DB - Focusing On Prices Not The News - J.C. Parets Joins Alpha Trader

If you’re looking for a tonic to the ceaseless flow of (mostly) disturbing news on any number of fronts, than this week’s Alpha Trader podcast is for you. Host Aaron Task is joined by J.C. Parets, market technician nonpareil and chief market strategist at All Star Charts (co-host Stephen Alpher is out this week). His eye always on the price charts and never on the news flow, Parets remains bullish on stocks. To those who say the bull market needs a break, Parets would say there’s already been one, noting leading names like Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Facebook, and Alibaba are flattish-to-down (in some cases significantly down) since early September - that’s more than four months of lame performance. If you ask him for a price targets, Parets will say 38K, or nearly 25% upside on the Dow (COMP), and 4.5K, or about 20% upside on the S&P 500 (SP500).
