Welcome to The MoneyMax Market Insight for this week.
The insights for the week ending Fri May 01, 2020 are below.
Just a few points:
- In the week ahead the market will begin focusing on company results that have been and will be published over the next few days
- NCBFG has started, and has already said that they have seen the impact of the virus on their results
- Other companies have started to mention it as well, but the extent of it will likely drive investors to make serious decisions, especially with dividends for some stocks out of the picture
- As mentioned in the last report, dividend stocks would have been the focus over the past week; and we saw where quite a few had significant changes (even forcing NCBFG to a 52w Low)
- However while Banks stocks do pay reliable dividends, they are not the ONLY dividend paying stocks. Look at the Dividend stocks section
- ICREATE and JETCON are in the worse performing stocks as there was bad news for both. The market is digesting the news on the former and there are recent updates that car sales are down overall
- KEY is another story. The stock keeps going up. Why? I think momentum will cool this week
- Wow. Just realizing while preparing this that SCIJMD’s price is down almost 50% YTD. What a year on the markets

Bid-Ask Spreads
Bids > Close Price. Bullish
These stocks are expected to appreciate in price. There is strong demand (smaller spreads) and bid and asks are above the previous close. Bid-ask spreads indicate demand and supply / market liquidity. Bid represents demand and ask supply.
Company | Close | Bid | Ask | Spread $ | Bid-Ask Spread % |
Bid Vs Close |
Ask Vs Close |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
KPREIT | 5.20 | 6.00 | 6.15 | 0.15 | +2.50% | +15.38% | +18.27% |
ICREATE | 0.42 | 0.45 | 0.46 | 0.01 | +2.22% | +7.14% | +9.52% |

PJAM | 75.01 | 78.95 | 79.10 | 0.15 | +0.19% | +2.65% | +2.85% |
NCBFG | 141.98 | 144.66 | 147.64 | 2.98 | +2.06% | +2.13% | +4.23% |
A small spread exists when a stock is being actively traded and has high volume – this is normally prefered as it allows orders to be filled quickly at the prices we want.
Bids < / = Close Price. Bearish
These stocks have bids (and possibly asks) below the latest close price. These tend to be stocks with low volumes and/or wider spreads. Small or unknown companies frequently exhibit lower trading volume because fewer investors are interested in relatively unknown firms.
Company | Close | Bid | Ask | Spread $ | Bid-Ask Spread % |
Bid Vs Close |
Ask Vs Close |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
EPLY8.75 | 6.50 | 0.10 | 6.50 | 6.40 | +6,400.00% | -98.46% | 0.00% |

KLE | 1.65 | 1.35 | 1.70 | 0.35 | +25.93% | -18.18% | +3.03% |
Large bid-ask spreads on illiquid shares are also used by market makers to compensate themselves for assuming the risk of holding low-volume securities. A wide spread represents a higher premium for market makers.

Note: As stocks start to rise, there can be more and more greed in the stock market. You see more and more people thinking, ‘Oh yeah let’s put money on that stock because it’s going up.’ Watch out for that.
YTD Bears
(Worst performers)
Excluding new listings
Stocks losing the most value since the start of the year. Note the number of lows they’ve hit for the period as well
Company | Open | Close | Chg $ | Chg % | # Of Highs |

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
ECL | 6.65 | 3.20 | -3.45 | -51.88% | – | 9 |

JETCON | 1.69 | 0.96 | -0.73 | -43.20% | – | 7 |
Note: Being ‘bearish’ is a sign of pessimism – thinking a stock is going to lose value. ‘Bearish’ investors, therefore, are likely to sell. In some cases (with research) you can take advantage of fear and greed – buying when there’s fear.
