3 FTSE 100 Stocks That Should Be Avoided In August -

  • Next. "The City certainly expects Next to remain under pressure for some time yet, and predicts earnings dips of 9% and 2% in the years to January 2018 and 2019 respectively. Despite its low forward P/E ratio of 9.9 times, I reckon the firm remains an unattractive selection given the strong chances of these numbers receiving biting downgrades in the months ahead."
  • Kingfisher. "City analysts expect Kingfisher to endure a 4% earnings drop in the 12 months ending January 2018 as sales trend lower in both of its major markets. And while a 15% bottom-line rebound is predicted for fiscal 2019, I would consider this a challenging target. I believe Kingfisher should be avoided in spite of its undemanding forward P/E ratio of 12.6 times."
  • Royal Bank of Scotland. "When you also throw in the prospect of crushing financial penalties from across the Atlantic, as well as the possibility of rising revenues trouble (reflecting both a flailing economy and aggressive asset shedding), I reckon RBS is a poor stock pick irrespective of its low forward earnings multiple of 11.9 times."

General Electric’s stock price - weekly bearish breakdown; daily rally to the bullsh reversal (based on the article)

The price on the weekly chart is on bearish breakdown: price broke Ichimoku cloud to below for the reversal from the primary bullish to the primaru bearish market condition. 

By the way, the daily price is on the secondary rally to be started with nearly to be reversed to the bullosh so if this tendency will remain - we may see the global bullish reversal for this stock price for example.


  • "General Electric’s (NYSE: GE) stock price fell nearly 20% in the last three months due to management changes and concerns over profitability. The Baker Hughes acquisition also played a role in the decline, as many investors had issues with the idea of increasing the company’s exposure to the oil industry given the volatility in oil prices. Additionally, downgrades by JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank also influenced investors to some extent. However, we believe that GE is currently udervalued and should bounce back despite the concerns we discussed above. The strong growth in GE’s aviation, power, and renewable energy businesses is likely to continue due to growing demand and international expansion. GE’s margins are also generally higher than its peers, and the company continues to work on cost-cutting measures. Additionally, GE will benefit from its investments in the industrial internet of things."
  • "GE’s stock price fell from nearly $31 to $24 in around three months. The stock started to decline after GE’s CEO Jeff Immelt announced that he was stepping down effective August 1 after nearly 16 years as the company’s CEO. GE agreed to buy Baker Hughes last year, and investors had hoped that oil prices would bounce back after the OPEC deal to cap production. However, crude oil prices did not increase even 6 months after the OPEC deal. As GE’s dependence on the oil industry has increased with the completion of the Baker Hughes deal, investors have expressed concern due to the continued weakness in the oil industry. Additionally, analysts from JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank lowered their ratings on GE’s stock recently, stating that the company’s fundamentals are worse than they expected and that GE could cut its dividends going forward."
  • "We believe that GE’s stock is unlikely to tank much further, as the market has already priced in the abovementioned factors."

Caterpillar, Amazon, Alphabet, and Microsoft - so far his quarter, 74% of all companies reporting have beaten their expectations (based on the article)

Caterpillar share price is on strong bullish breakout since the April this year for 139.87 resistance level to be crossing for the bullish trend to be continuing. 


  • "The stocks to own this past week were Caterpillar, Amazon, Alphabet, and Microsoft because they shocked the market with surprisingly robust double-digit gains in revenues and earnings per share. In a bull market, it showed that investors could still be surprised by performances that were totally unexpected. It appears that Wall Street didn’t reckon either on revenues gained in Asia or the global surge in the purchase of electronic equipment like mobile phones. It’s also testament to the companies’ tight-fisted signals to Wall Street that so many investors could be surprised so pleasantly. So far his quarter, 74% of all companies reporting have beaten their expectations."
  • "This evidence of the dynamic quality of the technological revolution that is sweeping the world in a fashion that cannot be predicted by Wall Street. The hunger for the hardware to communicate means Apple, Facebook and other companies like Intel will also be the beneficiaries of the communications revolution. Consider this: Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft and Intel increased revenues by $19 billion and profits by $2 billion in just one year’s time, according to Market Watch."

Wall Street (Dow Jones) Prediction 2018

radha00027, 2018.01.04 08:45

2017 turned out to be a pretty banner year for investors and America as an entire. The U.S. stock market indexes all hit dozens of new all-time highs, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average setting a record for the most record closes hit in a single year. It's safe the say the memories of the Great Recession have been put to bed for good. The U.S. economy hummed along, despite the Federal Reserve increasing interest rates on three separate occasions. GDP growth in the third quarter came in at a very healthy 3.2% ahead of the holiday season, and the U.S. unemployment rate of 4.1% as of Nov. 2017 is the lowest it's been since December of 2000.

The U.S. stock market will experience in 2018 its first correction in over two years. 2017 was one of the most extraordinary years in the history of the stock market. It's essentially been two years since the stock market progressed lower by at least 10%. My suspicion is that'll change in 2018. Since 1950, the S&P 500 has had 35 corrections that, when rounded to the nearest whole number, were 10% or greater, according to Yardeni Research. Though the stock market doesn't care about the possibility, history says we're due.

The U.S. stock markets' annual winning streak will come to a modest end. The stock market has been on a relative tear now for nine consecutive years. This writer doesn't believe it'll extend to a 10th year. Long-term buy-and-hold mogul Warren Buffett often suggests that investors "be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful." Right now, things look a little too perfect, and there's very little pessimism to be found on Wall Street. That looks to be the perfect means for a disappointing year for the broader market if Buffett's analysis is correct.
