Interesting points that not many have spoken. Today could well have been the successful re-test of friday's lows.

I remain skeptical however, as the Utilities are not participating, and the 10 yr. note rate is hitting fresh lows today. finance.yahoo.com^TNX&d=t

Perhaps the rally is, as you suggest, simply bullish Yom Kippur buyers. Could also be shorts covering as the previous lows approached.

End of Month/First of Month period is generally bullish, but that didn't materialize last month. I did put on my horns and bought a little NEM preferred today. <g>

That NAT dividend looks mighty tasty. Take a look at the chart on it if you have time, and give us a technical read.
Still looks a bit risky to me.

ed- I just checked the Utilities, and they actually ARE participating, it's just that they remain in the red. TICK has hit +1000 twice today. Maybe it's for real..
