Tremors For Stocks Coming From The Credit Markets |
Seeking Alpha - August 24, 2011 - By Eric Parnell
The east coast of the United States was not the only thing that was shaking on Tuesday. While the magnitude 5.9 earthquake caused a short and sudden jolt, the credit markets appear to be shifting in a way that might end up leaving stock investors off balance in a more sustainable way. So although stocks enjoyed an increasingly sharp rise throughout the afternoon on Tuesday, the credit markets are providing increasing signals that all may not be well.
The Preferred Stock market is one area issuing troubling signs. As mentioned in previous articles, the Preferred Stock market is an important leading indicator of underlying stress in the financial system. This area of the market was sold off sharply in early August, but then recovered to crawl back to normal levels. But over the last four trading days, we’ve seen Preferred Stocks trending steadily lower once again. This included a -0.27% decline on Tuesday on the iShares S&P U.S. Preferred Stock ETF (PFF) when the S&P 500 Index was rising +3.43%. The longer this latest downturn continues, the greater the warning sign for stocks becomes.
