Something is ailing the markets and it appears to be on the way to 1230. Looks like a pit stop below 1300 around early august then no debt deal for fast plunge to 1230.

May play out like bounce off of the 75% retrace in winter of 2010. Up to 13.2K then down 1500 points into the fall.

Just like the tech sector was in the 2003-2008 advance, the financials will be the hook that will keep many from participating in the advance...until the top.

Every pricing sequence is as different as a snowflake; what were market leaders turn into laggards and are shun...it's been this way since man began trading hide for flint.

As the financials go, so goes the world, or is it the other way around? :)

I would be feeling better sitting here if it wasn't for that huge cup & handle in the Nasdaq. My pain point is NQ @ 2446 - if it runs, that is the best chance of a reversal.
The system wasn't designed so that most people could beat it.

Fib, we are still operating in the aftermath of the RE bubbles popping though. Almost all of the national finances are still in trouble for trying to absorb the private sector losses and the banking should've recovered better after all the cash they received, but they could not because the RE is still troubled. We have now a new bubble in the Treasuries as a result of it, the debt has grown tremendously...

No different than the tech bubble in the late 1990's and its aftermath...every top has one.
