U.S. stock index futures hit a down trading limit for the second time this week on Thursday, after President Donald Trump suspended travel from Europe, but failed to convince markets he could contain the economic damage from the coronavirus pandemic.
Plan A : Remain short as long as market stays below 21225. Targets are 21190, 21150 and 21105.
Plan B : Cut above 21260.
Plan C : Attempt to long only if market stays firm above 21005. Targets are 21040, 21080 and 21125.
Plan D : Cut below 20970.
U.S. stock futures were volatile in early morning trading, after the major averages on Thursday suffered their worst sessions since the “Black Monday” market crash in 1987.
As of 3:19 a.m. ET Friday, futures on the Dow were up 580 points, implying an opening gain of 467.38. points for the index. S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq-100 futures also turned around, pointing to opening gains for the indexes.
Earlier in the session, Dow futures had indicated an opening loss of 700 points at the lows.
The overnight action followed the official end of the record-long bull market run. The S&P 500 plummeted 9.5% in its worst day in more than three decades Thursday, joining the Dow in a bear market, or more than 20% from its recent peak. The Dow also suffered its worst point drop ever and the biggest percentage decline since 1987.
The market’s historic drop on Thursday indicated that investors believe the government’s fiscal plans and the Federal Reserve’s ramped-up funding actions wouldn’t be sufficient to offset the economic impact from the coronavirus.
Plan A : Long if market supported firm above 2547.25. Targets are 2565.25, 2578.50, 2590.25.
Plan B : Short if market failed to support above 2547.25. Targets are 2525.25, 2510.50 and 2497.25.
President Donald Trump’s Europe travel ban, announced late on Wednesday, sent all three major US stock indexes into a tailspin, with the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq confirming their first bear market since the financial crisis.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 2,352.6 points, or 9.99 percent, to 21,200.62, the S&P 500 lost 260.74 points, or 9.51 percent, to 2,480.64 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 750.25 points, or 9.43 per cent, to 7,201.80. The S&P 500 Energy index lost 12.3 percent.
All 11 major sectors of the S&P 500 closed sharply lower. The blue chip Dow suffered its worst one-day loss since Oct 1987’s “Black Monday.”
The benchmark S&P 500 and the Nasdaq have lost over a quarter of their value since reaching record closing highs just 16 sessions ago, as nations around the world grapple with how to contain the fast-moving coronavirus and its economic effects.
A bear market is confirmed when an index sinks 20 percent or more below its most recent closing high.
Plan A : Long if market supported firm above 7538.25. Targets are 7578.25, 7602.25 and 7630.25.
Plan B : Short if market failed to support above 7538.25. Targets are 7498.25, 7469.25 and 7439.75.
