The
Weekly Report for April 28th - May 2nd, 2008
April 27,
2008- Market Summary
In our last report,
we noted that the bulls managed to stage a rally in response to the
first wave of earnings
releases. As you can see from the charts below, the bulls were able
to extend their gains for another week, but many traders are now curious
to see if the momentum will be able to continue as indexes approach
the resistance of their respective 200-day moving
averages.
We've added
the Relative
Strength Index to several of the charts because it is nearing
the 70 level. We expect that this indicator will trigger overbought
conditions (above 70) once the stock gets closer to the mentioned
moving averages. An RSI reading near 70 will make the major indexes
prone to a sharp pullback.
