Market Update: Stocks Are Strong
Last Wednesday, the market fell on very heavy volume and is rallying back on lighter volume. Normally, that is a worrisome sign because it is a subtle, but important, sign that the there are more sellers than buyers in the market right now. But “normal” market analysis doesn’t work in this environment and we have to be very cognizant of the fact that price is primary and everything else – including volume – is secondary. For us, the fact that the bulls immediately showed up and quelled any further bearish action is impressive considering how far along we are in this bull run. Underneath the surface, the action still remains healthy and we are seeing a good number of breakouts/ new setups emerge: MNST, EBAY, ADBE, BABA, AMZN, NFLX, INTU, COH, GOOGL, AAPL, GLW, ISRG, BDX, FDX, ROP, CAT, LMT, MAR, (in no particular order) and that is just a few of the very strong stocks I’m seeing in the market right now. Put simply, until I see any big selling, the market continues to deserve the bullish benefit of the doubt.
