The new year is off to a good start, with many of the areas that took lumps during December (namely the broad market and growth stocks) showing strength through three days—and, just as important to us, many individual stocks have perked up, with some resilient names pushing to new highs and others that dipped to support bouncing. That’s a good thing, but we’re also keeping in mind the fact that early January is often tricky (lots of sharp moves in both directions), that the intermediate-term trend of most indexes and measures is still neutral-to-negative and that there remain lots of crosscurrents among individual stocks, with some selling off while others strengthen. As we wrote above, we are encouraged and will nudge our Market Monitor up to a level 6, but, while this is a good first step, we want to see the action continue to conclude that the December air pockets are a thing of the past.

For the third straight issue, this week’s list is heavy on growth stocks, which remains a sign that big investors aren’t hunting for safety.

Current Market Outlook


After weeks of banging on resistance, the major indexes lurched above some key levels last week, and many individual stocks did the same. To be fair, “breakouts” in indexes are notoriously unreliable, which is why we put more emphasis on the overall trend (choppy, but still positive) and the action of leading stocks (improving, though earnings season continues to have its say). Thus, while last week wasn’t a major buy signal, the weight of the evidence tells us to push our Market Monitor up a notch into bullish territory and continue to look for new leadership to emerge in the weeks ahead.

This week’s list has a wide variety of stocks, but for our Top Pick, we’re going with the mega-cap stock that just gapped up on earnings—Amazon’s (AMZN) surge last week pushed it out of a 15-month base as investors see huge potential for the firm’s cloud computing division.

A few days ago, I was poking around on Amazon’s website, mainly to see what features of that site Cabot could emulate when we redo our website later this year, when I stumbled on a bunch of Amazon Dash Buttons. I was confused. What is a Dash Button? What does it do? Why should I click on it?
