Hi Everyone:
Well, I'm pretty amazed that we have not seen a pullback yet. However, I fully expect one soon. In fact, I prefer that it happens sooner rather than later. IMO, it is not good to see so many up days in a row. I believe it would be healthy to see the Naz pullback to 1920-1935 and as long as we stay above 1900 I think we are OK.
We have seen the SP 500 up for 9 days in a row now. During that time the index has risen 6.5% to a 2 year high. We've seen increases across the board on the major indices. This week the DJ Composite was 60 up and 5 down after 61 up and 4 down the week prior. However, on Friday it was 37 up 28 down as Utilities were hit hard. Overall the DJ Composite was +2.9% for the week
The DJ Transportation Index hit its highest level since 1999 and the NYSE Composite hit a 3 year high. The SP Small Cap 600 and SP Mid Cap 400 hit ALL TIME highs this past week too.
Be careful this week. Many indicators I look at indicate we are either overbought or fast approaching O/B territory. The 1st level of Naz resistance is in the 2048-2058 range. I will be very surprised to see the Naz over 2058 before a major pullback. Of course, as those of you who know me from groups and chats, I was surprised that we went over 2025.

After Hours
Advancing volume was lower than Declining volume everyday this week...so it just goes to show that after hours action is not always a reliable indicator. That may be because only 1/3 to 1/2 of issues even trade after hours.
OPLK and NTMD were up nicely A/H on Friday.
