Markets saw some seesawing action Wednesday. Starting higher, losing ground around an hour into the session, then rallying furiously, until giving back a big chunk of gains in the last half hour. As usual the Nazz led the way with a 1.6% gain on good volume. The caveat was that it hit resistance around the 2600 level which has been a problem recently. It is nearing its 50 day MA near 2620. The S&P 500 gained 1.4% on average volume. Some stocks in this run up have reached impressive ALL time highs. They include RL CERN DLTR AZO. More and more leading stocks are setting up valid bases. Cup bases and their exact buy points include AMZN 227.55, V 90.93, BBBY 60.65, FAST 36.90, PCP 171.53, AAPL 404.60. Double bottom base are COST 83.55, ARMH 31.08, MXIM 26.33. Double bottom with handles are CVS 37.56, VPHM 20.38. 3 week tight patterns are DPZ 28.55, SBUX 39.49. And AN 41.65 in a cup with high handle pattern. Bearish advisers now outnumber bullish advisers for the first time in over a year. Perhaps there is too much negativity flowing around. Yesterday certainly had the feel of a short squeeze. More bullish behavior was exhibited by some old leaders. RIG, the focus of some bad news, regarding its responsibility with the Gulf spill last year, actually rallied retaking its 50 day MA Wednesday. Bad news, bullish action is a plus.
