2pm update - equities up... metals down

It remains a very tedious day.. within a particularly tedious week. Equities are in seemingly algo-bot melt mode, with particular strength in the momo stocks. Not surprisingly, as market confidence remains high, the precious metals are weak, Gold -$6... set to break soft rising trend support.


GLD, daily

Summary

*new equity index highs all over the place... the only ones to yet follow... Dow, Trans, and NYSE Comp'

Indeed, right now, we have a rather strong spike-floor for the sp'500.... bodes for 2110/20s early next week. Weekly charts will be offering resistance at that point.

re: metals... new multi-year lows look due.... primary Gold target remains the giant $1000 threshold (equating to GLD 95).. but the 900/875 zone looks very viable by late summer.

At that point... we'll probably have a floor.

The 'Greek situation' remains tiresome... ohh, the little games that the Greek finance minister is playing right now.

2.05pm.. Dow breaks a new historic high.

Nasdaq Comp', just 1.1% away from the giant 5k threshold..... and from there... just 132pts until the tech bubble high of March'2000 is taken out.

A monthly close in the 5200s.. and its probably a straight run to 7k. Disturbing thought.
