  1. I love your German women but you suck.

    In other news, Japan raised their markets, and the futures are less negative.

    The difference I believe is dividends -- you need the total return index of SP500, not the SPX to do your analysis of 200SMA...

    As I mentioned, as this is not a total return index, the dividends paid brings the index lower than it really it, so it is easier to hit the 200SMA but it does not represent real economic loss in value. When you use SPY, stockcharts uses the total return as I verified with Bloomberg.
