Another day closer

With equities rebounding across the day, the bears can understandably be disappointed, yet...we are one day closer to putting in a key multi-month high. That still appears very possible around the time of the next FOMC - March'19.

Summary

So...the Wednesday declines have been negated, and we're within range of a daily, and more importantly..weekly close in the 1850s. Indeed, weekly charts are offering the 1870s in the immediate term, and that should expand to 1880/90s in early March.

Just look at how powerful the Nasdaq Comp' looks on the monthly cycle...


Nothing bearish there, is there?


Looking ahead

We have some housing data to conclude the week. Perhaps more importantly, there are two fed officials on the loose - Fisher and Bullard, and Mr Market will likely be waiting to hear what they have to say.

*next Sig'QE is not until next Monday, and bears should be concerned that next week has 3 sig' QE-pomo days.
