August 18, 2011 – Wednes day’s highs st rad dled Dow 11,491 and SPX 1210.7.

How I use my proprietary analytics to judge the risk / reward for the major equity averages. At

the end of 2010 and based upon the past nine annual closes the major equity averages began2011 straddling new annual pivots at 11,491 Dow Industrials, 1210.7 SPX, 2335 NASDAQ, 5179Dow Transports and 784.16 Russell 2000. The 2010 closes were just below the levels onTransports and Russell, and above on the other three. Weekly closes above the levels forTransports and Russell signaled early-year strength. I did not like the markets because of aValuEngine Valuation Warning on February 18th and a ValuEngine Valuation Watch on May 2nd.Then in July the Transports reached a new all time high and the Industrials did not follow. Bydefinition annual pivots are magnets and this year the force was to pull the markets lower. TheTransports led stocks lower as the August 1st close was below 5179. On August 2nd the Russel2000 closed below 784.16. On August 4th the Industrials and SPX closed below 11,491 and1210.7. This cascade action indicated risk to 2335 on NASDAQ, which held on August 9 th. You

can clearly see why it’s important for the Dow and SPX to close back above 11,491 and 1210.7.10-Year Note – (2.163) Semiannual, weekly, annual and quarterly value levels are 2.414, 2.576, 2.690and 3.053 with the Dec 2008 low at 2.016, and daily and semiannual risky levels at 1.910 and 1.672.

Equity Fundamentals – Stocks are cheap, but not as cheap as in March 2009.• 82.4% of all stocks are undervalued / 17.6% of all stocks are overvalued. In March 2009, 91.1%

of all stocks were undervalued.• All sixteen sectors are undervalued, fifteen by double-digit percentages. Back in March 2009

the sectors were undervalued by 33% to 45%. Six sectors are undervalued by more than 20% -find out which ones at www.ValuEngine.com.

Another market negative is the formation of the “Death Cross”: This occurs when the 50-daysimple moving average declines below the 200-day with both declining. In the bull market these weresupports. In the bear market these are resistances. The first “Death Cross” came in the SOX on July15th. The S&P 500, NASDAQ and Russell 2000 had their death crosses last Friday. The Transportshad a death cross on Monday. The Dow Industrial Average has not had its death cross yet as the50-day and 200-day simple moving averages are 12,074 and 11,996.
