(Bloomberg) — Asian stocks rose early Monday as traders sought to take advantage of last week’s selloff while weighing risks from the delta virus strain and China’s regulatory curbs. The dollar was firm. Shares climbed in Japan, South Korea and Australia. U.S. equity futures edged higher after an advance in the S&P 500 and tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 at the end of last week. Beijing’s clampdown on private industries is set to shadow the market open in China and Hong Kong later. The dollar… Source link

Successful market investing is all about finding opportunities, and buying into the right stocks at low prices. The only real ‘trick’ to navigating the market is recognizing those opportunities, since ‘low prices’ is a relative concept, not an absolute. A low price for a famously expensive stock like Amazon will still be in the thousands, while a low price for an obscure penny stock may be less than one dollar. A look at stock charts will help to find companies whose shares are… Source link

Stocks fell Monday, losing some steam after rising to all-time highs late last week. Commodity prices tumbled as concerns over the coronavirus’s spread resurged, with crude oil prices moving sharply to the downside.

DataTrek’s Nicholas Colas hypothesized that the retail investor behavior we’ve seen play out over the past 18 months likely recurred. Searches for “Dow Jones” spiked during Monday’s market dip, Colas pointed out, and a note from Goldman Sachs indicated… Source link

(Bloomberg) — Someday, the post-pandemic equities rally is going to end. When it does it will take a lot of newly christened stock bulls with it. Their refusal to bend has been the signature fact of the stock market for at least 12 months, putting a floor under four other selloffs in 2021 alone that look just like the one that has sheared almost 3% off the S&P 500 Index since Thursday. Whether the devotion of retail investors is enough to turn the tide again is the biggest question in… Source link

(Bloomberg) — European and U.S. equity futures slipped Monday and Asian stocks were steady as investors mulled the outlook for Federal Reserve stimulus support and OPEC+ tension over oil.

(Bloomberg) — The latest steep selloff in commodities markets is a buying opportunity, according to Jeff Currie at Goldman Sachs Group Inc., one of the sector’s biggest bulls. The Bloomberg Commodity Spot Index slumped 3.6% Thursday for its biggest one-day drop in almost 14 months, with soybeans and platinum giving up their gains for the year. The complex has been hit by several bearish factors: the Federal Reserve’s signals on potential interest-rate increases, plus a stronger dollar,… Source link
