A bit more of a constructive more today on the SP500 after the mutes response yesterday.
Tomorrow is day 3. After that I expect a sideways or downward move.

SP500 needs to clear the recent high before a buy signal is generated.

To

Same comment DOW.


Same comment on DOW transports..



COMPQ still the strongest. I expect leadership from this sector on any move higher. COMPQ is one of the few indices that did not generate a sell signal.



Financials are actually showing good relative strength. It did not generate a sell signal on this pullback.



Energy still on a major sell signal.



Similarly the oil services sector.

China allows banks to short-sell U.S. dollars by Michael Kitchen

LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) -- Chinese banks are now allowed to hold short positions in the U.S. dollar, the nation's foreign-exchange regulator said Monday. The move would help banks manage forex risk and would "promote renminbi [Chinese yuan] exchange rate based on the balance of payments," the State Administration of Foreign Exchange said in a statement on its website. The move, which went into effect Monday, coincided with a widening of the daily allowed trading range for the yuan. A Reuters report cited analysts as saying the decision to allow dollar shorts shows China is more confident that its currency is near a balanced level.
