Last week was seasonally a good week for the stock markets, even in the 2nd year of a new President.

It wasn't this year.

 

Shutdown fears and horrible jobs numbers will do that.

The MACD of $NYUD shows a potential "T" top around the 12th (Weird Wally Wednesday)

I have seen surprise rallies at the end point of T's.

CNN'S Fear and Greed index is neutral at 52% bulls.

AAII Sentiment is also fairly neutral.

McSum is trying to roll over.

The NYSE continues to look toppy but it made another monthly all time high before pulling back to a positive $2.15 change for January thus far. The current price is below the highs of the last 3 months.

 

Mike Burk's data shows that the second Presidential year is the one where you "Go away in May" (mid April).

So I'm thinking that any WWW rally would be short-able for a trade.

I have a signal on the S&P 100 for a low around April 20th, 2022.

I have to sell in early April to generate cash to pay fugly big capital gains tax on April 15.

Why would you want to sell near the bottom?
