This Indicator Says Market Could Rally By Jon D. Markman, Contributing Writer, Money Morning Stocks struggled over the past week as investors managed to shrug off an escalating conflict in Korea only to have renewed sovereign debt troubles in Europe slug them in the face. The Dow Jones Industrials and S&P 500 both closed half a percent lower while the Nasdaq closed half a percent higher. The European exchanges all closed 3% to 5% lower. Yet some sectors thrived. Best groups for the week were retailers, semiconductor makers and Internet software and hardware makers, all up 3% to 5%. Major damages were mostly in large-cap banks and materials producers. Despite the trouble, some positive patterns emerged in the United States. In my reports two weeks ago, I mentioned that the S&P 500 Index had a shot at making a "cup with handle" continuation pattern if the decline stopped immediately at 1,080. It actually did, then fell back and tested the 1,080 level again this week. Click Here to read more on why the market could advance... What Are You Waiting For?

"ALL BRANCHES... of our government ARE IN BUSINESS with Wall Street..." from Money Morning Reader, T.S. Buy, Sell or Hold: Six Reasons That VMware Inc. (NYSE: VMW) Shares Are Poised for a Breakout By Jack Barnes, Contributing Writer, Money Morning I've always been a hands-on kind of person. And that includes information-technology (IT) projects. While it has been a number of years since I was involved in a serious IT project - with most of that work having been done before I started and ran my hedge fund - I have worked on Website projects for a number of S&P 500 companies in the past. I am comfortable around large IT projects, so I was a bit shocked when I realized how much VMware Inc. (NYSE: VMW) had changed the basic structure of the game while I was gone. That point was driven home when I volunteered to head a major IT project for a local city; it turned into a project-manager job that has involved making director-level decisions. It didn't take long for me to realize that the city needed to deep-six its computer system and start over: Hardware from the late 1990s and early 2000s just won't cut it in a world that's on the doorstep of 2011.
