Market Monitor: Bearish

  • Some of the indicators in MM have been in green territory for last few days. Typically indicating short term rally potential.
  • As expected the reflex bounce arrived . The fact that Bear Sterns trouble did not lead to major down move indicated a possibility of bounce.
  • The Fed action was another catalyst.
  • So again market is back in the range.
  • With 1000 plus breakouts in scans, you would expect lot of high volume breakouts, but most of the breakouts are on low volume.
