Key Quotes
“The stock market indices suffered another loss today, but despite the negative sell at the end of the day, the technicals were positive on both the advance-declines and up/down volume, despite the lower prices on the indices.”
“Taking a look at the stocks on my board, the vast majority, more than 80%, were up today. So, I have to think that they were close at potential turn.”
“The day started out with a little move to the downside, and then a pop to resistance. When that failed, a later morning pop made a lower high, but failed at the declining topsline and moving averages. They then stair-stepped their way lower all day, closing near the session lows.”
“Net on the day, the Dow was down just 27.55 at 17,635.39, 8 points off the low. The S&P 500 was down 3.92 at 2040.24, a point off the low. The Nasdaq 100 was down 23.70 at 4305.38, also a point off its low.”
