The drop in Initial Jobless Claims pushed the BullandBearWise Index higher this week.
April 21, 2006 (Press Release) --
For the latest week, the drop in the Unemployment Rate and rise in the Producer Price Index (PPI) added an unweighted value of 4 to the Index. The rise in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) subtracted an unweighted value of 3 from the Index.
During the week, the Housing Market Index (HMI), Money – Zero Maturity and Housing Starts remained on-trend and did not affect the BullandBearWise Index.
For the week, the cumulative unweighted change was plus 1, resulting in the Index rising to 55.22.
The indicators used in the BullandBearWise Index are weighted based on the table available at http://www.bullandbearwise.com/calculation.asp. All bullish indicators are then summed and divided into the sum of all the indicators. When an indicator changes from bearish to bullish, the Index increases 1.5 times the Weighting. For example, if Consumer Credit (Weighting = 1) turns from bearish to bullish, the BullandBearWise Index would increase by 1.5.
