    We are oversold, but we are also in a bear market. Oversold can easily become super-oversold. Therefore, while a meaningful bounce could happen soon, some more downside at first would not surprise me.
     
  2. We are not in a bear market--we have been in a horizontal market. Goldilocks market?

    PS: How did you get the 5-star rating on this thread. I want my threads to also have 5-star. So knowing tricks would be helpful, particularly if in the future I decide to advertise on this forum.:)

    I'm ridin' with the Bears again this week.

    My reasons:
    Seasonality: Bearish
    Dollar: Bullish
    SPY: Bearish
    Industry Group Rankings: Bearish
    Industry Group Rankings (Manufacturing): Bearish
    Economic Data (ISM Survey): Bearish

    HOWEVER, it does look like there is an inverse head and
    shoulders pattern starting to develop on the weekly SPY
    chart. The last shoulder is beginning to form.

  8. I think I'll remain pretty bearish until we close above our June high for a few days.

    Anyone notice the long legged doji on the daily spy friday's close?

    Yes, it requires confirmation in the form of a move opposite to the prior trade on the next trading day.

    Looks like confusion, and indecision among the bulls and bears has set in.

    Yes, I know, a long legged doji is usually a better signal at tops than bottoms, but just wanted to point out a possible reversal.

    I voted bullish.

    Hope everyone had a great weekend!
    :)

"....Cohen adds that the valuations are appealing for the equity markets. “Valuations are very appealing for the equity markets; obviously with low interest rates we think that there is lot of wriggle room for interest rates to increase and equities to still look attractive,” she explains further."
