You can forget the ARMS indicator for a while since the number Friday was 0.71 bringing the 10 day average down to approximately 1.3, way off the 1.5 needed to indicate the potential start of a bull market.

This 1.5 reading on a 10 day average would show an OVERSOLD condition which we have not reached just yet. Give it another 2,000 or 3,000 points on the DJIA (to the 5,000 - 6,000 range) and we may get the kind of reversal you are talking about.

... a few more weeks!

Also, if you look at the long term chart quote.yahoo.com^STI.N&d=mym , you will notice that the current range is very small compared to the wide swings of 1987.

Not to worry: we are in a bear market and there is no bull around the corner just yet.

Have a very nice day.

Pierre
