SANTA CLAUS RALLY

Odds are, despite Dark Pools making up half the stock market Volume these days, that the usual final week will pass us through the 20,000 mark on the DJIA, even with a four-day week. After that, I do not see much of a strong rally in 2017.
One reason is that so many $$ are going into Index ETFs, that it is lifting the bad/weak members of that Index along with the good, and could weaken the rally. Most Indicators below were Bullish, short term, except for the early week newsletter Bull/Bear ratios. Nasdaq Volume was strong, yet overall Volume down; stocks on BUY signals up; equity flows from MMFs good.

 Have a Great New Years!!
