The Afternoon Key

I would suggest to you that the finance sector fund, symbol XLF, is absolutely key this afternoon.

The post-Thanksgiving gap and the broken trendline are allies of the bears. The ally of the bulls, damn them all, is that cluster of activity I’ve emphasized below. I believe it would be nigh impossible to break through that, at least today, but if we can at least start to push back into that zone, that will be a very encouraging sign for the ursine crowd. There is no sector more represented in my 30 positions than finance, so………...fingers crossed.
