2016-07-24 - US Stock Market Averages
COMMENTARYLast week was unimpressive for the US stock markets. Price action was fairly flat, as investors and traders seemed to bide their time. It is earnings season after all, and this week will see a slew of heavy hitters report Q2 results (Apple, Amazon, Facebook, and Twitter to name a few). And there is a Fed meeting this week.
All indexes remain well above their moving averages, and price/volume action remains constructive. OEW analysis has entertained several scenarios recently, as the anticipated bear market never really materialized, and all of which point to higher highs in the short term.
