S&P Loss Coincides with Extreme Optimism…
Yesterday was only the 17th day of the year that the S&P lost more than 1% for the day. This coincides with a report of the extreme optimism that exists (meaning everyone is all-in)… A short-term 2-5% pullback would be healthy here and certainly normal within a longer-term bull market. This pullback will then push […]
The Pattern that Repeats Itself…
The same pattern that’s repeated itself throughout 2013 played itself out again yesterday and the market is slightly overbought. As I’ve mentioned, this bull market is being made up of the majority of the days moving less than 1%. Rising prices and low volatility is the hallmark of classical bull markets and this one is […]

How Close is the Next Rally?
The US is moderately oversold and most of the world is more oversold (the World Country Fund ETFs have a ConnorsRSI reading of 27.03 today).

Last week’s pullback was small and a further pullback would be welcomed but in the meantime this market is likely going much higher. […]

Will this Pullback Pick up Steam?
The US markets are now oversold and with over 80% of the liquid country fund ETFs trading with ConnorsRSI readings under 30, the short-term pullback is global. The best scenario would be for this pullback to pick up some steam and last a few days in order to set up the next move higher. In […]
Global Markets Move into Oversold…
3 World Series in 10 years and that’s known as reversion to the mean for last century. Yesterday’s pullback was in-line with normal bull market behavior. A number of the global markets had much larger pullbacks and many are now oversold. (You can view the ConnorsRSI for ETFs here.) We’ll look to enter the US […]
