Consolidation/Correction Continues

Mark D. Arbeter, S&P Chief Technical Analyst

NEW YORK, Jun. 08 (Standard & Poor's) - It is still too
early to tell whether the worst of the correction is over. There
have been some positive signs but we believe further basing
action is needed, especially for the NASDAQ, before a major
move higher will be seen.

The NASDAQ made an important stand near the 1750 area
but the bounce so far has been anemic. This level is critical as it
represented the previous intermediate term top posted back in
October. This level also represented an important retracement
of 38% of the move from January to April. Support is often
seen at this Fibonacci Retracement level. Other Fibonacci
levels (rounded off) include 24%, 50% and 62%. However,
after this great of a drop (9.1%) from closing high to closing
low, the index will need to work sideways for at least a month,
possibly retesting the 1750 area before a new, sustained move
can resume.

One worrisome development about some of the major
technology components of the NASDAQ is that there is a
possibility that some stocks are putting in bearish head-and-
shoulder formations. Some individual issues have traced out
the left shoulder and head, but have yet to complete the right
shoulder, and then break the neckline. If these leading tech
stocks do complete this formation, the whole group would be
in for a nasty tumble, which could pull the entire market lower.

While the NASDAQ has broken down, the S&P 500 has held
up fairly well. The index put in a double bottom at the 1085
level and remains rangebound between that level and the old
high at 1130. Trendline resistance is seen in the 1108 area with
chart resistance at 1120 and then 1130.

The weakness in some market internals has been arrested but
mostly those that measure NYSE statistics. NASDAQ
internals are mostly negative and the split market we talked
about last week continues. Remain on the sidelines until
the market tells us otherwise.

DD - CADE? I've had this one on the "watch list", owned it before(last year), still own some and bought today. Some of the TA from the CBS site, short term looks encouraging, 90 day chart. Momentum is moving up, Money Flow is moving up(slight, but up), crossing stochastics below 20, the Linear Regression has the price on the lower channel line(reversal?) and yes it is below a short term MA of 26, even the candle sticks seem to indicate a reversal, which is overdue.

Any thoughts from the "Amigo Gang"??
