Commentary: Paul Ebeling on Wall Street
$DIA, $SPY, $QQQ, $RUTX
Looking at the major US stock market action President Trump coming down hard in trade issues, the The Congress’ continuing dust up with the DOJ and FBI.
- S&P 500, DJIA posted oversold bounces as growth was favored for a 2nd session running
- Some new areas are attracting money
- Are the new areas showing us that the US economic expansion will continue?
- There are those that doubt this economy’s ability to continue gains, will they be proven wrong
This will be an important week for growth and market’s direction overall.
Friday the S&P 500 and DJIA finished in the Green, while the leading growth stocks and their indices (NAS Comp, RUTX) sold for a 2nd session running.
Volume was huge at 2.2-B+ on the day, but that was due to the annual Russell adjustment. And maybe the start of some rotation, but the moves to end the week were not enough to show a change in investor likes and dislikes.
The action left several important stocks at near support after 2 Southside sessions, making week important for growth issues plus the market’s direction going forward.
To me this does not look like a move that is setting up to roll over, but a branching out into other areas, areas that support the belief that the US is going to continue to expand.
Pay close attention, as it is your money and your responsibility.
