Today, we have another round of trading news and information from our top analysts here at Traders Agency. And of course, our Trade of the Day. US Retail Sales Gain Big: The advance retail sales data for September soared by 0.7% for the month and 13.9% for the year. This is big as it shows not just the resilience of the US consumer that makes up the majority of the US economy but that they are willing to spend and spend more. And with the US Commerce Department reporting household savings now sitting at $1.6 trillion, there is more dry powder for more retail spending in the current and pending months. Good for stocks, of course. Stocks Gain Again: With more earnings reports including for Goldman Sachs (GS) and trucking specialist, J.B. Hunt Transport Services (JBHT), it shows how the market is working for the right financials as well as the super-vital trucking and transportation sector. The S&P 500 Index’s gains for the week put it at the best performance since July. But as we’ve seen in past weeks, beware of Monday’s pullbacks or sells after a weekend of over-thinking and reading by traders and investors. Crude Oil Further Up: US crude oil prices gained again on economic growth and ongoing demand outpacing supply. And this comes after this week’s bit of a recovery in stockpiles in US storage. Oil and gas companies are now getting more buyers as banks and financials, including private equity, are further getting into this sector and its companies. Bond Yields Up: The US Treasury yield for 10-year maturities is back up to over 1.57% in yield, dropping in price. Competition from the rally in stocks didn’t help bonds, but note that there continues to be heavy institutional demand for bonds that isn’t going away. This will continue to keep a lid on yields that when they do blip up get bought by US and foreign bond investors needing fixed-income securities for their portfolio management.

Now, on to our Trade of the Day… Independence Realty Trust, Inc.
Not everyone wants or can own a single-family home. Instead, many folks want and need to live in multi-family apartments, and the demand has been soaring recently with limited supplies and in many markets heavy demand that is exceeding supply.
And the market demand and supply for rental apartments around the US is resulting in surging rents. According to the recent data from the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and further culled and analyzed by Apartment List (private), the median gain in US rents is up by 16.40% since January through September’s data.
This is huge. But not all apartments are in the same demand, as all properties are different with “location, location, location” along with condition and amenities driving even more rent gains and occupancy demand.
This is where I have followed Independence Realty Trust, Inc. (IRT) out of Philadelphia for some years now. The apartment supply and demand conditions, while accelerated recently, are not new.
This real estate investment trust (REIT) has always focused on high-quality properties in suburban or near urban markets in mostly higher-demand secondary cities around the US. But it also has a great portfolio in the Dallas-Fort Worth Texas Metroplex.
The key for this apartment company is that it is in the prime markets with the prime properties with extremely high occupancy rates. In addition, it is in the process of acquiring Steadfast Apartment REIT, Inc. (STFR) that not only complements its properties in Texas but expands the base in similar areas in the sunbelt of the US markets.
This is the trade on rental apartments right now. Rising rents, strong current occupancy and strong demand for vacancies. Independence Realty Trust Price -- Source: Dow Jones With the current price at $21.31, IRT is a buy under $22.00 with a near-term target of $25.00 and even more beyond that. And for safety, consider a stop at $20.25.
Now, on to the best of Traders Agency… It’s Almost Time to Jump Into This Market
The Nasdaq 100 E-mini (NQ) is finally breaking into the buy zone! We've been out of the market for the past few days as we waited for it to leave the sell zone.
Now that the NQ is very clearly trying to break into the buy zone, we can prepare our buy-in strategy and get ready to trade the market.
But we can't pull the trigger on a trade until the market closes above the trendline and in the buy zone. So, because of that, the short-term direction for the market is still technically down.
If the current trend continues, however, that will change very soon! Get Josh's Daily DirectionHow One Simple Change Could Drastically Improve Your Trading
The goal of a trader is to make money. Plain and simple.
