Stuck in the mud

Stuck in the mud is the current stage of market.

Every time it tries to rally it gets pulled back in range. Every time it attempts breakdown , it gets pulled back in range.

The breadth on either up or down attempt is also low. So no major breadth thrusts on either side.

The large cap stocks are holding up well compared to the small cap stocks.

The Fed day did not produce any spark. The ECB also opted for no change in policy.

The market needs a catalyst for big move in either direction. Till then stuck in mud.
