The market is not overly healthy right now. You should be cautious with your investments. There are still some good players out there and I expect this coming week to be slightly positive. Some analysts think we will be down for most of August and maybe into September. My expectation is that it will be generally flat. Cash is king right now so look for bargains!

Investment Indicator Thoughts

S&P 500
The general S&P 500 (ticker is ^GSPC and the first line of my investment indicator articles). This indicator is seriously into the wait cycle. While the trend the last couple of days last week was positive, we are still well below the stage where I think the stocks followed by this indicator are going to rise in general. Extreme caution should be considered before any investment is made on an individual stock.

NASDAQ Composite
The NASDAQ Composite (the ticker is ^IXIC and the second line of my investment indicator articles). This indicator is seriously into the wait cycle. While the trend the last couple of days last week was positive, we are still well below the stage where I think the stocks followed by this indicator are going to rise in general.

The market was generally good last week and should be good this week as well. Retail oriented stocks tended to have good announcements which may signal a positive couple weeks for any stock that is driven by consumer spending. More concern is on geo-political events that could cause a pullback. There is a very good chance that the week will be flat so individual stock choices will be important.

Investment Indicator Thoughts

S&P 500
The general S&P 500 (ticker is ^GSPC and the first line of my investment indicator articles). It was a tough week last week with this index seeing an early rise primarily due to good news of certain retail stocks and then falling at the end of the week but still ending the week slightly ahead. This was caused by geo-political events along with some less than excellent results for Q2. I think this week will also continue to have challenges with last week ending with negative MACD and Fast EMA underwater, so investors should be cautious.
