What To Do In The Worsening Stock Market Correction
Amid persistent selling across the major stock indexes IBD's market trend remains in a "market in correction." That means that investors should be defensive and on the sidelines.
To prepare for a new stock market rally, investors should be waiting for a follow-through day. When the market is in a correction, look for at least one major index to attempt a bottom. We are still looking for the first day that the index closes higher counts as Day 1 of its attempted rally. The action on Day 2 and Day 3 is irrelevant as long as the index doesn't undercut its latest low. If that low is undercut, the rally try is done and the market needs to try again.
On Day 4 and later, you are looking for the Nasdaq or S&P 500 to rise sharply in higher volume than the previous session. That's a follow-through day. It gives investors the green light to start buying leading stocks breaking out past correct buy points. It should put your portfolio and mindset in sync with the stock market action by gradually committing capital to leading stocks.
Nevertheless, it is important for investors to put this downtime to good use. Now is an ideal opportunity to study market bottoms and to build a strong watchlist of top-performing stocks. Many long-term leaders tend to break out at or near the follow-through, the market bottoming signal. Missing that early opportunity can be a costly mistake.
Monday's The Big Picture column commented, "At one point Monday, the Nasdaq composite was up 1.4%. It turned out to be a mirage, as the stock market indexes quickly faded and closed with more losses. The faux rally was symptomatic of bear markets, when stocks often find strength in the early hours but buyers disappear by the close."
