3 May 2024 – List of LIQUID STOCKS and WHICH STOCKS IN WHICH INDEX? are now completed for April 2024

Every month, after the end of trading for the month, I update two key sets of information in the Share Market Toolbox and they are now available:- Stock Liquidity, and Which Stocks in Which Index:

1. Stock LIQUIDITY – Out of the 2000+ stocks on the Aussie market, only about 600 to 800 of them trade at least 50 times per day on average. Many traders and investors are not comfortable dealing in stocks that trade less then 50 times per day, because it would worsen the chance of selling the stock quickly if you need to (another measure is the total value traded per day, but not considered here). See more details and my updated list of Liquid Stocks. (Note that other metrics should also be considered before trading, including: daily value traded per stock).
2. Which stocks are in which index? – Exactly which stocks are currently in which of the ten major Australian share market indexes? See my freshly updated list in the Toolbox.

6 April 2024 – Weekly Watch List now complete and uploaded

Every week I run a market scan across the 200 stocks of the S&P/ASX 200 (XJO) index, and use specific criteria to arrive at a shortened list of stocks, with a Score allocated to each stock. After some delays earlier today, this week’s WWL is now complete and available for my Share Market Toolbox Members.

Members can follow the public links to see the latest WWL in the usual place.

6 April 2024 – Weekly Market Analysis Charts – now complete for the week ending 5 April

Every Friday night / Saturday morning I do an analysis of the Australian share market, focusing on the All Ordinaries (XAO) index, and I usually publish the charts, and complete and send the Weekly Analysis email to clients, by lunchtime Saturday. But there were delays today, and the updated charts are now available, with the Weekly Watch List (WWL) coming shortly.

Toolbox members can see the latest charts here, while non-members can see the public access charts here.

6 January 2024 – Santa Rally? Did we or didn’t we?

Every year there is some discussion in the news media about a possible Santa Rally around Christmas time. Don’t forget that there are basically two definitions for the so-called Santa Rally. The first one is according to Yale Hirsch who first wrote about this in 1972 – read more about that in my Toolbox here.

Santa Rally 2023?

The second definition for a Santa rally, or Christmas Rally, is very loose, and many commentators will refer to any share market rally in November or December as a Santa rally.

Whichever definition we use, was there a Santa rally in the Australian share market in the Christmas of 2023?See more charts and read more details on my Santa Rally page in my Share Market Toolbox here. And my Share Market Toolbox Members can see more detailed and larger versions of the one above.
