Higher highs AGAIN.....NICE !!!!

Indices raced to higher highs before profit taking took hold..@ close Dow was green other indices lost barely .28%....this is significant because pullback was pretty mild considering we had a major run in all indices..it was nice to see that S&P 500 went to 1148.59 while closing @ 1139.78....

RSI in S&P 500 is @ 66.87.....

Internals were negative as heavy selling took hold...

AH Futures UP

AH Asian market Mixed

Oil & Gold UP

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

thanks for your positive take on Ford--it is a long shot--i like the divi and love the Ford recovery story.....
Here is a news clip on over bought stocks--Apple is at the top of the list!--yeks.

At the open today, 313 of the 500 stocks in the S&P 500 were trading in overbought territory (more than 1 standard deviation above their 50-day moving averages). Below are the stocks in the index that are the most overbought.

In the screen below, the right side of the dark red zone represents 3 standard deviations above the 50-day moving average, and many of these names are trading right at this level. Qwest Communications (Q) is the most overbought stock in the S&P 500 at the moment, trailed closely by Travelers (TRV), CenturyLink (CTL), Oracle (ORCL), Discovery Communication (DISCA), and Forest Labs (FRX). Apple (AAPL) is right up there as well. And big retail names like Kohl's (KSS), Wal-Mart (WMT), and Best Buy (BBY) are also on the most overbought list.

All of these names have clearly had a nice run over the last couple of weeks, but at these levels it's tough to make an aggressive bet on the long side. It's probably worth waiting until they get a little closer to their normal trading ranges before putting on a long trade.

Saleem,

I was in the ride with AAPL today, in at $283.5 and out at $287. It was a good ride. Now wait and see! I am looking at LVS. It behaves better this morning.
