Risky Business Monitor: Dec. 22, 2014

The New York Stock Exchange released its data on securities market credit earlier this month than it historically has done most months, so over the weekend I was able to bring up-to-date the levels of my Margin Debt Directional Indicator, or MDDI, and my Securities Market Credit Risk Rank, or SMC Risk Rank, as well as the associated comparison of the historical monthly levels of NYSE margin debt and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY).

Here are links to all the 2014 articles in this series centered on the risk of speculation in the equity market:

The Institute for Supply Management released its October 2014 Manufacturing ISM Report On Business Monday and most likely will release its October 2014 Nonmanufacturing ISM Report On Business Wednesday, which means I soon will be able to bring up-to-date my proprietary U.S. Economic Index and the associated comparison of the historical monthly levels of the USEI and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY). My article on these data series will appear either at J.J.’s Risky Business or at Seeking Alpha.

Meanwhile, Seeking Alpha published last week my latest piece about securities market credit at the New York Stock Exchange. As customary, I brought up-to-date the levels of my Margin Debt Directional Indicator, or MDDI, and my Securities Market Credit Risk Rank, or SMC Risk Rank, as well as the associated comparison of the historical monthly levels of NYSE margin debt and SPY. Below are links to all the 2014 stories in this series centered on the risk of speculation in the equity market:

The New York Stock Exchange may report its data on securities market credit for August as soon as Friday, which means I might be able to bring up-to-date by this time next week my Margin Debt Directional Indicator, or MDDI; Securities Market Credit Risk Rank, or SMC Risk Rank; and comparison of the historical monthly levels of NYSE margin debt and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY).

Risky Business Monitor: July 28, 2014

The New York Stock Exchange most likely will report its data on securities market credit for June today, late this month or early next month, which means I soon will be able to bring up-to-date my Margin Debt Directional Indicator, or MDDI; Securities Market Credit Risk Rank, or SMC Risk Rank; and comparison of the historical monthly levels of NYSE margin debt and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY).

It would be nice of NYSE to adopt a publication schedule for its three securities-market-credit data series, but the exchange has not done it during the past 197 years, so I am not exactly holding my breath as I await such a blessed event. My article on the June data will appear either at J.J.’s Risky Business or at Seeking Alpha. Meanwhile, our droogies at the latter site have published the following pieces on the subject this year:

NYSE Margin Debt As An Indicator Of Long-Term Movements In S&P 500

NYSE Margin Debt Hits Record $444.93 Billion In December: Risk Rank At No. 1

NYSE Margin Debt Reaches Record $451.30 Billion In January, With Risk Rank At No. 10

NYSE Margin Debt Hits All-Time High Of $465.72 Billion In February, With Risk Rank At No. 2
