Berney; RE:" OEX " >How about taking a look at OEX on a daily chart. Seems that an argument could be made that today could break the neckline of an H&S pattern. What do you think ? yes - yesterday, actually; far-target is ~522 neckline - ~582 head = ~470 level , Berney. Some chart supports around ~500 +/-5 level, FWIW. >Seems like your buy program moved the market again. Now we need some more buy programs... ...probably other technical accumulators, like me, Berney. Selling is relentless and controlled - looks like big money that is redistributing portfolios; funds outflow now negative and, accelerating I believe: modern-day equivalent to a "run" on banks ? BKX.X IUX.X XBD.X have met 2 out of 3 of my accumulation levels already; what remains is... CMB @ 51 AIG @ 80 GRN @ 219 MWD @ 54 DLJ @ 32 MER @ 61 ...and then I'll be done accumulating NF.X sector equities in my core. Have decided to skip WMT and RLX.X sector, as I believe retail is no longer defensive. Will go with DRG.X LEAPs when growth is evident and warrants leverage again. I also prefer to just LEAP that sector rather than try to pick individual equities within it, unlike the NF.X sector. TechStocks... I'm doing what Tommy's doing, just hanging tough . My (our?) F/A tends to be non-indicative of valuation growth in this sector, Berney. What appears to work is simply buying the bellwethers with a lot of visibility and consistent earnings. Ironically, Berney - they are the only buy-and-hold investments that appear to work ! EuroWEBS are telling me to accumulate some EWG - Germany at 1x19-5/8 / 2x18-1/4 and 3x16 level; though if the DOW closes well today (for whatever reason) I think the DAX will bounce, and I may execute a scalping-trade by going long EWG and selling for a fraction. -Steve
