MARKET COMMENTS
Dec 10-year T-notes (ZNZ13 +0.05%) this morning are up 2.5 ticks on lower global stocks today. Dec 10-year T-note prices on Thursday closed lower on reduced safe-haven demand as stocks rallied on stronger-than-expected Chinese manufacturing activity.

The dollar index on Thursday slid to a new 8-3/4 month low on speculation that the smaller-than-expected increase in weekly U.S. unemployment claims will prompt the Fed to maintain QE3. EUR/USD surged to a 23-month high after the German Oct PMI manufacturing index rose +0.4 to 51.5, better than expectations of +0.3 to 51.4.

Closes: CLZ3 +0.25 (+0.26%), RBZ3 +0.0293 (+1.15%).

BARCHART MORNING CALL 10/23

OVERNIGHT MARKETS AND NEWS
December E-mini S&Ps (ESZ13 -0.54%) this morning are down -0.54% and European stocks are down -1.07% as global stocks fall back from their recent rally. Asian stocks closed lower: Japan -1.95%, Hong Kong -1.36%, China -1.12%, Taiwan -0.29%, Australia -0.32%, Singapore -0.17%, South Korea -1.14%, India -0.47%. Global stocks retreated on signs the PBOC may be leaning toward tighter monetary policy as borrowing costs rose. China's 7-day repurchase rate surged 47 bp to 4.05% as the PBOC has refrained from selling reverse-repurchase contracts, which adds funds to the financial system, since Oct 17. European stocks were also dragged lower by a 5% drop in Orange SA after France's largest telecommunications company reported decreased earnings. Also, technology stocks took a hit as STMicroelectronics tumbled over 6% after Europe's biggest semiconductor maker reported a net loss. Commodity prices are mixed. Dec crude oil (CLZ13 -1.33%) is down -1.55% at a new 3-1/2 month low on expectations that today's EIA inventory report will show a 3 million bbl increase in crude supplies. Dec gasoline (RBZ13 -0.39%) is down -0.36% at a 2-week low. Dec gold (GCZ13 -0.79%) is down -0.89% and Dec copper (HGZ13 -1.47%) is down -0.91%. Agricultural and livestock prices are mostly higher. The dollar index (DXY00 +0.14%) is up +0.16%. EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is down -0.27% and USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is down -0.83% at a 2-week low on increased demand for the yen as global stocks slide. December T-note prices (ZNZ13 +0.09%) are up +3 ticks as the 10-year T-note yield slipped to a 3-month low of 2.48% on carry-over support from Tuesday's weaker-than-expected Sep payrolls report that bolstered the outlook for the Fed to maintain QE3.
The minutes of the Oct 9-10 BOE meeting showed that members voted unanimously to keep policy unchanged as economic data pointed to a "robust" recovery. The minutes stated that "The news on the month had continued to suggest a robust recovery in activity," with confidence rising and surveys pointing to growth of about 2% over the second half of the year. "Market rates had fallen back over the month and output appeared to be expanding at least as fast as expected" in August. "All members therefore agreed that there was currently little case for increasing the degree of monetary stimulus further."

MARKET COMMENTS
Dec E-mini S&Ps (ESZ13 -0.54%) this morning are down -9.50 points (-0.54%). The S&P 500 index on Tuesday surged to yet another record high and closed higher. Stocks rallied on bullish factors that included (1) the +148,000 increase in Sep non-farm payrolls, less than expectations of +180,000, which nearly assures that the Fed will not taper QE3 until at least next year, (2) the +0.6% increase in Aug construction spending, better than expectations of +0.4%, and (3) strong Q3 earnings results thus far as 73% of the 131 S&P 500 companies that have released earnings have beaten estimates. Closes: S&P 500 +0.57%, Dow Jones +0.49%, Nasdaq 100 +0.17%.
Dec 10-year T-notes (ZNZ13 +0.09%) this morning are up +3 ticks and the 10-year T-note yield fell below 2.50% for the first time in 3 months. Dec 10-year T-note prices on Tuesday closed higher and the 10-year T-note field fell to a 3-month low of 2.51%. The main bullish factor for T-note prices was the smaller-than-expected increase in Sep non-farm payrolls that bolstered speculation the Fed will maintain its $85 billion a month of bond purchases. Closes: TYZ3 +24, FVZ3 +11.25.
The dollar index (DXY00 +0.14%) this morning is up +0.128 (+0.16%). EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is down -0.0037 (-0.27%) and USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is down -0.81 (-0.83%) at a 2-week low. The dollar index on Tuesday tumbled to an 8-1/2 month low and closed lower after the smaller-than-expected increase in Sep non-farm payrolls boosted speculation the Fed will refrain from tapering QE3. EUR/USD posted a 1-3/4 year high as prices surged on technical buying after the euro accelerated above 1.37 per dollar. Closes: Dollar index -0.465 (-0.58%), EUR/USD +0.0100 (+0.73%), USD/JPY -0.054 (-0.05%).
Dec WTI crude oil (CLZ13 -1.33%) this morning is down -$1.52 (-1.55%) at a 3-1/2 month low and Dec gasoline (RBZ13 -0.39%) is down -0.0094 (-0.36%) at a 2-week low. Dec crude oil and gasoline prices on Tuesday erased an early rally and closed lower. Dec crude prices fell to a 3-1/2 month low on bearish factors that included (1) negative carry-over from Monday's EIA inventory report that showed a +4.0 million bbl increase in EIA crude inventories to a 3-1/2 month high, (2) concern about U.S. energy demand after Sep non-farm payrolls rose less than expected, and (3) expectations that Wednesday's EIA inventory data will show crude oil stockpiles rose for a fifth week. Closes: CLZ3 -1.38 (-1.38%), RBZ3 -0.0333 (-1.26%).

Validus Holdings - Chart of the Day

Validus Holdings (VR) is the Chart of the Day.  The stock has a Trend Spotter buy signal, 96% technical buy signals and a 3.07% dividend yield.

The Chart of the Day is Validus Holdings (VR).  I found the stock at the top of the New High List when I sorted for frequency.  Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 9/10 the stock is up 9.52%.  The yield of 3.07 and low P/E of 11.08 is attractive.

It is a global provider of short-tail lines of reinsurance including property catastrophe, property pro-rata and property per risk, marine and energy, and other specialty lines. Validus was formed in December following the significant natural catastrophes of 2005 with an experienced management team and an unencumbered capital base of approximately $1 billion.

December E-mini S&Ps (ESZ13 +0.01%) this morning are down -0.06% and European stocks are up +0.02% as the markets await this morning's U.S. Sep payrolls report for clues as to when the Fed may start to taper QE3.

China's Shanghai Stock Index closed down over -1.00%, led by a slide in property developers, after home prices in China's four major cities rose by the most in 2-3/4 years and boosted speculation the government may tighten property curbs. Commodity prices are mixed.
