Russell 2000 Makes Big Gains; Semiconductors Challenge 'Bull Trap'
Wednesday, September 11, 2019 9:58 PM EDT
A big day for bulls as two key economically sensitive indices make strong moves.
Bulls Recover Intraday Losses
Tuesday, September 10, 2019 8:32 PM EDT
While the indices finished at prices without fanfare, the intraday recovery was very good. The S&P spiked down to its 20-day and 50-day MA with a bullish hammer. Volume climbed to register as accumulation.
Friday Consolidates Gains For The Week
Sunday, September 8, 2019 9:32 PM EDT
The solid move made over the course of the week across indices was maintained with either small losses or doji. Part of this is because indices are now approaching multi-year highs which will see increased resistance.
Bullish Confidence In Small Caps
Thursday, September 5, 2019 5:42 PM EDT
While today's action was positive, there is still plenty of work to do before indices can have said to have resumed their secular rallies.
Quiet Day Although Russell 2000 Pressured
Tuesday, September 3, 2019 7:48 PM EDT
There wasn't a whole lot to say for Tuesday; indices were down, but there was little to add aside from the Russell 2000 returning to key consolidation support.

Tech Indices Breakout
At some point, semiconductors will emerge from the doldrums. Sure, Semis could take a big haircut: the Philly index is up 350% from its 2009 low (ahead of the 285% gain for the S&P), yet still well off its highs. But to look for a 'lucky if prices only drop 50%,' misses what a canary-in-the-mine sector like Semis has done in a weak economic environment.
