guys I don't what is holding this up. It should be falling by now.

Keep Calm and be Long

My opinion on markets, or anything, is a health hazard. Follow or fade at your own risk!

Just the ZERO, being held up by the US$

And we have El Presidente giving press conference...

Bad form to let it crash while he's giving the sermon...

i understand you've been bearish for sometime now ... and we know that the sox shows the health in certain areas of the tech sector on stocks such as intel

of course the sox weakness has been the case all month and while the sox struggles .. the NDX is up over 100 points along with strong gains in ALL the other majors indexes.
Sept Monthly Gains.
NDX + 6.58 %
RUT + 5.60 %
SPX + 5.49 %
INDU + 4.13 %

these gains are good enough to be considered good on a year! so the major markets have not listened or followed what the sox is doing.

unless one is trading specifically the sox or its stocks, its character does not and has not influenced the DOW SPX NDX or RUT.

for me it's far from a proxy, and more like a lone horseman, and trading like a specific commodity .
:bowtie:

INTC?

Hardly.

Nope.. there's a leader though... ALTR.

I could get into why, but I will save that for some other time...

The argument is persuasive HOWEVER it is not showing any correlation to the NDX where some of the largest SOX components are represented. I too think the equities are living on love, and I think ~850 is the attractor on any volume failures such as we are seeing regularly. How long before the institutions sell? A while since they feel the upside is 1150 in the SP. I think 1129 in an inflection point they will be unable to hold up. The primary trading range for the SP will revert to 800 to 1000 for some time. No idea when. Still a little long, Islander.
