***** Technical Analysis (April 8)****
The markets were unremarkable technically last week. The McClellan Oscillators are -1 and -3 for the NYSE and Nasdaq, with the 10% component decidedly negative for the Nasdaq still.
The weekly stochastics are still crossed down but not yet oversold enough to warrant a buying opportunity, nor are other indicators, including the following:

The energy stocks are also prone to more of a correction as the spot crude price seems likely to test 52, and possibly the 50 psychological support level, in the next week.
But the overall trend for this strong sector remains bullish while few, if any others, can say the same.
