Hi John and OX,

If you look at what the semi equipment big caps have done: amat ,klac, lrcx, ter, they have all recently had a big run up to new all time highs.

stockcharts.com

Now look at the secondary and tertiary semi equipments: brks, cohu, rtec,form,klic:

stockcharts.com

Generally the small caps have a run yet to go in order to catch up to the big cap brothers.

By the time this market completes its topping process ( assuming it is not different this time) the smaller caps will have out performed the big caps on a percentage basis.

Makes me think the Russell will shake out harder but in the end out perform. JMHO

Bob

The Global markets are getting the idea that the Trump does not want a higher dollar... both Gold and Silver and copper are on the move on look to be heading higher.

SPX march contract 2 standard deviation bottom line comes in at 2215 or so.

The commodity currencies the CAD, the AUD, the NZD are all making bold runs for new highs of the year.

What will the FED do this week.... no increase but their language will be interesting.

The Trump team gave us 2 perfect tells last week, first when they boasted about DJIA 20,000.... then they really brought on the Wrath of the Market GODS by saying the the VIX TRADING UNDER 10 was PROOF of how good their policies are.

That was a supreme tell. I realized it Sunday night and mentioned it here.

I commented to one of my trading buddies here comes the 5 to 10% correction in stocks that comes quickly.

Is this my beloved descending triangle on the March SPX... running an very tight stop on 70% of the position.... like 2269 and a higher stop on the rest.... might be looking at 20 points or a measured objective of 35 points. The NDX does not look good either.
