Submitted by Van Beek on March 23, 2010 - 04:05Does it make a difference during which week of the month you buy or sell your index funds? At Stock Trend Investing we dived into the data and present you here with our conclusions.
We haven’t just looked at every month during the last 13 years. We have also looked specifically at the months that follow directly an “Up” or “Down” trend expectation from Stock Trend Investing. The results are different for each of the considered cases.
Stock Exchange Trend
Submitted by Van Beek on March 20, 2010 - 04:48The stock exchange trend is the trend in the index of that stock exchange. Each stock exchange has its own index. This is a composite of a number of important stocks that are listed on that stock exchange.
Stock Trend Investing follows the stock exchange trend for a number of important stock exchanges around the world. For the US for example, the NYSE and NASDAQ stock exchanges are covered. But we cover as well as the Dow Jones and S&P 500 indices.
Note that these last two indices are indices that are composites of stocks that are listed on the first two mentioned stock exchanges. However, they are not the index of that stock exchange. We also cover the trends of at least 4 European stock exchanges and 4 Asian stock exchanges.
