Who would have know that just in January 2010 the Dow Jones would lose such steam and drop 600 points in only a couple weeks time. With serious unrest in the markets and job creation still in limbo and the global markets in China having some market issues and facing there own economical slow down we have watched the markets dip more in January 2010 then in any prior month that I can recall in 2009. Caterpillar releasing it’s 2009 earnings still severly down by 39% but able to pull in a profit in the black of $7.9 billion in profit projecting a much better year for the 2010 year has had a decent return back on the share price but just January alone these past 2 weeks we have watched it lose some steam and drop $12.00 from it’s 52 week high of $64.00 which it reached about 12 days ago.

Many sectors still hurting from the recession that began in the middle 2008 has pulled a small recovery but with global markets now beginning to feel a pinch in some countries that had been running somewhat strong are now beginning to drag down our own American Markets which could spell another downward trend for the Dow Jones as we have seen it drop the most in January then we have seen in probably 6-8 months.

Hopefully some stability will fall back in line and we will see these points return and the New Year will have some far better projection then we have seen over 2009 market year. Keep your fingers crossed and thoughts into future companies that could be set to make a huge rise. Like always make sure your selections in stocks hold some valued trends on returning back to there peaks.
