. This
sector will often lead the overall indices, or hold them back from a significant
move higher.

The Semiconductor Index ($SOX.X)
is consolidating near its intraday lows.
This sector often leads the Nasdaq,
and yesterday broke through major support on its weekly chart.


The index makes a brief blip higher prior to moving lower.
Without the $SOX.X, the Nasdaq cannot likely make a significant move to the
upside. Keep this in mind when looking at market dynamics intraday.

Have a great weekend!
