The bottom line is that we are sitting at or near the top of an extended market that up to date has refused to break down. My thought is that this resilience is due to the FED’s quantitative easing program. It appears that a growing anxiety over the end of this program coupled with the added anxiety of being on top of an extended market is putting a constant drag on the market and probably will do so until it ultimately breaks down for a real correction, if not for even more. Our strategy remains to take advantage of whatever holiday push that we get. All that said, caution is warranted. Should we, at any point in this process, get sell signals we will not hesitate to sell. That’s all for tonight. May God continue to bless your trades.
