6 Unlucky Stocks to Avoid

Stocks to Sell in March Triple-digit Dow swings seem to be the norm in the past two weeks, as emotional investors are swayed by headlines and oil prices. But this extreme volatility is on very low volume, indicating a possible lack of commitment on the part of major institutions. However, the overall trend remains up, for now. But in this fickle market environment, investors would be wise to get rid of the weaker stocks in their portfolios on one of the big up days. Listed below are stocks to sell (or simply avoid) either because of poor relative performance or because they have been accepted by investors as “bond substitutes.” The latter are especially vulnerable to selling in periods of lower bond prices and higher interest rates, and they offer little in the way of inflation protection. If the market does sell-off in a big way, these stocks will likely be some of the unluckiest. Without further ado, here are your stocks to sell for March:

Investors are a little unsure how the markets are going to sway as the week continues. It has been mixed and recent reports do little to skew one’s perspective too far in any specific direction. ADP reported this week that private sector employers are adding jobs, more jobs than we had originally expected. On the flip side however, is the leaking of potential layoffs across our nation. Recent consulting data reveals that the number of jobs on the potential chopping block for February is up over 30 percent when compared to January. The Dow Jones closed yesterday in the green as it finished the day off higher by over 8 percent. This positive end was also built on the news stemming from the Federal Reserve’s Beige Book report. The report revealed that the economy is growing and moving at a moderate pace in the right direction. This silver lining came with some gray as well though. The report also portrayed rising inflation potentials and higher commodity prices being passed on to the consumers of America. The growth we are seeing now could be short lived. The higher energy commodity costs could also prevent employers from hiring new employees and even initiate further layoffs. For now investors ignore the potential. The Dow Jones Industrial Average even started the day, prior to opening bell, in the green. A good sign for things to come? Author: Frank Matto

7 Japanese Candlestick Charts You Should Know

This article originally appeared on Traders Reserve . By Steve Nison A candlestick chart is a style of bar chart that displays the high, low, open and close for a security each day over a specified period of time. Originating in Japan, this Eastern candle charting technique can be a very powerful trading tool when combined with Western technical analysis. But remember that candlestick charting techniques are tools and not a system. For example, one must view a candlestick pattern within the context of the surrounding technical picture. Without doing so would be, as the Japanese proverbs says, “Like leaning a ladder against the clouds.” With candle charts, one can use candle charting techniques, or Western techniques, or a combination of both. This union of Eastern and Western techniques provides traders with uniquely effective tools to help enhance profits and decrease market risk exposure. (See my article on trading seasonal effects with candlestick charts .) There have recently been books, articles, and seminars from so-called “candlestick experts” who make no reference to where they found their information about candlesticks. Even more troublesome is that they are making up their own candlestick signals without any historical basis. Conversely, all of the candlestick patterns and signals I follow have been confirmed by more than one Japanese source (Japanese traders, Japanese books, etc.). From my vast array of candlestick resources, there is absolutely no mention of many of these “new” patterns I see tossed around by other writers and speakers. Once you have the basics under your belt, here are seven candlestick patterns every trader should know: Engulfing This pattern consists of two candles. A bullish engulfing pattern is when a white real body engulfs (hence the name) a small black real body during a downtrend. It doesn’t mean a stronger rally on a candlestick chart, but it does increase the likelihood of that being excellent support and could be the start of an ascent. But be careful. The dual bullish engulfing patterns have nothing to do with how far the market will ascend. These additional support points are a great advantage when candlestick trading. Hammer This pattern is an important bottoming candlestick line. The hammer and the hanging man (see below) are both the same line. That is a small real body (white or black) at the top of the session’s range and a very long lower shadow with little or no upper shadow. When this line appears during a downtrend, it becomes a bullish hammer. For a classic hammer, the lower shadow should be at least twice the height of the real body

This shortfall versus consensus is due to seasonally low production rates. Revenue rose 19% year over year to $870 million from $729 million, below the analysts' estimate of $881 million.

Kim Jones to helm Louis Vuitton menswear

ing2514

With all the kerfuffle over John Galliano — and the rampant speculation of who might replace him at Christian Dior — we almost missed the announcement of another personnel change in the French fashion world that landed in our inbox Tuesday. Kim Jones is replacing Paul Helbers as men's studio director at Louis Vuitton.

 Under artistic director Marc Jacobs, Helbers has been at the helm of the LV men's business for the last  five years — a time period which saw the men's business nearly double, and included runway collections  inspired by African royalty, New York City bike messengers, the Wiener Werkstätte and, most recently, a mix of Amish simplicity and David Lynch creepiness.

Succeeding him in the position, effective Tuesday,  is Jones, who served as creative director of the century-old Alfred Dunhill brand for 2 1/2 years before leaving that post in September 2010.

I always thought Jones had a knack for interpreting and updating Dunhill's DNA — not just in the clothing but accessories as well — elegant Art Deco fountain pens, silk map-printed pocket squares and jump-drive keyfobs among them — and I can't wait to see what he's going to do once he's turned loose in the vast archives of Louis Vuitton.

– Adam Tschorn

The Mad Men star posed in jewel-tone dresses, a dramatic gold headpiece, and an engraved Palladium heart pendant. And this may not be the only place you’ll see Hendricks in the baubles—the actress told The Telegraph: “The pieces really sparkle under the lights and I cannot wait to wear them on the red carpet.” See more Vivienne Westwood jewelry at VivienneWestwood.co.uk.
