS FOR THE STOCK MARKET, BUT THERE IS NO REASON TO PANIC YET $DIA $SPY $MSFT $AAPL $FB $KWEB $MU $PTON

Another alarm rang for the stock market when a survey of purchasing managers of American factories fell to a level last seen during the Great Recession.

Is this a reason to panic? Let’s explore with the help of a chart.

Chart

Please click here for an annotated chart of a Dow ETF DIA,  which mirrors the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA.

Note the following:

• The chart shows when September’s ISM manufacturing data were released. The index came in at 47.8%. A number less than 50% indicates contraction.

• The chart shows that the stock market fell after the ISM data were released.

• The chart shows the Arora signal to start a short-term trade by short-selling Nasdaq 100 ETF QQQ. For those who could not short but are aggressive, a signal was given to buy leveraged inverse ETF SQQQ for a short-term trade. The ETF rises when the stock market falls.

• Both short-term trades are profitable, as of this writing. Partial profits have been taken on them.

• The chart shows that long-term Arora portfolios are up to 62% protected at this time. The protection is reviewed daily.

• Under these market conditions, investors ought to consider Arora’s 18th Law of Investing and Trading: “Diversifying by time frames provides a consistent stream of profits.”

• The chart shows that the relative strength index (RSI) is oversold. In plain English, this means that the stock market can easily stage a big jump up on even the slightest bit of good news. The good news may come from data related to services.

• The chart shows that volume did not jump during the selloff. This indicates that this was not a high-conviction selloff.

• Investors should pay special attention to the word “manufacturing.” The data were related to manufacturing. Manufacturing is only a small part of the U.S. economy.

• There have been previous instances when this manufacturing data indicated a recession but there subsequently was none, and the stock market went on to new highs.

• More critical are ISM data related to services, weekly unemployment claims and the upcoming jobs report.

Stocks to watch

Investors ought to carefully watch the following stocks to get better indications of where the stock market may go.

• Apple AAPL stock is key. As of this writing, the consensus on Wall Street is that China will not make an example of Apple even if the trade war escalates and consumers will keep on buying expensive Apple products and services at a higher rate than the present even if a recession occurs.

There is a better than 70% probability that Wall Street’s consensus on Apple is wrong. There is significantly higher risk in Apple stock than generally believed. Apple fans, before sending me hate mail, note that Apple stock was originally bought at $18.73 in The Arora Report’s long-term portfolio. An important key to success in investing and trading is to look at the data completely objectively and never through the lens of one’s wishes and needs.

• Microsoft MSFT  has been the go-to stock for bulls. Wall Street has come to believe that Microsoft is positioned in such a way that “heads,” you win, and “tails,” you win. On the surface it seems true. However, if you dig deeper, there is a high probability that Wall Street is wrong….Read more at MarketWatch.
