Stocks are higher on ideas that the worst of the banking crisis is passing.Comments by B. of A. that they were profitable for the first two months of the year helped. China Premier Wen Jiabao said that China could throw more stimulus money into their economy “at any time” was supportive. He also said that China is “worried” about its holdings of US Treasuries and wants assurances its investments are safe.Given the shenanigans in Washington, I’m not surprised that they’re worried, but we’re still the safest game in town.The US trade deficit shrank more than expected. A big factor in the drop was crude oil-we imported less, and the price was lower.The lower deficit isn’t all a good thing, as it shows lower international trade flows.
I think the markets are at an inflection point. Stocks are on their fourth day higher, and many markets have had bullish MACD crossovers. Further upside could cement some short term bottoms for many markets.
June S&P: Bullish MACD crossover. 1162 is resistance.
