Tuesday’s Top Names

The buy signals continue to
point upward, as we have CVR III and VI buy signals on the Market Bias Indicator
page Monday.

The daily charts on the major indices, however,
continue to say something else. Which do we believe? You have to respect both.
The market is oversold, and the CVR’s have not been working out so great lately,
which actually means when they kick in, the move could be huge. As well, the
move on the daily charts could still have some room downward in it left. Keep
candidates ready to go both directions, and go whichever way the big boys decide
to blow the wind.
