Good Evening,

Stocks made an effort at a bounce today, but was it a dead cat bounce?

 

Stocks bounce back…somewhat

Here’s what the SPY looked like today:
Today’s rally qualifies as a snapback rally, which we normally expect after support is broken. Once again volume contracted on an up day, failing to confirm the move.
 I’m not convinced. Regardless of whatever kind of short-term stuff the market throws our way, intermediate-term indicators imply that the correction is not over, and that a test of the rising trend line is still likely. I won’t be surprised at more down side. By the matter of fact, I’m betting on it. That’s all for tonight. May God continue to bless your trades! Have a nice evening.
God bless,

    Good Morning, Summers here and we’re all busy, so I’ll try to keep it brief this week. Last Thursday our charts showed a change in trend. So we reentered the equity market with the S Fund which had the strongest chart and were rewarded with a nice day on Monday. However, the two trading days…

Those future contributions should always be 100% G Fund. That automatically protects your deposit in the event that it is…
