Gary,
Honestly, I don't think so, but I also expected to see stronger upside follow through. I think if we test these lows, and at this point I still don't think that will happen, it will only try to test them and then continue higher. But, I don't see 6500. BTW, I also initially thought that late October would be the time to buy around 7200 on an intraday spike down, maybe it still might be, but I bought on the day of the first key reversal into good support about two weeks ago.
And now, there are too many gurus touting a low in October which makes me think it won't happen. The majority of gurus' consensus is never right. I think they just hear each other talk and then repeat what they hear because it sounds in vogue and cool at the moment. This may just be my bias because I don't hold any guru in reverence.
The bottom line? I've been long now for a few weeks and see no reason to sell at this point. The stocks I picked are doing well and some are near their old highs, some are near their recent lows. I suspect it will get choppy for a while, but I believe that after these markets shake off the jitters, the direction is up from here. BWDIK
