GZ, >>What I found was that the sum went negative around October 10th or so, about a week and 1/2 before the Friday and Monday crashes. Yes, we had that big drop in July or Auguest and then the market tried to recover. During this recovery the AD line just stayed realtively steady instead of moving up as the DOW tried to recover. As you noted it detoriated ahead of the crash. Joan

Hi GZ: I have some data to calculate the difference between the sum of advances and the sum of declines for the previous 25 days on the NYSE. Here is all the data I have 12/22/97_______ 372 12/19/97_______ -994 12/18/97_______ -851 12/17/97_______ 349 12/16/97_______ 492 12/15/97_______ 229 12/12/97_______ 39 12/11/97_______-1,497 12/10/97_______ -968 12/9/97 _______ -632 12/8/97 _______ 247 12/5/97 _______ 542 12/4/97 _______ 219 12/3/97 _______ 395 12/2/97 _______ 296 12/1/97 _______ 1,034 I have been collecting the advance decline information only since the end of October. The above numbers all represent the difference between the two sums of 25 days. Tomorrow will go negative also, unless we have an incredible amount of advances over declines. The table shows what I have been noting about weakening internals.
