Central Banks To The Rescue

The stock market is up big time today. The Dow Jones is up 400 points as of this writing. The major central banks agreed to ease the strains in the European credit markets. The Federal Reserve agreed to provide cheaper dollar funding to the European Central Bank which can then provide cheaper dollar loans to European banks.

We're not going to see an end to any money printing anytime soon.

Price today closed at $66.65. I waited a day or two after the stock went down 13.88% on Wednesday to see if it will still go down. Charts using MACD, RSI and Stocastics show oversold. I'm not an expert in looking at charts so I'm just guessing here. The stock opened at $66.43 on Nov 10, 2017 and went as high as $67.14. I was thinking whether I should buy it or not. Near closing, it hovered around $66.70 to $66.75. I put a limit order of $66.72 when it was at $66.75 but didn't get filled for about 3 minutes, then it got filled and closed the day at $66.65. Did not really follow the 3 technical indicators as outlined in Rule 1 Investing which was probably a mistake.
