Scott Redler’s Dog Bytes: Nowhere to Hide in Banks

Shares

SPX futures are -50 and we'll see if this ascending channel breaks. Does it stay below 4614 or reclaim it to relieve some pressure? 4582 is support below with major support at 4500. Tech is underperforming and JPM’s action proves you just can't hide in value or banks.

I got out of my banks last Wednesday because I don't hold through earnings - which is a good thing considering how these names are acting after the prints. JEF and JPM got hit on results. GS under pressure this morning. XLF held the $40.34 pivot. See if that holds.

JPM underwhelmed on earnings and had a big gap down with a hole in its chart. Sometimes there is a better entry the week after earnings. See how this handles Friday's low of $156.90 and I'll see patiently if I want to enter again.

GS failed to impress exactly when Wall Street said you had to be long banks. Now they are testing the 200 day. See if GS can hold the $366 area. Otherwise it can go a lot lower.
