WEEKLY UPDATE - MARKETS SELL-OFF ON ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTY

In a week of conflicting economic news, and the words “double-dip recession” on the lips of at least a few experts, investors felt sufficiently spooked to chuck shares of many of the equity issues they still held, sending North American stock indices sharply downward.

The S&P TSX Composite Index closed out a rough week at 11,528.55, a week in which it tumbled 271.72 points or 2.3% of its strength. Its smaller-cap cousin, the TSX Venture Exchange faired a bit better and ended Friday’s trading at 1457.05, a downturn of 8.43 points or 0.6% over the week before.

In New York, the Dow Jones industrial average dipped to 10,303.15, falling a total of 350.45 points, or 3.4%, on the week. The S&P 500 index moved lower 42.39 or 3.9% on the week to 1,079.25. The tech-rich Nasdaq composite index dropped 114.99 points or 5.1% to 2,173.48.

In economic news, Statistics Canada’s New Housing Price Index rose 0.1% in June, after advancing 0.3% in the previous month. On a yearly basis, the index was up 3.3% in June following a 2.9% increase in May.

Investors in the States were disappointed Tuesday by a report showing business productivity unexpectedly fell 0.9% in the second quarter, marking the first decline in 18 months. Economists expected growth to slow to 0.1%.

Wednesday, Statistics Canada said the nation's trade deficit with the rest of the world widened to $1.1 billion in June from $695 million in May. Economists were looking for the trade deficit to narrow to $300 million from the deficit of $503 initially reported in May. The U.S. trade balance rose to $49.9 billion U.S. in June, although economists expected the balance to have narrowed to $42.2 billion U.S., from $42.3 billion U.S. in May.

Thursday, it was learned that import prices in the States jumped 0.2% in July from the prior month, and were up 4.9% from a year earlier.

On Friday, Statistics Canada said new motor vehicle sales rose 2.5% to 130,135 units in June, largely helped by higher truck sales.

Stateside, July retail sales rose 0.4%, slightly less than expected. Also Friday, the U.S. Consumer Price Index, a key measure of inflation, snapped a three-month streak of declines and ticked up 0.3%.

The economic calendar for the coming week features Canada’s international trade in securities and the manufacturing survey on Tuesday, Employment Insurance figures on Wednesday, leading indicators and wholesale trade Thursday, with Consumer Price Index figures rolling in on Friday.

In the States, Tuesday is a crowded day with housing and building permits unveiled, along with the Producer Price Index (measuring wholesale inflation) and industrial production. On Thursday, look for leading indicators from the U.S. and weekly initial jobless claims.

Among small-cap issues we spotlighted this week, PharmaGap Inc. (TSX-Venture:GAP) began the week at 18 cents, surged as high as 19 before misfortune set in, causing the stock to lose 2.5 cents or 13.9%, at 15.5 cents.

Miner AM Gold (TSX-Venture:AMG) fared slightly better, jumping to a high of 34.5 cents from its original perch of 30.5 cents, but settling at 32 cents on Friday, for a weekly gain of 1.5 cents of 4.9%.

American drug company Hana Biosciences Inc. (OTCBB:HNAB) dipped a penny to 14 cents, or 6.7%, after leaping as high as 16.35 cents intraday, while rival Intellect Neurosciences Inc. (OTCBB:ILNS) eked out a gain of one-10th of a cent or 4.1% to 2.55 cents, this after peaking at 3.1 cents during the week.

If you’d invested in all four stocks and held to the end of the week, you’d have experienced an average loss of 2.9%, largely the same declines as seen by the broader markets. However, if you’d sold each at its peak, you’d have seen a gain of 13.6% on average.

Next week, look for great things from Canadian miner Adriana Resources Inc. (TSX-Venture:ADI) and financial services up-and-comer Dacha Capital Inc. (TSX-Venture:DAC). In the U.S., energy company Genoil Inc. (OTCBB:GNOLF) looks promising, as does tech whiz Beacon Enterprise Solutions Group Inc. (OTCBB:BEAC).

Lastly, we have been receiving requests to add more technical insight into the video charts that we prepare each week. The old format discussed support and reistance levels and possible future price movements. With the feedback received, we have prepared a new video chart format, which we believe has a lot more focus and is much more detailed. The new format discusses various technical analysis patterns, if any are visible. It discusses many of the most well known technical indicators such as the MACD, RSI, ADX and many more and interprets the significance of each of these indicators and what they are showing for each highlighted Company. The new format discusses support and reistance levels and is more focused on educating investors about technical analysis through real world examples. We feel that the new format is much more in depth and educational and we encourage our investors to check out the new video charts prepared this previous week for V.GAP and HNAB as examples of the new format, and as always, we welcome all input into this and any other content you see on AllPennyStocks.com or in this email newsletter.
