Markets rose Tuesday, and did so despite some shaky economic reports. Just the opposite of what it did yesterday, when indexes reacted poorly to good news, and staged a negative reversal closing upon the lows. Today with consumer confidence and depressed home prices, the markets started lower and staged a positive reversal to the upside. Volume was mixed, but leading stocks again performed admirably. HAL and SOHU broke out today. Stocks hitting all time highs today were CAT CMI FOSL LULU PAY TSCO ROK. Many leading stocks are setting up new potential buy points which adds encouragement. TIBX did fall after hours after reporting earnings. Tomorrow we have FDO report before the bell and MOS after the close. Economic news comes out concerning jobs and job cuts.

Stocks that showed strong relative strength today were SLB WFT PVH UA LULU QCOM NXPI. PX broke through par today. Just a quick tale of two companies, one that ate the others for lunch. TPX which hovers near all time highs, and which has a chart of beauty, against ZZ, a company not far from its all time lows. Moral here. Buy strength.
