Blast Off!

Regardless of the reason(s), money continues to flood into the stock market. The NASDAQ led the way again today by breaking out above its June highs. The S&P 500 and Dow still have a (short) way to go to accomplish the same feat. For the day the NASDAQ was up 3.4% while the S&P 500 had a 1.9% gain.

Here are the charts:

The NASDAQ has quickly reached over-bought levels with the 7.5% run off of the July 1st low. As you can see, the potential double-top around 1,686 has been invalidated.

Heres the chart of the S&P 500, which is a tad weaker than the NASDAQ. It needs to push through those June highs soon to keep the belief in this rally going.

    Cup & Handle? Where? On what time-frame?

    That last little scoop formed since mid-June.

    I don’t see it. A true cup & handle, per O’Neil, would span several weeks, if not months.
