The
Weekly Report for June 18th - June 22nd, 2007
1) MARKET SUMMARY
2) INDEX CHARTS (DJIA, S&P, NASDAQ and RUSSELL)
Market Summary
In our previous report, we mentioned that the major
indexes were approaching the support of their respective
50-day moving averages and that many traders would likely
pay close attention to these averages to see if they
could stop the pullback from continuing. As you can
see from the charts below, the bulls did prevent the
momentum from shifting and Friday's tamer-than-expected
core inflation data played a key role in sending the
indexes back within striking distance of the record
highs.
The
upward diverging moving averages are a clear technical
sign that the uptrend is still intact. Specifically,
we believe that the 50-day moving average will continue
to be the key level that will be used to predict whether
the trend is shifting. The chart of the S&P is of
particular interest this week because the index bounced
off its 50-day moving average, and it looks like the
bulls have their sights set on record highs once again.
