SPX has rolled over after getting overextended on the Trump election rally. We might get support at the 20day MA here but we really need a drop (or I can be fancy and say “draw down”) to the 50 day MA to flush out more froth. We reversed from RSI 70 and Stochastics has just rolled over. US financials which have been outperforming for months are holding up fine at the moment. Stocks going against the overall market on a weak day shows you what you want to be in not just on the day but for longer term holds. If financials rolled over now that would be a bad sign to indicate a larger move lower. The way it looks now to me we are just seeing a run-of-the-mill pull-back and you want to keep some cash to deploy at lower levels. I’m so relieved that I cleared out of tech which is getting clobbered.
