Hi LG; I saw some sell signals early last Friday, but wanted conformation, and they canceled out Firday before the close, had I looked good yesterday I would have seen this coming today, MMM , DD, EK, & DIS held the Dow up, but that amounts to a fake out, ( the tail wagging the dog ).. All but 2 of the real heavy weights went right on south from Friday, ( a lot of money was taken out of the DOW Friday, & Monday, while the index was held up by some buying in the thinner traded ones ) .. ------------------- More on the next one. Jim

SURPRISE Here are the small cap grth same time frame, and if any one was looking at my post back in August they would know I said a small cap rally would happen, ( at least before a big correction ) So if you just been looking at the Rut2000, or the SML600, then you haven't seen the real action. These babies are almost a 3rd better than the Large Caps since August, ( and guess what that's after most people dumped out of them ) --------------- Wed Jan 13 12:49am ET - U.S. Markets Closed.
