Why is a 200-day moving average so important? Instead of looking at daily swings, investors can look at this. Long-term investors should look at the 200-day. Intermediate ones, the 50-day. Short-term ones, the 20-day. The markets have traded below the 200-day, which means upward resistance. If this stretches too far above or below means the price could mean-reverts, which spells opportunity, as in January 2018 when the average shot up, then suddenly corrected. Recently, we could be seeing a trend of lower-lows and -highs. Watch the 200-day closely, because if it doesn't break above that, we could see pain ahead.

Seasonally, it's a summer play: July 27-Nov.8 is the best time. And that happened this year. It had a parabolic run this year, and that is unsustainable. It's attractive now after a recent correction. Outperforming most oil stocks.

Had a parabolic trend earlier this year, which means it's unsustainable--which is what happened this fall. It sold off after its latest product launches. Since then, it's seen a parabolic trend lower, which is also unsustainable. It should be forming a bottom soon. Seasonally, it's June 12-Sept.24. Q4 is good for tech stocks.

Seasonally, it does well Jan. 7- May 21, outperforming the market. Since 2016, it's been in a trading range topping at $46, but there's no sign it will break above that soon--the same goes with all the grocers. This sector should pick up this time of year. These cyclicals are around the bottom now.

It does better in the springtime before summer driving season. This year's it's seen lower-lows and -highs. It's below its 200-day moving average. Oil price has plunged. Can CFW benefit from current $53 oil?

Pipelines are defensive and their seasonality is summer, June 8-August 31. Since 2017, IPL has been in a declining trend. At least you collect a 7.6% dividend.

The 200-day chart of the S&P 500 We're beyond the high-growth phase in the economy and now in a moderating phase. There are still higher-highs and -lows, but momentum is flagging. We're not facing a recession tomrorow, but we are definitely in the late stage of the economy.
