December 19, 2006 Stock Market Recap

There was a good bit of weakness early this morning but the market quickly found support and rallied back to close near unchanged. For the second day in a row I was impressed with the volume given that this is a holiday week.

Here’s the Nasdaq which is officially range-bound. It’s gone nowhere (-0.05%) since November 14th.

And the QQQQ chart showing the bounce off the bottom of its range…

The S&P keeps on keeping on…

And the Russell which bounced off it 50-day moving average today…
