Amazon beefs Up For Q4, Are You Buying?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Amazon(NASDAQ:AMZN), the world's largest online retailer just announced that is hiring 70,000 new employees for Q4 and I see this as a big positive for this stock. I have been positive on Amazon for some time now, but I see this fourth-quarter as being a potential (knock it out of the park) quarter for this company.

I recently purchased some bicycle parts from Amazon, and as usual Amazon delivered, as promised, on time, and the parts were perfect. I'm not sure how it is with your friends and family, but it seems that all of my family and friends order from Amazon.

Millions of people purchase from Amazon(NASDAQ:AMZN) over the course of the year, and that trend isn't likely to slow down anytime soon unless there is a major Black Swan catastrophe. Why do so many of us love doing business with Amazon? My belief is because Amazon, like Apple makes it so easy to enjoy their products and services.

Okay, now let's take a look at the chart and the technical picture for Amazon(NASDAQ:AMZN). The most important technical element is that all of the Trade Triangles are in a positive mode, indicating higher prices to come.

Now let's take a look at what has happened in the recent past. There is an old Hungarian proverb, "The past is the teacher of the future". Looking back, you can see that Amazon made an important cyclic low back in the Nov/ Dec period last year. From that cyclic low of $219, the market rallied to reach a high of $284, which represents a $65 swing from low to high (see first orange arrow on the chart).

Government Shutdown Imminent - Here's My Take

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for the last day of the month and quarter, Monday the 30th of September.

It's hard to know where to begin, so let's begin at the beginning. I think we should throw all the Republicans and Democrats out of office - they are absolutely not helping America move forward and get back on its feet again.

What is happening now in Washington is a childish squabble between two completely different ideologies without any grown ups in the room.

I believe that both parties have lost sight of the big picture, and that's making America strong economically. That means creating jobs, putting people back to work and to live within our means. If we can't afford it, we can't afford it - end of story.

These simple concepts seem to be beyond the grasp of the two parties and the last thing on either parties mind. It's all about, whats in it for me, and I want to keep my position of power and job come h@ll or high water. Continue reading "Government Shutdown Imminent - Here's My Take" →

Is Wal-Mart in trouble?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE:WMT) is the largest retailer in the world, and if they are have problems, then we really have to examine and be concerned about what is really happening to the economy.

Yesterday, it was reported that Wal-Mart stores were cutting back on U.S. orders amid an inventory backlog. It was later denied by David Tovar a spokesperson for Wal-Mart. However, true or false it managed to push the stock of Wal-Mart down over 2% on the day.

That is a fundamental viewpoint. What is interesting technically about Wal-Mart is the fact that it recently broke below a 25 month trend line.Trend lines are enormously important for determining the momentum and trends of stocks, commodities, and any number of items that can be charted. In order to be a valid trend line, it must touch three points along the line to be truly meaningful. The longer the time frame, the more meaningful and powerful the trend line becomes. A two year trend line like Wal-Mart recently broke thru to the downside is significant and should not be ignored.

Is The Market Slide Over?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Tuesday, the 24th of September.

The four day slide in the DOW (INDEX:DJI) pulled this index back to a perfect 30.2% Fibonacci retracement, where the market found support. With our long and intermediate term Trade Triangles in a positive mode, I am looking for this and the other market indices to resume their upward trend. The headwinds are of course, funding of the federal government, tapering, Syria and Muslim extremism. Any of those events could spook the markets in the month of October.

Today, President Obama is speaking at the United Nations (now there is a misnomer). I'm not sure what that's going to do, as the UN has been a largely ineffective organization since its inception on 24th of October, 1945. The U.S., thanks to your tax dollars, funds 22% of the UN, China 5.15%, and Russia 2.5%.

Gold continues to struggle and the question is, is gold close to a major bottom? I will be examining gold, plus reporting on the following stocks in today's video report.

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL)
Facebook (NASDAQ:FB)
Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX)
Pandora Media (NYSE:P)
Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA)

If you would like to leave a comment on anything I have discussed in today's video, we would love to get your feedback.

Have a great trading day,
