Dow:
- biggest one day point gain.
- biggest 2 day % move (8,2) since Oct 21,87

In sep/oct 87 and 1929 as well early breaks of over 10% were immediately
retraced in about 23.6% fibonacci days for about 62% while markets broke
therefater way further. Hence big breadth and big sucking in of all dip
buyers are no guarantee for a solid bull.

I pass on that one. Risk reward not quite obvious to me here.
