Markets lately have been climbing the proverbial wall of worry. Today they reversed and gave back early gains on good stock and economic news. EBAY purchasing GSIC, and home sales rose smartly. Add on to that the non existent normal strength usually seen on Mondays. Volume was soft lessening the blow, but the action on the indexes was not constructive at all. Leading stocks were left alone Monday however and some prospered. LULU broke out today for instance. OPEN added to its recent breakout today as did RES. EL took out a 95.65 flat base buy point although volume was suspect. Strong sectors included solar and oil and gas drillers. Weak sectors were agriculture, hotels, gold and silver miners. SMH for the second consecutive day ran into 50 day MA resistance. Tomorrow we receive earnings reports from LEN before the open and TIBX after the close. Economic reports Tuesday include Case Schiller Home Price Index and consumer confidence.
