US Stocks Watchlist

Finding stocks with the best potential can be difficult. For many years now I've created the US Stocks Watchlist to try and find the stocks that meet the Stage Analysis method criteria and that are near to potential entry points in the coming days, weeks or months. i.e they may be in late Stage 1 developing a Wyckoff Spring or breaking out in early Stage 2 on strong relative volume, or tightening up with Volatility Contraction Pattern (VCP) characteristics in a re-accumulation base after having a strong Stage 2 advance.

Disclaimer: This is not a stock alerts service. We won’t tell you what stocks to buy or sell. But if you follow the watchlist it may give you ideas for your own trades and save you countless hours, by giving you a more refined starting point for your own stock research.

Stock Market Update and US Stocks Watchlist – 23 August 2022

The major indexes, i.e. the S&P 500, Nasdaq, Russell 2000 etc, all continued to pullback today with a weak failed attempt to regain the 21 day EMA and then poor close near the bottom of the daily candle. So all had a second daily close below the 21 day EMA and the short-term market breadth indicators, such as the S&P 500 percentage of stocks above their 20 day EMA (which can be seen in the top chart), continued lower also and closed at 38.60%.

Stock Market Update and US Stocks Watchlist – 16 August 2022

With the S&P 500 testing the 200 day MA today and Dow Industrials closing above it, the IBD Industry Group Bullish Percent Index has moved above the 60% level, which is the level that I use to determine the Stage 2 zone. 60%+ is considered in the Stage 2 zone. So although the majority of the major market indexes are only in Stage 1, the Industry Group Bullish Percent breadth data is moving into a tentative Stage 2 zone position...

Semiconductors was the dominant theme in the weekend scans, with multiple stocks in the group recovering strongly from weakness caused by the NVDA pre-earnings release early in the week. I did an in-focus on the Semiconductors group in the US Stocks Industry Groups Relative Strength Rankings post on Friday evening, including some market breadth data on the group. So take a look at that if you haven't already.
