‘Death cross’ patterns spread to all corners of the stock market

EconomicCollapse


(NEW YORK)  “Death cross” patterns continue to spread through the stock market like an epidemic, even infecting market segments believed to be more insulated from overseas turmoil.

The Russell 2000 index RUT, -2.28% of small-capitalization stocks became the latest victim among the major market indexes. The index’s 50-day moving average fell to 1,222.95 in midday trade Tuesday, crossing below the 200-day moving average (MA), which slipped to 1,224.11, according to FactSet.
Small-cap stocks can’t hide from the ‘death cross’ virus
Many chart watchers believe a death cross, when the 50-day MA crosses below the 200-day MA, indicates that a shorter-term decline has developed into a longer-term downtrend.
The Russell 2000’s last death cross appeared on Sept. 22, 2014. The index fell another 7.1% in the three weeks after that before bottoming at a one-year low.

That follows the death cross that appeared in the S&P MidCap 400 Index MID, -2.45% on Monday.

Smaller-cap companies tend to have less exposure to international markets than larger-cap companies, so are believed to be more insulated from weakness in overseas markets. For example, the Russell 2000 component with the largest market cap, Anacor Pharmaceuticals ANAC, +0.10% gets 100% of its revenue from the U.S., according to FactSet, while the S&P 500’s largest company, Apple Inc. AAPL, -2.62% gets about 62% of its revenue from overseas.

Since the meltdown in China’s economy and stock market helped spark the volatility in U.S. markets in the last few weeks, the Russell 2000 has outperformed the broader market.

Among the large-cap trackers, the S&P 500 index SPX, -2.22% produced a death cross last Friday, while one appeared in the Dow Jones Industrial Average’s DJIA, -2.21% chart back on Aug. 11.

Apple Inc.’s chart AAPL, -2.62% produced a death cross on Aug. 26.

Many have questioned whether a well-telegraphed moving average crossover is really a bearish signal or not. But at the end of 2008, three months before the market bottomed, all 30 Dow stocks had produced death crosses.

Among other notable indexes in which the bearish pattern has appeared, the Dow Jones Total Stock Market Index DWCF, -2.18% also produced a death cross on Tuesday, the Dow Jones Transportation Average DJT, -1.28% produced one on May 26 and the Dow Jones Utility Average DJU, -1.69% produced one on May 7.
Nasdaq Composite still safe, for 2-3 weeks
Meanwhile, the Nasdaq Composite COMP, -2.08% is two-to-three weeks away from producing a death cross. It could happen a lot sooner, if the market’s selloff gets any worse.

They've been propping up the market for a long time now, it's gonna fall. It has too so we can put the bankers out of business. Their ziojude money system isn't working anymore. Other countries are not using it anymore like they did. They are jumping this Zio train.

Putin is calling for everyone to use anothef currency besides the dollar.  LOL! He pisses the commies off. They want war with Russia because of it.

I listen to a few financial forecasters, they say by the end of the year the dollar is going to crash. Gerald Celente never makes predictions, but this time he says he's certain it will crash atound October. It's gonna hurt us, too. Anything is better than this corporate,  banker owned system we've got now.

Thanks Hollywood, sharing this.

I warn people (including family) to get the Hell out. No one listens. They think the stock market is a rocket ship on its' way to the end of the universe. (shrug) I tried. When this pig gets slaughtered & they all start crying like little girls, I won't pity them.
