The news is good, but how do I react? Commentary: Candlestick guru sees risk to the downside By Tomi Kilgore, CBS.MarketWatch.com Last Update: 12:56 AM ET March 25, 2002 marketwatch.com NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- How markets react to news can be more important than the news itself. When stocks are trending up, all news is good. When stocks are sagging, the opposite is true. But what about when the market is ranging? The "news" is now pretty certain -- the economy is expanding. The Federal Reserve even said that economic risks are now balanced. But a recent stalling in the major market indexes has raised questions about how to react to that scenario. I thought the market's action last Thursday may have finally provided a clue to direction market psychology was leaning.
