MA 30 days flat trend at least 4 days (30 Days MA break out)

This is a wait signal. Watch your other buy or sell signs for direction.

A flat trend can indicate that the stock in preparing for a correction and it could begin to go down.

MA 30 days flat trend starts 4 days ago and is longer than down trend (30 Days MA break out)

This is a wait signal. Watch your other buy or sell signs for direction.

A flat trend can indicate that the stock in preparing for a correction and it could begin to go down.

MACD downward crossed zero-line less than 3 days ago (MACD 8-17-9)

When combined with a red or phantom red arrow on the Stochastics it provides a strong negative signal.

Some investors will ignore this signal if the stock is still above the moving average and the moving average is still up trending. This is called a lake play and should only be applied in a bullish or up trending market.

Today's volume is greater than 150% of the average volume of previous 10 days. (Volume)

Provides additional strength to our three green arrows. It is not necessary to have this in an up trending stock in an up trending market. It is critical to have this in a down trending market as we have more risk in that type of market.

Remember that there are two types of volume, selling volume and buying volume. We can tell the difference by looking to see which way the price moved the day we had the large volume. If the price moved up we had buying volume, which is what we want, and if the price went down we had selling volume. Selling volume will have the opposite affect on our stock price pattern and could actually warn of a new down trend.

MA 30 days flat trend at least 4 days (30 Days MA break out)

This is a wait signal. Watch your other buy or sell signs for direction.

A flat trend can indicate that the stock in preparing for a correction and it could begin to go down.

Stochastics Value downward crossed 75 more than 2 days ago, now below 25 (Stochastics 14-5 breakout)

This is a wait signal. The stochastics has dipped below the 25% line into the oversold territory. A positive signal will occur when the stochastics crosses back above the 25% line.

Today's volume is greater than the average volume of previous 10 days, but less than 150% of it. (Volume)

On its own this kind of volume is not a strong positive signal but does lend some strength to the other positive signals we may be seeing.

In a down trending market we need higher than average volume of at least 150% to invest.

Update 09/08:

Boeing Co, (BA) The Boeing Company

Business: Boeing Co, (BA) The Boeing Company, together with its subsidiaries, engages in the design, development, manufacture, sale, and support of commercial jetliners, military aircraft, satellites, missile defense, and human space flight and launch systems and services worldwide. It operates in five segments: Commercial Airplanes (CA), Precision Engagement and Mobility Systems (PE&MS), Network and Space Systems (N&SS), Support Systems (SS), and Boeing Capital Corporation (BCC). The CA segment provides commercial jet aircrafts and related services primarily to the commercial airline industry. It also offers aviation support, aircraft modifications, spares, training, maintenance documents, and technical advice to commercial customers. The PE&MS segment engages in the research, development, production, and modification of precision engagement, and mobility products and services. The N&SS segment engages in the research, development, production, and modification of products and services that assist in the transformation of operations to be network-centric, through integration, intelligence and surveillance systems, communications, architectures, and space exploration. The SS segment engages in operations, maintenance, training, upgrades, and logistics support functions for military platforms and operations.

The company was incorporated in 1916 and is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois.

Business Sector : BA has been assigned to the Aerospace & Defense Business Sector. VectorVest classifies stocks into over 200 Industry Groups and 40 Business Sectors.

Industry Group : BA has been assigned to the Aerospace & Defense (Mfrs) Industry Group. VectorVest classifies stocks into over 200 Industry Groups and 40 Business Sectors.

Capital Appreciation Analysis

Value: Value is a measure of a stock's current worth. BA has a current Value of $98.19 per share. Therefore, it is undervalued compared to its Price of $62.89 per share . Value is computed from forecasted earnings per share, forecasted earnings growth, profitability, interest, and inflation rates. Value increases when earnings, earnings growth rate and profitability increase, and when interest and inflation rates decrease. VectorVest advocates the purchase of undervalued stocks. At some point in time, a stock's Price and Value always will converge.

RV (Relative Value): RV is an indicator of long-term price appreciation potential. BA has an RV of 1.43, which is excellent on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00 . This indicator is far superior to a simple comparison of Price and Value because it is computed from an analysis of projected price appreciation three years out, AAA Corporate Bond Rates, and risk. RV solves the riddle of whether it is preferable to buy High growth, High P/E stocks, or Low growth, Low P/E stocks. VectorVest favors the purchase of stocks with RV ratings above 1.00.

RS (Relative Safety): RS is an indicator of risk. BA has an RS rating of 1.05, which is fair on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00 . RS is computed from an analysis of the consistency and predictability of a company's financial performance, debt to equity ratio, sales volume, business longevity, price volatility and other factors. A stock with an RS rating greater than 1.00 is safer and more predictable than the average stock in the VectorVest database. VectorVest favors the purchase of stocks of companies with consistent, predictable financial performance.

RT (Relative Timing): RT is a fast, smart, accurate indicator of a stock's price trend. BA has a Relative Timing rating of 0.70, which is poor on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. RT is computed from an analysis of the direction, magnitude, and dynamics of a stock's price movements over one day, one week, one quarter and one year time periods. Once a stock's price has established a strong trend, it is expected to continue in that trend for the short-term. If a trend dissipates, RT will gravitate toward 1.00. RT will explode from bottoms, dive from tops, and reflect changes in price momentum. VectorVest favors the purchase of stocks with RT ratings above 1.00.

VST (VST-Vector): VST is the master indicator for ranking every stock in the VectorVest database. BA has a VST rating of 1.07, which is fair on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. VST is computed from the square root of a weighted sum of the squares of RV, RS, and RT. Stocks with the highest VST ratings have the best combinations of Value, Safety and Timing. These are the stocks to own for above average, long-term capital appreciation. VectorVest advocates the purchase of safe, undervalued stocks rising in price.

Recommendation (REC) : VectorVest gives a Buy, Sell, Hold recommendation on every stock, every day. BA has a Hold recommendation . REC reflects the cumulative effect of all the VectorVest parameters working together. These parameters are designed to help investors buy safe, undervalued stocks rising in price. They also help investors avoid or sell risky, overvalued stocks falling in price. VectorVest recommends that investors buy high VST-Vector, Buy-rated stocks in rising markets.

Stop (Stop-Price) : Stop is an indicator of when to sell a long position or cover a short position. BA has a Stop of $61.67 per share . This is $1.22 below BA's current closing Price. A stock's Stop is computed from a 13 week moving average of its closing prices, and is fine-tuned according to the stock's fundamentals. High RV, high RS stocks have lower Stops, and low RV, low RS stocks have higher Stops. In the VectorVest system, a stock gets a 'B' or 'H' recommendation if its Price is above its Stop and an 'S' recommendation if its Price is below its Stop.

GRT (Earnings Growth Rate): GRT reflects a company's one to three year forecasted earnings growth rate in percent per year. BA has a forecasted Earnings Growth Rate of 16.00%, which VectorVest considers to be very good . GRT is computed from historical, current and forecasted earnings data. It is updated each week for every stock in the VectorVest database. GRT often foretells a stock's future price trend. If a stock's GRT trend is upward, the stock's price will likely rise. If GRT is trending downward, the stock's Price will probably fall. VectorVest favors the purchase of stocks whose GRT is rising and is greater than the sum of current inflation and interest rates, (11.55%).

EPS (Earnings per Share): EPS stands for leading 12 months Earnings Per Share. BA has a forecasted EPS of $6.61 per share . VectorVest determines this forecast from a combination of recent earnings performance and traditional fiscal and/or calendar year earnings forecasts.

P/E (Price to Earnings Ratio): P/E is a popular measure of stock valuation which shows the dollars required to buy one dollar of earnings. BA has a P/E of 9.51 . This ratio may be deemed to be high or low depending upon your frame of reference. The average P/E of all the stocks in the VectorVest database is 31.98. P/E is computed daily using the formula: P/E = Price/EPS.

EY (Earnings Yield) : EY reflects earnings per share as a percent of Price. EY is related to P/E via the formula, EY = 100 / (P/E), and may be used in place of P/E as a measure of valuation. EY has the advantages that it is always determinate and can reflect negative earnings. BA has an EY of 10.51 percent . This is above the current average of 3.14% for all the stocks in the VectorVest database. EY equals 100 x (EPS/Price).

GPE (Growth to P/E Ratio): GPE is another popular measure of stock valuation. It compares earnings growth rate to P/E ratio. BA has a GPE rating of 1.69 . High growth stocks are believed to be able to justify high P/E ratios. A stock is commonly considered to be undervalued when GPE is greater than 1.00 and overvalued when GPE is below 1.00. Unfortunately, this rule of thumb does not take into account the effect of interest rates on P/E ratios. The operative GPE ratio of 1.00 is valid when and only when interest rates equal 10%. With long-term interest rates currently at 5.95%, the operative GPE ratio is 0.35. Therefore, BA may be considered to be undervalued .

Dividend Analysis Back to top

DIV (Dividend): VectorVest reports annual, regular, cash dividends as indicated by the most recent payments. Special distributions, one-time payments, stock dividends, etc., are not generally included in DIV. BA pays an annual dividend of $1.6 per share .

DY (Dividend Yield): DY reflects dividend per share as a percent of Price. BA has a Dividend Yield of 2.54%. This is above the current average of 1.56% for all the stocks in the VectorVest database. DY equals 100 x (DIV/Price). It is useful to compare DY with EY. If DY is not significantly lower than EY, the dividend payment may be in jeopardy.

DS (Dividend Safety): DS is an indicator of the assurance that regular cash dividends will be declared and paid at current or at higher rates for the foreseeable future. BA has a Dividend Safety of 70 , which is good on a scale of 0 to 99 . Stocks with DS values above 75 typically have RS values well above 1.00 and EY levels that are much higher than DY.

DG (Dividend Growth Rate): Dividend Growth is a subtle yet important indicator of a company's financial performance. It also provides some insight into the board's outlook on the company's ability to increase earnings. BA has a Dividend Growth of 14% This is above the current average of 5% for all the stocks in the VectorVest database.

YSG (YSG-Vector): YSG is an indicator which combines DIV, DY and DG into a single value, and allows direct comparison of all dividend-paying stocks in the database. BA has a YSG rating of 1.1, which is good on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00 . Stocks with the highest YSG values have the best combinations of Dividend Yield, Safety and Growth. These are the stocks to buy for above average current income and long-term growth.
