Co, Walt, DIS
Market Call for July 31, 1998
Contributed by Mark Seleznov, TrendTrader.com.
The purpose of this Market Call section is to educate readers in technical analysis
patterns and indicators. As with all investment information, you need to research
information and consult your financial advisor before initiating any strategies that are
contained in Market Call.
Also, you must realize that as with all trading strategies, opinions can change quickly
depending on market conditions and developments.
Splits and Support Lines
Some people feel that just because a stock splits, it will continue to rise. That is NOT
true. There is NO evidence that after a stock split, a stock will continue to rise.
After DISNEY, DIS, split on July 10th, there was an initial surge as there sometimes is
after a split. However, DIS failed to move higher and is currently lower than before the
split.
Further, on a split-adjusted basis, at the current 35 level, DIS is at critical support.
If DIS breaks this 35 support level, that goes back to January 98, I see lower prices
ahead.
I would exit longs on a break below 35 and consider a short position at this level. I
would place my stop at 37.
