NASDAQ Technical Picture - Bears Own It
BEAR ATTACK
U.S. markets cratered including an aggressive sell-off that whipped the Dow down almost 450 points in the afternoon. The main take-aways are the extreme volume levels and disparity between the Advancers and Decliners - NYSE Adv: 290. Dec: 3071 and NASDAQ Adv: 541.. Dec: 2562. This disproportionate spread between adv./dec. often accompanies market turns.
The technical damage includes a broken trendline, loss of the 50 MA, and 38% retracement of the March - July rally in just five sessions. With just three trading days left in July, we are technically oversold and due for some sort of relief rally.
Economic Calendar: GDP, Chain deflator in pre-market and Michigan sentiment at 10:00.
