| Wesley Chapel, Florida, March 17, 2008 -- With the collapse
of Bear Stearns and the Federal Reserve heavily involved in the banking
business, the question many traders are likely to ask is, “Who’s next?”
Even a fire sale
price of only $2 per share for a stock that was priced at about $170 only a
little over a year ago required a $30 billion guarantee from the Fed before
J.P. Morgan Chase would agree to take over of Bear Stearns over the weekend.
"The fallout from poor hedge fund and subprime mortgage loans has affected
almost every investment bank to some degree or another in the last year so
it’s logical to assume there may be other Bear Stearns situations waiting to
be revealed," said Darrell Jobman analyst for www.TradingEducation.com
One of the banks
mentioned often as being the potential next domino to fall is Lehman
Brothers, whose share price dropped from about $85 in early 2007 to below
$40 Friday and then tumbled to as low as almost $20 Monday. As traumatic as
such a move might be to shareholders, users of VantagePoint Intermarket
Analysis Software who use a 1-2-3 approach to buy puts or otherwise short a
market were well-positioned to take advantage of Lehman’s woes.
VantagePoint,
the flagship software of
Market
Technologies, LLC analyzes interrelated markets to produce
predictive moving averages and other predictive indicators that lead or
confirm traditional chart analysis. The indication to go short Lehman came
on Feb. 29 when three of these indicators came together, as the vertical
line on the chart illustrates: (1) The short-term difference of two moving
averages moved below the long-term difference of two moving averages and
below the zero line, (2) the propriety predicted Neural Index was at 0.00
and (3) the predicted medium-term moving average crossed below the actual
medium-term moving average.
Traders who
followed those three indications from VantagePoint would have been short in
the vicinity of $50 per share. How well that trade will turn out remains to
be seen, but it’s obviously the side of the market many traders would like
to be riding at this point.
