I am already a long-term holder in GILD shares. Now on to the the stock market commentary&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week was truly a week of <a href=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/2020\/03\/22\/t2108-update-200320\/\">green shoots<\/a> as numerous stocks finally broke primary downtrends defined by their lower Bollinger Bands (BBs). Those breakouts became classic buying opportunities as they provided 2-3 days of gains. The S&amp;P 500 (SPY) strung together its first 2 and then 3 days of gains since its 200DMA breakdown. However, in most stock charts that I reviewed the downtrending 20-day moving average (DMA) provided stiff resistance for these green shoots. This coming week the green shoots are at high risk of getting trampled if buyers cannot summon enough energy to push through this next level of resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Oversold<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I call the stock market oversold when <a href=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/t2108-resource-page\/\">AT40 (T2108)<\/a>, the percentage of stocks trading above their 40DMAs, closes below 20%. This historic oversold period is now a mind-numbing 23 days long. This oversold period is easily on pace to take the mantle of second longest on record (since 1986), and I gulp hard considering the prospect of this market challenging the record of 41 days set by the 1987 stock market crash. Since <a href=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/2020\/02\/27\/t2108-update-200226\/\">the first oversold day<\/a>, the S&amp;P 500 (SPY) has lost 18.4%. Per the chart below, the index still has potential upside left if the oversold period ends well ahead of all-time records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1406\" height=\"954\" src=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SP500PerformanceOversold_200314.png\" alt=\"Performance of the S&amp;P 500 (SPY) from the beginning to the end of an oversold period.\" class=\"wp-image-52074\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SP500PerformanceOversold_200314.png 1406w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SP500PerformanceOversold_200314-768x521.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1406px) 100vw, 1406px\" \/><figcaption>Performance of the S&amp;P 500 (SPY) from the beginning to the end of an oversold period.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<br><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1196033822186410\" data-ad-slot=\"3478942445\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><br>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Stock Market Indices<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The S&amp;P 500 (SPY) lost 3.4% after failing to challenge its downtrending 20DMA.

ITB is a buy on the dips down to the 2016 low. Given the market&#8217;s response to the last two major earnings reports (Lennar (LEN) and KB Home (KBH)), I am more optimistic that the market will be looking past the housing downturn that is sure to come alongside the virus-generated recession.

On Wednesday, BA gained 24% on its best single-day performance since its IPO in the 1960s. I had to take all profits on such an outlier day.

I heard such alarm bells during the last collapse in oil prices. It never happened. Is this time different? Who knows. I am a running skeptic of all predictions of oil prices given the market is so highly manipulated. With oil around $20 and down $30 in less than a month, I am sympathetic to predictions of $10 oil. What I DO know is that USO is one UGLY chart!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"550\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/200327_USO.png\" alt=\"United States Oil Fund LP (USO) lost 7.5% and closed at a fresh all-time low.\" class=\"wp-image-52261\"\/><figcaption>United States Oil Fund LP (USO) lost 7.5% and closed at a fresh all-time low.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1168\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/200329_oil-prices.png\" alt=\"Oil prices never recovered from the 2014 - 2016 sell-off - Crude Oil Prices: Brent - Europe  vs West Texas Intermediate (WTI) - Cushing, Oklahoma\" class=\"wp-image-52308\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/200329_oil-prices.png 1168w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/200329_oil-prices-768x296.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1168px) 100vw, 1168px\" \/><figcaption><strong>Oil prices never recovered from the 2014 &#8211; 2016 sell-off &#8211; Crude Oil Prices: Brent &#8211; Europe  vs West Texas Intermediate (WTI) &#8211; Cushing, Oklahoma<br>Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, Crude Oil Prices: Brent &#8211; Europe [DCOILBRENTEU], <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"retrieved from FRED (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/fred.stlouisfed.org\/series\/DCOILBRENTEU\" target=\"_blank\">retrieved from FRED<\/a>, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis; West Texas Intermediate (WTI) &#8211; Cushing, Oklahoma [DCOILWTICO], <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"retrieved from FRED (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/fred.stlouisfed.org\/series\/DCOILWTICO\" target=\"_blank\">retrieved from FRED<\/a>, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, March 29, 2020.<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>SPDRs Select Sector Energy ETF<\/strong> (XLE)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The SPDRs Select Sector Energy ETF (XLE) somehow escaped oil&#8217;s fate last week.

AAPL&#8217;s breakdown March 20th and 23rd was like the final cards falling as the stock market finally found a bottom there. Minus those two days of collapse, AAPL has become a bear\/bull stalemate since the first 200DMA breakdown. This chop is just fine for the weekly call trade.
