EARLY EDITION II

As noted earlier, I shall be travelling the next two weeks - family bonding (and stocking). Monday should be quite exciting despite (hopefully) no 9/11 tragedies - after Friday's meltdown. Still, Sentiment Indicators, through bloody Friday, were mostly echoing Augusts ennui. A/D (advances/declines) were obviously ugly, but the new highs - NY and Nasd - still Yuge..

Volume about the same as previous, despite the Monday off. The Bullish % (stocks on a Buy signal) and its new cousin -  Delta SMI - remain high, but no weakness in either. And the McClellan Oscillator, near the minus 50 level (usually my buy signal for Monday) would indicate a reversal of Friday (thanks Fed); or maybe NOT. Fedmeet is the 20th on, and Fiscal year end a couple weeks later - budget????
