iStockAnalyst.com (Free subscription) | yesterday
Last week in my "Technical Analysis" post on November 15, 2009 I have expressed a possibility of a correction down. Yet, at the same time, I have mentioned that I would not wait for a strong move down, but rather for a short-term decline.

Fallond Stock Picks (Free subscription) | 21/11/2009
A weak close to the week left markets lingering around resistance, but close enough to keep things interesting for bulls. Supporting technicals have been on a downward turn since April, but these haven't broken any market yet. The Nasdaq shows weekly resistance and the challenge ahead for bulls; but no break yet. Contrary to the Nasdaq, the Nasdaq 100 actually managed a weak technical 'buy' in its...

Michael Johnston submits: For investors looking to make a play on the technology sector through ETFs, there are a number of options offering varying degrees of exposure. The PowerShares QQQ Trust ( QQQQ ) tracks the Nasdaq 100 Index, meaning it is tilted heavily towards the technology sector (about 65% of its holdings), but maintains moderate exposure to health care and consumer discretionary companies...

Fallond Stock Picks (Free subscription) | 19/11/2009
It was day when Tech breakouts failed as Large Caps clung on. Relative strength shifted away from speculative small caps and tech to 'safer' large caps. For the Nasdaq, the loss of the breakout shifted interest to the 20-day and/or 50-day MAs. Higher volume combined with heavier volume marked today as a firm distribution day. The Nasdaq 100 probably did enough to hold its breakout - but the action...

Why Aren’t Investors Calling On Telecom ETFs?
SeekingAlpha ETFs (Free subscription) | 18/11/2009
Gary Gordon submits: The iShares DJ Telecom Fund ( IYZ ) has been one of the weaker performers over the last 6 months. Indeed, it’s been a bit of an underachiever throughout 2009 with a 14.3% total return. Vanguard Telecom ( VOX ) has been a little stronger with a total YTD return of 18.4%. In any other year, one might be thrilled by the double-digit percentages. Yet the vast majority of sector...
