Buyers came into the market

Chart courtesy of stockchart

Wall Street rebounded today after oil and natural gas prices fell hard amid mild winter weather that has depressed demand for home-heating fuels. Nasdaq composite index was up 12.33, or 0.51 percent, closing at 2,413.51. The NASDAQ Composite Index have tested the support at the 50 Day Moving Average successfully, and we start to see some improvement on CCI Indicator. I continue to believe that the market will continue to move higher until more of this bearish sentiment is unwound.

That's All. Have a nice evening !!!

XM Satellite Radio Holdings on the move

Chart courtesy of stockcharts

Shares of XMSR rose nearly 5% to 15.81$ today and SIRI rose nearly 3% after some stimulating comments from Lehman that put investors very happy and actives in both stocks.
Today Lehman came out and said that XM is worth 45 dollars a share if they merged with Sirius, or that Sirius was worth about 9,50 dollars if they were acquired by XM. Too see the article click here.
Lehman Just Admitted that XM and Sirius are Undervalued taking the actual share price in consideration for a possible merger, it's my opinion. Looking at the charts XMSR has broken out an important resistance $15 with respectable volume and closed above the 200 dma for the first time since 2005, so many reasons to be Bullish in the stock now, perhaps after these comments we'll see many pressure in the stock to move up.

CIENA - Has broken the neckline

Chart courtesy of stockcharts


Shares of CIENA rose nearly 7% today to 26.63$ and it has broken out the neckline and confirmed my previous analyse about a possible Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern on the stock mentioned here on November 30th. Penetration of prices through the neckline after a pattern has been completed becomes an indication that bias in the markets probably change and maybe be pointing to the future path of prices. In the daily chart we can see that the volume today increased on the breakout. Behind this movement is related this news from Ciena Corporation web site.

Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. - Technical Perspective

Chart courtesy of stockcharts

Shares of SIRI still trading inside a channel near the top ( $4.30 ). The stock is still down about 36 percent this year, hurt in part by concerns about industry spending on programming and the auto industry's woes. Chief Executive Mel Karmazin said on Thursday that expects to offer a live television service in cars by late 2007, and deals with content providers may be set as early as January, also Chief Executive Mel Karmazin said on Thursday that holiday sales were strong.

The technical chart shows many Bullish Indications as RSI ( trading in Bullish Territory ) , MACD above 0 and stock trading above 20dma and 50dma. Due to these Indications I expect a channel breakout during next week, it's only my opinion based in the daily chart, this information should not be viewed as trading recommendation.
