Trusting The Indicators...
******************************
During a Bear Market supports fail, one after the other... Once trusted indicators
become unreliable... This is what contributes to the fear of buying into a whipsaw... Once
the BEAR is ending and supports start acting like supports again, there is a tendency to
wait for the other shoe to drop... In the meantime the market keeps moving higher while
we wait for more selling into the rallies...

I am now seeing supports acting like supports... First the Nasdaq was stubborn at
1800... Then stubborn at 2000... All the while many of us were waiting for the break of
supports once again... Mr./Ms. Market has decided to confound the majority once again
by continuing to produce higher lows...

One by one Linear Regression lines of 8, 34, 89, and 200 days have been bested by the
Nasdaq as it continues to confound those who are expecting the next big wave of
selling... At about 2600 the Nasdaq will meet its 400 day Linear Regression line... That
will be the real test... In the meantime, a 17 month trendline back to October 2000 when
the Nasdaq was at 3500 will be tested in the 2250 area in the next two weeks...

With more rate cuts coming, a tax cut coming, and a stronger than expected economy,
we should see the major indexes continue to surprise to the upside...
