Analysisof S&P 500 from Michael Kahn with QuickTakesPro:

S&P 500 (SPX) – At the time of broadcast, the S&P 500 was tradingaround 2091.05, just below its 50 day moving average of 2103.82 and above the200 day moving average of 2048.71. The index has been relatively flat thisyear, and Michael mentions that it’s “one of the narrowest first halves onrecord.” Greece rumors and the potential interest rate increase the Fed isconsidering may have caused some of the recent fluctuations, but overall themarket has remained sideways.

TheChart of the Day is American Airlines (AAL):

American Airlines went through a rally late last year, stabilized duringQ1 of 2015 and has now broken down. The stock was trading at 39.55 at the timeof analysis, below both its 50 day moving average (46.24) and 200 day movingaverage (46.07). Michael draws the moving average death cross where the 50 daymoving average dips below the 200 day moving average which signals theimmediate term has crossed below the long-term trend. He set his bearishbreakdown target at about 35.50 if the breakdown occurs.

American Airlines’ 30-day Implied Volatility (IV) is 37.19% and the30-day Historical is 42.77%. The company’s next earnings report is anticipatedto be announced later this summer on July 23, 2015. American Airlines lastex-dividend date was April 30, 2015 and paid $0.10 per share.
