Lets review the real stock market, and not the Wall Street marketing tools like the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrials. The truth is 'distribution' has been active for the last 18 months.

After a period of distribution and major market players have sold all they are going to sell, the major market players will either load up on 'shorts' for a down swing or wait for a time to re-accumulate 'longs' for higher prices, as this is one week before U.S. elections you can understand that the major market players have yet to decide which way it will go.
