    (1/25) Tuesday's Pre-Market Stock Movers & News

    Posted: 25 Jan 2022 05:05 AM PST

    Good morning traders and investors of the r/StockMarket sub! Welcome to Tuesday! Here are your pre-market stock movers & news on this Tuesday, January 25th, 2022-

    S&P 500 futures slide by more than 1% as market's wild ride continues

    U.S. stock index futures fell sharply in early trading Tuesday, after a wild session that saw the Dow erase a more than 1,100-point decline to finish the day in positive territory.

    Futures contracts tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 230 points, or 0.7%, having earlier fallen by as much as 380 points. S&P 500 futures dropped 1.3%, while Nasdaq 100 futures fell 1.9%.

    The 10-year Treasury yield, which has climbed this year as the Federal Reserve tightens its monetary policy, rose Tuesday morning. The higher rates pressured growth-oriented parts of the market with technology shares lower in early morning trading.

    During regular trading Monday, the Dow gained 99 points, or 0.3%, and snapped a six-day losing streak. At the lows of the day, the 30-stock benchmark shed 3.25%. The S&P 500 advanced 0.28% for its first positive session in five, after losing nearly 4% earlier in the day. At one point the benchmark index fell into correction territory, dropping 10% from its Jan. 3 record close.

    The Nasdaq Composite rose 0.6%, reversing a 4.9% decline from earlier in the day. The comeback was the first time the tech-heavy index clawed back a 4% loss to end higher since 2008.

    "The buyers are coming in to buy the dip here," Lindsey Bell, Ally's chief money and markets strategist, said Monday on CNBC's "Closing Bell." "Things looked a little bit over-stretched to the oversold side, so it's not surprising. But that doesn't mean we are going to be in the clear ... there's a lot that we have going on this week," she said

    Ultimately, Bell said volatility is here to stay until the Fed begins hiking rates.

    Despite Monday's comeback, the S&P 500 is still down 7.5% in January, its worst month since March 2020 at the onset of the pandemic.

    Markets have been rattled by a combination of factors, primarily a Federal Reserve expected to start raising interest soon to combat inflation, and geopolitical tensions between Russia and Ukraine. The economic impact of omicron also has been a concern, though signs that the Covid variant spread is diminishing have lessened those fears.

    The Fed's signal that it would began raising rates as soon as this March is the main culprit behind the market's volatile start to the year.

    The Federal Reserve Open Market Committee will begin its two-day meeting on Tuesday, with an interest rate decision slated for Wednesday at 2 p.m. ET. The Fed is not expected to begin hiking rates just yet, but is likely to maintain a path to tighter policy this year as it fights the highest inflation in decades.

    "We're in what I call the triple threat of ... rapidly rising rates, and the market has been working overtime, as have all of the algorithms, to try to figure out what that means, and what that pace means for valuations and global equities," UBS Private Wealth Management's Alli McCartney told CNBC Monday.

    Monday's reversal was "capitulation," she said, before adding that while volatility is here to stay, the market narrative is beginning to shift towards one of strong earnings growth supporting stocks.

    Monday's volatility follows the S&P 500′s worst week since the pandemic took hold in March 2020. Spooked by rising rates, investors have rotated out of high-growth areas of the market in favor of safer bets. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note stood at 1.769% on Monday.

    The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite has been hit especially hard and fell into correction territory last week. The index is down 11.4% so far this year, underperforming the S&P and Dow, which have declined 7.5% and 5.4%, respectively.

    "Considering expectations for solid gains in the economy and corporate profits...we're not convinced the fundamentals support any near-term technical weakness beyond the classic 10.0% correction," said John Lynch, chief investment officer for Comerica Wealth Management. "Yet a review of the technical and fundamental backdrops suggests a bottom is forming," he added.

    Investors digested a slew of quarterly earnings reports before the open.

    General Electric fell about 2% and Johnson & Johnson lost 1.8% in the premarket after both companies beat earnings expectations, but missed revenue estimates.

    3M rose 1.9% and American Express gained 3.4% after

    Dads IRA - Advice

    Posted: 25 Jan 2022 07:01 AM PST

    Hello everyone,

    My dad passed away from Covid last Valentine's Day and left my mom his IRA with about 137k. My dad was investing aggressively for his age (62) and invested almost 54% in stocks (mutual funds). In November it went up to 155k and now it's at about 135k. A few months back we went to see a financial advisor from Wells Fargo and something in my gut just told me it wasn't the right move. What should I do? Should I start selling his mutual funds and buy bonds? Should I find a financial advisor? For context my mom is turning 60 this year and she's thinking of retiring in the next 5 years.

    American Express announced earnings per share of $2.18 on revenue of $12.15B. Analysts polled by Investing.com anticipated EPS of $1.86 on revenue of $11.52B.

    God I love this market [Trade Review]

    Posted: 24 Jan 2022 11:29 PM PST

    So the market opens up down a super casual 60 points overnight. Man, what a way to start Monday right? Just like Thursday and Friday, I start thinking 'man we gotta be oversold by now, where's that relief bounce?!'. But I know it won't happen in the first 30 mins with all the zoo of profit taking and shorts and noise. So I have to force myself to literally sit on my hands and listen to some lo-fi and just keep breathing to relax my mind/body to help myself make calm and clear decisions when it's time to strike. Btw, this doesn't happen every time, today just happened to be a good day. That's just how it goes.

    Morning Period

    Anyways, here's /ES after about an hour. Those blue lines are anchored vwaps from the open and from the low of the day. The red dotted line is just a 65 period moving average, just a medium term average. It doesn't matter what you use, only the slope matters, whether it's trending up, down or sideways. We see some initial selling with some pretty low tick levels in the first 45 mins. You see those levels hanging around -1000 area. And that's important, it's not only that it flashes there but you want to see sustained levels in that area. After the lowest tick level of the day -1456 at 10:10, we see the TICKS back off and start heading to baseline. We see a low on the chart and the selling pressure hold back around 10:20. Some demand comes in here and buyers quickly take us to 4300 where anchored vwap from the open is. We battle with this for a bit and probe up. A couple years ago, I probably would've just been so eager and bought here. But now that I use market internals, it lets me see what's happening underneath the hood of this move. And as this probe was happening, the TICK was still only hitting a high of +500. That's still considered noise. You want to see sustained 800-1200 readings for a while to reveal some broad buying pressure. I wasn't seeing that so I didn't buy yet. I figure they fade this first attempt. Sometimes I'm wrong, today I was right. The breakout quickly deflates and we fall below the anchored vwap from the low. So this tells me everyone is underwater from today and sellers are in control again. Not looking to participate here. A bit later, we see it fade and start getting tight near the recent low, not a good sign. We sit here for a while and just stay tight near the low and then as I was watching the TICK, I see a quick flash down to -1000 at 11:35am. We then promptly crack. We find a new low at 4234 and actually see some decent down volume that could be signs of some capitulation. Maybe the sellers are getting exhausted finally. Here were the TICK readings up to noon there, still nothing to be excited about. We bounce a little but with still low TICK readings, I'm not convinced.

    Afternoon Period

    We then once again head lower to a support that I felt was the final frontier, the 4225-4215 area. There is a big volume profile cliff there. I was readying myself and I honestly was getting a bit too eager as I'd waited all morning to enter this trade. This could've definitely went lower, I just happened to get lucky and it finally carved a low. I bought one SPY 1/28 432 call for 4.02 @ 12:24pm.. This was 1 of 2 planned buys. Only half my buy so far, was planning on legging in. Now we start doing the same as before, start basing near the low. Except this time, the TICK levels weren't as negative and were steadily improving. We see some more impressive buying volume around the 12:42pm area. I place my second order and fill at 4.58. We were above the anchored vwap from the low and the selling pressure seemed to have abated so I took a chance. My stop was today's low. And shortly after, we see our first +1000 TICK level and we see this sustained for the next 10-15 minutes. At this point we are also breaking out above the anchored vwap from the open so that tells me buyers are fully in control of this session, this rally is underway. Now the game is patience and letting this ride out. We start really flying and then eventually we lose steam again and come back down on top of both the anchored vwaps around 2:30pm. Crazy how accurate this indicator is. Here's the TICK during this fade, it was weak but it was backing off a bit. This is where I really starting sweating bullets. I had seen this market again and again have fake breakouts and keep selling off, I knew it could do it. But I was in this trade so my emotions were invested too. I said my stop was the low of the day so I kept to that and thankfully it dipped below the VWAP and came back up and never looked back. I didn't want to be in this overnight because how volatile this market is so I just took my money and ran. I closed near the end of the day as the shorts were getting squeezed, you can see my entries there and exits.. I sold one call at 3:38pm for 10.00. I sold the 2nd at 3:59pm for 11.80.

    • Total profit - $1,320
    • Investment outlay - $860
    • ROI - 153%

    Closing Thoughts

    I wish they all went like this. Happy to answer any questions. I was watching the VIX throughout all this as well and it was adding conviction to my case. I just didn't include anything on it because it would be too much to screenshot. Good luck out there everyone. Sorry for all the weird formatting with the lines, the links cause line breaks.
