Thanks. I considered looking for an entry point over the weekend, but reran my scans on just the core holdings sublist (25 industry groups of 4-5 leading companies with 3 years or longer of consistent high earnings and price growth) of stocks and found too many sell signals in that subsector of the market to consider going long just yet. They tend to be the last subsector to get hit, except for the more aggressive tech companies in the list. Since I restrict my trades to those stocks and to index spyders, I have no new potential longs till I reexamine today.
