Pre-open Indication: NONE

A daily report may say little or a lot and its final judgement may be inconclusive; yet it serves as insurance that all indications are being examined, evaluated and reported.

I write this blog/newsletter to inform investors with facts and supporting numbers focused on what they need to hear that others won’t say or write about - truth!

The Christmas holiday is starting for me with a limited review for the week, the 8:00 a.m. edition

Remember that overnight and pre-open actions in futures don't necessarily translate into actual trading in the coming day’s session.

Dow futures are UP +0.23% or (+74 points), S&P futures are UP +0.16% or (+6 point) and NASDAQ futures are UP +0.21% or (+22 points) early in the pre-open – so far,

Companies in my headlights – It’s your decision; I provide ideas and context: INDICATIONS

I am passing on any Positive or Negative indications – “Let ‘em ride”!

Although I foretell … some downside equity NEGATIVITY!

The BOTTOM LINE: I try to keep it simple and short!

The stock market and cell and gene therapy sector suffered losses Thursday, wiping out Wednesday's and Tuesday’s gains.

Be prepared … just 6 trading days remain in 2022.

Still, until December 31, investors may want to be cautious about making ANY buys.

Market exposure should be slim, limited only to positions that are working; investors might want to take partial profits or simply exit some trades with a gain.

I’d be calculating selling for tax purposes amid the ongoing cell and gene therapy sector volatility, “our” universe’s trend remains " in a constant correction." That means that … lately we are investors are safer on the sidelines.
