Summary

closing hour action: a little choppy, but still battling upward to break a new intraday high of 3593, as s/t momentum continued to strengthen.

… and that concludes the week. It was a positive end to the week, which was appropriate for what has been a historic week. The s/t cyclical setup leans to the bulls.


notable stock: DIS

Sig’ gains for the mouse, although far below yesterday’s AH gains of around +7%.

notable stock: CSCO

Cisco fared distinctly better that sister Dow component of DIS.

notable stock: GDX, 60min

A positive end to the week for the miners… if net lower for the week. Next week should offer the mid 39s.. if not 40/41. I hold!


Autumn hasn’t been easy. Winter will be harder.
Have a good evening
