Great mail Thomas. I completely agree that the S&P500 and DJIA are
approaching key resistance levels at their old highs. Here are the
reasons I believe these upcoming tests will fail (he says bravely
sprinting towards the end of the limb ;-):
* The divergence with the NASDAQ - techs continue to be very weak and
are not supporting this blue chip rally.
* The divergence with the Russell 2000 - R2000 is going sideways.
* The divergence with the Utilities - the Utilities have been fading
for the past 2 days and are down again this morning.
The wildcard that might cause these upcoming tests to succeed:
"Irrational Exuberance" breaks out when the long bond breaks below 6%
FWIW: I'll be updating http://coolhistory.com/ChipsCharts at the end
of the day today with charts that show what I'm seeing.
Finally, this is a short term opinion. I'm long term very bullish on
things, but feel that the markets aren't _yet_ positioned for a strong
long-term breakout to the upside.
