Markets screamed higher today on GDP growth and European optimism. The S&P 500 sprung up 3.4% and the Nazz 3.3%. Volume rose significantly, and both indexes rose above their 200 day MAs. More breakouts today lend credence to the move higher. Today TIF JBL KSU all broke out. Many more stocks are setting up valid base buy points. Risk on is back on with the dollar plunging. Commodities rose smartly with FCX RIO both up 9%. BHP rose 7%. Banks exploded, a key component in a continuing strong market. MS alone was up 18%. GS 10%. Semis were strong with the SMH up 3.5%. ARMH was up 8%, ASML up 6%. Transports rose once again with the IYT up 4.3%, but meeting 200 day resistance. Put a buy stop in on that ETF above 91, if it reclaims that 40 week MA. NSC was up 8%, KSU 6%, UNP CNI 5%. UNP retook par. The healthy retail sector was up smartly, as the XRT was up almost 4%. Big gainers in the sector were FOSL up 9%, LULU 8%. Some stocks which met technical resistance today on earnings were LMT which met stiff 200 day resistance on a very strong tape. HANS which lost its 50 day yesterday, hit resistance again today despite the huge move upward. POT did as well after posting a smart earnings beat. Moral, pay attention to moving averages. ATHN again was lower as we flagged yesterday, today falling 1%. Also weak today was PCP which had a bad outside day from an all time intraday high, just like the aforementioned ATHN did 10/21. BIDU was up 8% after hours on earnings. Earnings tomorrow come from AON BIIB CVX WY before the open. BWA also reports.
