RALLY HO (?)

So where's the Hillary Rally? By a wide margin, when the Incumbent party is polled to win the upcoming Presidential Election, the stock market rallies - since August 15 (2 months ago) it has been in a shallow but steady decline of nearly 2%.
 For the first time, my newly added Sentiment Indicator, the Delta SMI, went below 50, a Bearish sign for rising stocks; also new, the Nasdaq New Lows beat New Highs for the week. Stocks were actually slightly UP on the week, but on Low Volume, a technical divergence. Normally this time of year stocks start a rally into February, but the outlook for Bonds does not look good as rates start to climb higher (Prices lower).
Here are the results:
