Digo que el SP 500 PARECE ya estar en la pauta correctiva lo del Dow es solo cuestión de tiempo

el AT indicaba que por estas fechas deberia iniciar la pauta correctiva, si hablamos de elliot que vez en el S&P desde los 1296 de ayer?...

Pues lo que yo veo son 5 ondas down bien definidas desde 1296 hasta 1285.3, lo que indica el inicio de un tramo correctivo ahora deberia venir un rebote en 3 ondas hasta un nivel fibbo... veamos

Me imagino que te refieres al grafico de 10 minutos del SP 500 respecto a las 5 ondas dow que mencionas. En el grafico de 30 minutos se observa un gap en 1275 – 1280 puntos que esta haciendo de soporte hasta el momento .
Para mi lo que me esta confirmando (todavía no cierra la bolsa) el inico de la pauta correctiva en el SP 500 es el patrón de velas que se esta formando en el grafico diario llamado estrella del atardecer, esta figura me esta indicando el final de la tendencia alcista

Para los que usan FAS/FAZ... el RIFIN testeando el lado inferior de su canal alcista iniciado en diciembre 2010, ojo si pierde este soporte

HOLA MARIO, PODRIAS EXPLICARME UN POC MAS SOBRE TU COMENTARIO EN FAS / FAZ. YO COMPRE FAZ AYER. GRACIAS!

[El_Diez]

Nos preguntan hasta que punto aprox puede terminar la pauta correctiva en el SP 500 , dar una respuesta a esa pregunta en este momento no me atrevería todavía, dudo que sea una corrección como la que vimos a finales de abril del 2010 , será de menos intensidad (es mi punto de vista) , por el momento yo me plateo los posibles soportes que hay y eso lo muestro en el grafico.

Los bancos hacen bajar profundamente a las acciones

Las acciones en US bajaban mas que en los ultimos dos meses debido a que las utilidades de los grandes bancos envio a los inversionistas a buscar inversiones mas seguras.

El S&P 500 cayo 13.10 puntos o 1.01% para cerrar a 1,281.92. La caida viene despues de siete semanas de alzas. La ultima caida de este tipo fue el 23 de Noviembre.

Banks Pace Steep Drop in Stocks

By JONATHAN CHENG And KRISTINA PETERSON
U.S. stocks notched their steepest one-day drop in nearly two months, as weak earnings from big banks sent investors into safer assets.

The broad Standard & Poor's 500-stock index shed 13.10 points, or 1.01%, to finish at 1281.92. The decline comes after a seven-week run that has seen the markets trickle steadily upward. The last time the S&P 500 fell by even this relatively small amount was on Nov. 23.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average, which tracks 30 of the biggest blue-chip stocks in the U.S., fell a more modest 12.64 points, or 0.11%, to finish at 11825.29.

Small-capitalization stocks fared worse, with the Russell 2000 Index tumbling 2.5%. Investors sought refuge in Treasurys, which rose across the board to push the yield on the benchmark 10-year note down to 3.339%.

"This was due; for the four months, the market has almost gone straight up," said Bob Auer, portfolio manager of Auer Growth Fund. "Four months without even shaking the tree? I don't think this is too bad."

The market decline came on a day when the Investment Company Institute reported net inflows of $3.77 billion into domestic equity for the week ended Jan. 12, compared to net outflows of $4.23 billion the week before that.

"The market went up before the retail investor came in, and it can come down after they join," Mr. Auer said. "It's basically an institutional market, and if institutions are worried about China, Steve Jobs getting sick, that's going to override what Joe Public's trying to do."

Wednesday's market declines were led by financial giants Bank of America and American Express, the two weakest components on the Dow.

Amex lost 2.4% after the card company projected fourth-quarter earnings that slightly missed Wall Street estimates and said it will cut about 550 jobs as it consolidates some facilities. Bank of America fell 4.2% ahead of its earnings results on Friday, amid general gloominess around the country's largest banks.

.A crop of disappointing bank earnings soured the market's mood on financials, one of the biggest beneficiaries of the recent rally on the stock market.

The biggest letdown came from Goldman Sachs, which saw its fourth-quarter earnings narrowly beat Street estimates but fall short on revenue. Shares of Goldman fell 4.7%, while rival Morgan Stanley sank 3.5%.

"Goldman doesn't usually miss ... but at the end of the day, Goldman had a trading revenue decline, and it just makes Goldman human," said Michael Shea, managing partner at Direct Access Partners.

Northern Trust sank 5.7% after its fourth-quarter earnings dropped 22% as persistently low interest rates constrained the trust-and-custody bank's interest income and trust fee levels. State Street fell 4.1% after fourth-quarter profit plunged 84% on charges, and the money manager said it would reduce its work force by 1,400 employees and trim its real-estate holdings.

Apple and IBM report record results, but the stock market doesn't seem impressed, as Goldman Sachs' earnings and the latest housing data fail to inspire. John Shipman, Kathleen Madigan and George Stahl report.
.Wells Fargo fell 2.1% after its fourth-quarter earnings just met expectations, though the bank posted stronger-than-expected revenue. J.P. Morgan Chase fell 2.3%, while Citigroup was off 0.8%.

The market's disappointment suggests that expectations for corporate profits may have climbed too high.

"When you come into earnings season with a big run like the one we've had, expectations are too high. No matter what companies report, it's a disappointment," says Mikel Keifer, investment strategist with Jurika, Mills & Keifer in San Francisco.

Despite weakness in the financial sector, Mr. Keifer said bank earnings offered some encouraging signs for the broader economy.

"Credit seemed pretty decent across the board, with Citigroup and Wells Fargo. It seems credit is improving, and that's a good sign," he said. "If they feel comfortable with their balance sheet and start lending, that will be better for the economy and for the banks themselves."

Materials also lagged behind as commodity prices sagged, with U.S. Steel off 5.9% and AK Steel Holding falling 4.4%. Monsanto was also down 4.6%. Copper fell 1.3%, while crude-oil prices slipped to below $91 a barrel. Gold futures edged up.

Technology stocks were also a drag on the market, with the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite falling 40.49 points, or 1.46%, to 2725.36.

Traders work in the Goldman Sachs both on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange after the Opening Bell Jan. 19.
.Shares of Apple slipped 0.5% in choppy trading after the consumer-electronics company said first-quarter net income jumped to $6 billion, or $6.43 a share from $3.38 billion, or $3.67 a share, for the same period last year. Revenue jumped more than 70% to $26.74 billion on strong holiday sales of the iPhone and iPad. Apple had dropped 2.2% on Tuesday after the company announced Chief Executive Steve Jobs would be taking another medical leave.

On the positive side, International Business Machines was the strongest performer among the Dow components, gaining 3.4% after reporting its strongest quarterly revenue growth in almost a decade, as earnings rose 9.2% and revenue increased 6.6%.

The day's U.S. economic data was mixed. Housing starts fell 4.3% in December to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 529,000 from a downwardly revised 553,000 a month earlier, the Commerce Department reported. Economists had expected overall housing starts to fall only slightly in December to a rate of 554,000. However, building permits, a gauge of future construction, surged 16.7% to an annual rate of 635,000.
.The dollar weakened against both the euro and the yen. The euro was trading at $1.3469, up from $1.3385 late Tuesday in New York. The U.S. Dollar Index, which tracks the currency against a basket of others, fell 0.5%.

Obama y Hu hacen un llamado a la cooperación entre EE.UU. y China

Por Jared A. Favole

.El presidente de China, Hu Jintao, dijo el miércoles que da la bienvenida a empresas estadounidenses a China y enfatizó que ellas recibirán un "trato igualitario".

Hu indicó que el panorama comercial entre China y Estados Unidos es prometedor.

Hu habló rodeado del presidente de Estados Unidos, Barack Obama, el secretario del Departamento del Tesoro, Timothy Geithner y más de una docena de presidentes ejecutivos de empresas estadounidenses y chinas. Entre las firmas representadas estaban Boeing Co., General Electric Co. y Lenovo Group Ltd.

Obama dijo que espera que las empresas de ambos países puedan competir de manera justa, un comentario que probablemente refleja las preocupaciones respecto a las ventajas competitivas que otorga China a sus compañías.

Obama dijo que Estados Unidos debe deshacerse del estereotipo de que China sólo acapara los trabajos de fabricación estadounidenses. China, dijo Obama, es un socio comercial clave de Estados Unidos.

Hu visita a Obama como parte de una visita oficial de estado a la Casa Blanca.

Antes de la reunión con los presidentes ejecutivos, las empresas estadounidenses cerraron acuerdos de exportación por US$45.000 millones con China, según un alto funcionario de la administración de Obama.
