Täna kell 15.15 avaldatakse ADP töökohtade hõivatuse muutuse näitaja veebruarikuu kohta. Üldiselt on tegu olnud hea 'eelvaatega' reedel avaldatavasse veebruarikuu tööjõuraportisse. ADP'lt oodatakse ca -20 000list näitu. Kell 17.00 avaldatakse veebruarikuu ISM teenindusindeksi näit (ootus 51.0, mis oleks pisut parem kui jaanuaris), kell 17.30 naftavarude raport ning kell 21.00 Föderaalreservi Beeži raamatu sisu.

FTSE suhtelise tugevuse taga on UK PMI näit:
Activity in Britain's dominant services sector expanded at a stronger-than-expected pace in February, according to purchasing managers. The CIPS/Markit purchasing managers index rose to 58.4 for the month, up from 54.5 in January and topping forecasts for a more modest increase to 55.5. A reading of more than 50 means a majority of managers saw a rise in activity, while a figure of less than 50 signals contraction. The services sector accounts for more than 75% of British economic activity. The British pound rebounded after the data to trade at $1.5049 versus the dollar up 0.6% on the day. -

BIDU näitab tänasel eelturul kerget nõrkust, kuigi -1.5% võib olla ka kõikumine üldise fooni taustal. Kuna valuatsioon on juba nii kõrge, siis mul tundub, et turg tõlgendab igasugust posiitivset uudist teemal GOOG+Hiina automaatselt BIDU kahjuks. Näiteks see:
China Unicom to sell Android phones despite spat
Võib-olla GOOG ei kavatsegi Hiina turult ära minna ja võib-olla peab BIDU tulevikus siiski tugeva konkurentsiga arvestama. Sellised kõhklused on sellise valuatsiooni juures kerged tulema. -
Kui BIDU tehnilist pilti vaadata, siis siit võiks tulla kergelt alla. Konsolideerumist eriti ei usu.

Morgan Stanley soovitab aktsiate ostmisega hetkel ettevaatlik olla:
“Fundamental headwinds remain from policymakers shifting to tightening mode, moderating growth prospects and higher uncertainty generally (including sovereign concerns). We would like to wait for more clarity on these issues e.g. an easing in Asian inflation fears, a change in Fed language being out of the way and some re-basing in growth expectations. We will keep in mind the key 1994/2004 levels on growth indicators such as negative readings on the ECRI and earnings revisions or a 10-15 point correction in ISM new orders.”
MSi hinnangul tasub sellel aastal liikumist võrrelda 1994 ja 2004. aastaga:

Nagu siin börsipäevas oleme ka korduvalt rõhutanud, siis on viimased majanduslangused taastunud selliselt, kus pikalt pole töökohti suudetud luua, kuigi majandus kasvab. See tekitab pidavalt uue majanduslanguse spekulatsioone, mis muudab turud aeg-ajalt närviliseks.

Note Market Direction, but Also Look Further

Eschew the monumental. Shun the epic. All the guys who can paint great big pictures can paint great small ones.
-- Ernest Hemmingway
When I first started trading, I paid little attention to overall market direction. I focused on individual stock-picking and didn't much care what the major indices were doing. Even when the market was moving against me, I could still do quite well if I was in the right stocks.
Over time I came to realize that I could enhance my returns if my level of aggressiveness was correlated with the market trend. Generally about 80% of stocks will move in the same direction of the overall market, so obviously it's going to be tougher to make money if you fight the trend.
The problem is that you miss out on opportunities if you focus too much on overall market direction. There are two issues here. The most dangerous is that if you are wrong about market direction you will have needlessly sold stocks that may have done nothing wrong. If you are too black-and-white about being bearish and bullish based on the overall indices, you are going to find yourself very poorly positioned quite often.
The second problem is that the overall indices often cover up strong themes and sectors that are working well. As Jim Cramer says, there is always a bull market somewhere. At times there may not be much of one, but at other times you can have some great-performing stocks when the indices don't look so great.
I bring this up because it is so easy to be caught up in labels like "bullish" and "bearish." Even if we are quite pessimistic about market direction we can still be holding long positions and vice versa. Good trading isn't just about having one opinion about the overall market; it is about managing a number of individual positions within the context of a shifting environment. You don't want to be blind to overall market direction, because it is going to have a large impact on what your stocks do, but you don't want to be so slavish to it that you are holding nothing when you are negative about the indices.
I take gains into strength, and that helps me navigate the market. I automatically become less bullish the more extended the market becomes. If I keep finding good individual charts I will add them and still have long positions even as I grow more concerned about a shift in market direction.
It is very convenient to use labels like "bullish" and "bearish," but it is a very poor trading methodology. I've been concerned that the market is becoming extended and vulnerable for a reversal soon, but if I just sold everything and started loading up on shorts I would have missed out on the gains in stocks that are acting well. On the other hand, if I keep loading up with no regard for the dangers of a reversal, I'll cost myself a very big chunk of recent profits.
We have a fairly flat open on the way, but we are extended and the risks of a reversal are increasing. I still have some long positions but they are shrinking fast as I lock in gains when I have them.

Alari, miks just nüüd peaks BIDU allapoole tulema? Et "tõustud küll" tees või on mingi konkreetne katalüsaator?
-
Tehnilise pildi järgi üleostetud, kui sinna lisada UBS dg peaks põhjust olema aga turg väga roosiline ja see hinda toetamas. Valuatsioon tundub ka ikka väga kõrge, kuid ega rohkem katalüsaatoried kui aprilli tulemused ei paista. Vahepeal toimus GOOG raha voolamine BIDU-sse, millest esimene on hetkel jalad alla saanud.
