Markets fell Tuesday pretty hard but managed to finish off their lows. Volume came in above average on the S&P 500 and lower on the Nazz. The Nasdaq finished below its 50 day MA while the S&P 500 finished right at it. Leading stocks once again had mixed results. Stocks in the energy sector really sold off. Some looking as if their uptrend have changed. CXO PXD for example. Goldman lowered its oil price forecast and the sector plunged. Others like BIDU sold off as well. Some retail stocks powered ahead such as COH TPX NFLX LULU despite the market weakness. Stocks that show strength in the midst off a market correction are usually the first ones to power forward once the uptrend resumes. SDS and VXX both are pushing up against long term resistance levels. Lets see if they can break their downtrends in the coming days. Earnings due out tomorrow are ADTN ASML JPM all before the open and economic reports include beige book, retail sales and business inventories.
