    By Price Headley: The good news is, a big rebound on Friday – following Thursday's drubbing – pulled the market back into the black for the week. The bad news is, the market still hasn't cleared any of the major hurdles it needs to in order for us to say the bulls are home-free. And now we're down sharply in the pre-trading from guess what, more Europe worries/news. There are a ton of economic catalysts this week that may well do the bullish reversal trick (many more than last week, to be sure). Of course, those same catalysts could end up working against the market as well, if viewed in a pessimistic light. As usual we're going to weigh it all below.

    • JPM Head Quant Warns Second Market Crash May Be Imminent: Violent Selling Could Return On Thursday

      Last Friday, when the market was down only 2%, we presented our readers with a note which promptly became the most read piece across Wall Street trading desks, which was written by JPM's head quant Marko Kolanovic, who correctly calculated the option gamma hedging imbalance into the close, and just as correctly predicted the closing dump on Friday which according to many catalyzed Monday's "limit down" open.

    • Key Events In The Coming Week Topped With Yellen's Friday Speech

      As the economic calendar slowly picks up following the NFP lull, we are looking at a busy week both globally and in the US, where an army of Fed speakers culminates with a Yellen speech on Friday at 1pm in Rhode Island. As DB notes, the start to the week is rather quiet with just May NAHB housing market index in the US.

    • ‘Red’ Is The New ‘Black’ In Saudi Arabia

      This post ‘Red’ Is The New ‘Black’ In Saudi Arabia appeared first on Daily Reckoning. What a weekend! Thanksgiving, huh? Could’ve fooled me. On Friday — “Black Friday” for shoppers — oil prices fell to four year-lows, unseen since the post-crash recovery days of 2010. Meanwhile, in trading pits across the globe, panic prevailed and red ink (or “blood,” if the analogy suits you) flowed. For oil, it seems, red is the new black.

      Some weeks feature a contrast between past and future — a possible inflection point. Here are the current elements:

    • Market Outlook - Jumping Hurdles

      By Price Headley: Despite last Monday's decimation and Tuesday's and Wednesday's go-nowhere sessions, a strong Thursday and Friday meant the market managed to make a gain last week. In fact, last week's bar (in its entirety) has many of the tell-tale signs of a bullish reversal. So are these bullish clues telling us our current situation is going to lead to bullishness? Not quite yet - there's one more hurdle to clear before we can safely say the uptrend is "on" again.

    • Key Events In The Coming Very Busy Week

      With a full slate of central bank meetings, data (including payrolls Friday) and earnings next week there’s a little bit for everyone. On Thursday, according to Politico, we will also know who the next Fed Chair is as well as get a first look at a version of the House tax bill in the US, perhaps on Wednesday.

      By Jarred Cummans:Today marked the end of a tumultuous week that saw high volumes accompanied by high volatility. The week saw poor trading days until Thursday came, when all hell broke loose. A massive sell off led to losses of more than 3% in most major benchmarks, as investors hit the panic button in reaction to Fed Chair Ben Bernanke’s speech and policy decisions.

      By Price Headley: We knew we were due for a dip after the heroic rally three weeks ago; last week we got it. Still, it wasn't enough to snap the overall uptrend, nor the spirits of the bulls … traders ended things on Friday in a buying mood, not wanting to head into the weekend empty-handed in case the budget crisis was resolved and/or Europe doesn't fall into the ocean.
