In this week’s video, Mike Cintolo talks about the market’s under-the-surface improvement that he’s seeing; no indicators have changed, which will need to happen for him to extend his line in a big way, but there’s no question most stuff has seen improvement and more stocks are beginning to act properly. Mike did a little buying this week and is hoping to add more should the market be able to build on the recent action.

As for the market, it’s been another dreadful week. Blame it on the Federal Reserve if you want, but whatever the reason, the fact is the sellers remain in control and the trends are pointed down. As we write this, the S&P 500 is down a huge 4.9% this week alone, while the Nasdaq is off 5.5% since last Friday’s close.

During the past couple of weeks, we’ve seen the major indexes hit the skids but most of the resilient, growth-oriented stocks hold up relatively well. This week, though, the script was flipped—the holiday-shortened week saw the major indexes gain 1% (Nasdaq) to 2% (S&P 500), but leading stocks were hit very hard Tuesday and Wednesday.

Last year, after much soul-searching, I decided to trade in my trusty 1998 Toyota Avalon in favor of a smaller, better-for-the-environment car--2009 Toyota Matrix. According to Toyota, the 1998 Avalon gets 19 miles per gallon city and 27 miles per gallon highway, not bad for such a large car. But the Matrix gets 26 miles per gallon city and 32 miles per gallon highway. At the time, there was no such thing as the Cash for Clunkers program that’s available now. My Avalon wouldn’t have been eligible anyway, as it comes in well above the 18 combined mile-per-gallon qualifying mark. Well the program, which is supposed to run from July 1 to November 1, has been such a hit that it has already run out of funding. Congress has just added an additional $2 billion to the nearly depleted $1 billion the program started with.
