JUST LETTING YOU KNOW
We had a very strong day today, price-wise. But volume wasn’t up to snuff. Volume on the NYSE was rather light. Volume on the Nasdaq was a little lighter than yesterday.
But the most important thing that happened today:
- Nasdaq
- Nasdaq-100
- Transports
- Financials
- Retail
…all held their 10-week/50-day moving averages on the recent pullback. I leave it at that. That is key. That is vital. You know my thought process. As long as major averages are staying above that line…GOOD.
Go look at Apple. It was down 7 early…572. It closed at 609, up almost 30. Go look where it hit. Go look where the Nasdaq, the Nasdaq-100, and the Transports hit. Go look at the XRT. Go look at the RTH. All of these tagged (on a daily chart) the 50-day Moving Average and that’s what’s supposed to happen.

So it was a very good day. We don’t want to worry about why. While the chink in the armor is the volume, BUT most leading growth names held support.
