insignificant.
<LI class=MsoNormal
><SPAN

upward.

strong.

<SPAN

>Increasing volume is generally good and the
chart below shows, since the late March low, volume of the component issues of
the Russell 2000 (R2K) has been increasing.<SPAN

and new lows. In the chart below,
the indicator (in blue) is constructed by subtracting momentum of new lows
subtracted from momentum of new highs.
New highs and new lows for this chart have been calculated from the
component issues of the R2K on a trailing 6 week basis rather than 52 weeks as
reported by the exchanges.

subtracted from new highs. For this
indicator new highs and new lows have been calculated on the component issues of

that most of the markets gains can be captured in the first and last few trading
days of each month. Some months are
better than others. The tables

during the past 15 years.
