Right or wrong is irrelevant when we're all advancing educated guesswork. Here's mine: -- mutfund tax-loss selling season ends Monday because Tuesday is window dressing day. -- money flow and price drops make clear which companies make for good window dressing.... sector leaders and leading sectors. -- the cash accumulating from tax loss selling found good bargains in the right sector Thursday. -- the JDSU report (oops, I lost a billion dollars in 3 months; plus all the gross revenues. my bad) was spun as sweet as cotton candy. Its nutritional value is irrelevant for a few days. The immediate pressure on the sector is off. -- the money flows to the fattest for the next 3 trading days. --MRVC reports Monday. ONIS reports Tuesday. NOPT reports Thursday (like this one; see AH news btw). CSCO reports a week from Monday. OPLK reports the day after CSCO... a few hours before BKHM reports. --MRVC spinoff is due the week CSCO reports. --NUFO and ONIS unlocks are not far off. --Govt involvement, either the US or Saudi Arabia, in the oil situation, is near. --The optical sector will see variances in individual performances, based on the factors I just noted. --After 5 of 12 trading days broke 3100 to the downside and three challenges to 3000, support has held. --Mkt sentiment is bullish for Friday and only a bad GDP or other bad news can turn Fri/Mon sour. --Up or down, I don't expect heart-stoppers like Thursday for another 3-4 trading days. --Declines next Thursday, Friday, Monday or rises? Depends which political party controls the oil spin. And opticals will decline a little in November, but the serious optical downturn will come in Dec/Jan. Just my best guess.
