5 Key Stock Market Signals for u



as we all know, economic crsis affects us seriously
during this uncertain time, many ppl are searching for guidance on what might come next
not only investors, but also business leaders..
so that there r several key signals that traders, strategists, and fund managers
typically watch closely in times of uncertainty
Given the unprecedented environment, its not clear if any will be a reliable guide this time,
but these signals do give investors something to monitor for clues to the road ahead
today, i would like to share 5 signals to all of u, they r
1.Technical Signals
2.Reports from Washington
3. Price-Earnings Ratios
4. Dividend Yields
5. The Federal Reserve


Technical Signals -
Technical strategists analyze and predict market activity based on previous market moves
Reports from Washington-
news from Washington is rattling investors
y? haha i think u must know!
Price-earining ratio (PE ratio)-
i think this part everyone who hv attented finance
must know wt is it, but i m chuffed to share wif u
so its a measure of the price paid for a share relative to
the annual income or profit earned by the firm per share
A higher P/E ratio means that investors are paying more for each unit of income
so heres the formula,
Price per share

PE ratio = -----------------------------------------
Annual earnings per share

Dividend Yields-
another fundamental measure for investors is the amount that companies pay to shareholders in dividends
as stocks have fallen, the dividend yield on stocks has jumped
a key comparison is wif the yield on the 10-year Treasury note
for the last 51 years the dividend yield on stocks has been lower than the yield on 10-year Treasuries
but that has changed, wif the 10-year's yield barely above 3%,
equities actually pay more than safe government bonds!!
The Federal Reserve-
over the past decades, investors hv learned that falling interest rates
eventually stimulate the economy and the stock mkt
so its hard to ignore the Federal Reserve, which is expected to lower rates again when it meets in December
so these 5 signals can help u n make u more clearly for investment?
haha hope my sharing can help u guys=]
