Hi Everyone:
Well, we are off to our worst start in many years. The Naz 200 dma is 1976. Personally, I think we just might test that level. The DJ Composite saw 10 up and 55 down this week.
For the year, the Dow Jones industrial average is down 3.62 percent, the S&P 500 is off 3.63 percent, the Nasdaq is down 6.49 percent, SP SC 600 -5.2%, NYSE -3.5%, SP 400 -4.4%, Naz 100 -7.2% Rus 2000 -6.3% and the AMEX is off 1.3%.
This past week was very defensive as precious metals and food sectors led the way up 2 to 2 .5%. Y-T-D the top sector is Real Estate Holdings/Development up almost 5%.
I added a couple of new charts today. Please click the Charts and Graphs page over to the left in the Table of Contents.
