About market, TAPE appears to have worked off froth in last seven trading days, 1698.78 high has been tested three times & it appears to be ready for a takeout. IF we break out 1750 is a logical target. This TAPE has amazing resiliency & did not correct even 2% this time, just marked time for about fourteen days @ support line of 1680 area. Get ready for a major lift off.

TAPE showing "renewed strength" ........
TAPE is showing renewed strength which cannot be ignored.
Thursday & Friday we opened weak & erased all the losses by close.
TAPE does not want to budge too far from its all time highs.....
S&P 500 high so far is 1698.78, Friday's low was 1676.03...this was a pullback of only 22.75 points or 1.34% in 4 trading days......
Majority of bad earnings are being ignored & some stocks are rewarded with "new all time highs" after bad earning.....AMZN is a classic example of this.....
Fed is meeting & Wednesday we will get their statement @ 2.15......no one should expect any surprise but a repeat of "confusing statement regarding timing of taper"...September may come into focus again & denials again & again until it actually tapers in September.
Friday is Jobs report, expectation is of 185K of jobs growth, i think we may exceed this number.
I am expecting that by end of Friday, we could be sitting well above 1700.......
This IS the strongest TAPE i have observed, does not want to correct too much but wants to go HIGHER gradually.......
@ many juncture it felt that we could go down for an extended period but we find support quickly, current support lies in 1676 area.......
It is OK to be "nervous" about this market, but it is "more important to change when support is found"
NO two market TAPE is identical....this TAPE has its own unique strength which must be recognized by all participants......
YES there has been blowups in many stocks, some of them in my portfolio which has hurt me " in lack of performance"...but there are 1000's which has gone UP substantially.
We need to be objective in our view of this market, ones own performance does not necessarily represents overall market TAPE.
I do not believe that this bull run is over, it may get new strength based on new found strength in many leaders.
SO...sit back & let your portfolio breathe & run for better gains.

TAPE is @ major inflection point. To analyze we have to look @ the following to see what they are trying to say :
-S&P 500 @ 1692.09

-Oil @ $108.05
-Gold @ $1292.90
-VIX @ 12.54
-Bulls @ 52.1%
-Bears @ 19.8%
-AAPL & AMZN earning
Each of the above are a catalyst for a major move......direction depends on where we are looking @......
I have color coded them to show where the direction could be......it is important to pay attention to RED & GREEN....
-Complacency is the-most dangerous stage in investing or trading......
-Earning season IS coming to an end, as expected Techs are showing weak result which will be reinforced until Q4.........
-Base Metals are in no position to make any notable move yet, could be 2014 story.
-AG are also in DEEP trouble with grain prices hitting low & inventory on the rise.
-Financial are the only group which IS improving with a tick UP in interest rates.
SO..it is time to reflect on what has been a great run in 2013 so far...BUT we have another FIVE+ plus months to go.......next 75 days may be challenging.....
It is wise to book gains ASAP.........

About market, TAPE may pause for Ben Bernanke testimony in front of politicians. Sector rotation is slowly making its move. As TAPE is near high point in RSI, it is important to focus on booking some gains.

Chinese GDP report may scare this market ?
Everything seems to be very good for this market.....Fed supportive....TAPE strong......Momentum building up......what not to like?
Chinese GDP data may give pause .......
China has been targeting 7.5% GDP growth......but lately weakness is creeping up in Chinese economy.....
Chinese Foreign Minister made a "startling comment" in New York few days back......he said "we are going to grow GDP @ 6.5% to 7%.......this statement is a change from previous guidance of 7.5%......this implies that 2nd half Chinese GDP growth may be around 6% only.......
IF Chinese GDP is on the lower end, it may signal another sell off in Commodities ......
Ben Bernanke is testifying before House & Senate...which is after potentially weak Chinese GDP. BB may be more supportive in his testimony....thus a positive for TAPE.
Earnings season are another positive, most estimates are low low low...easy to beat & guide higher.....
Some of the sector rotation are in play these days....Gold, Oil & Ag are the next to move.......
Tech is favoured from October to January........do not be surprised IF there is profit taking after earnings in this sector......
Many technicians are starting to play catch-up as they are caught in their bearish thesis.
S&P 500 @ 1680.19......we are heading much higher to series of new highs.......reason is that we are getting strength in US economy.........it is a US growth story.......
This summer could be very interesting for all participant.
As you have noted about my predictions, it IS based on the TAPE, sometimes i can see weakness when it is not there & it comes to reality in few days. It is also important to quickly do a reset IF TAPE is turning UP.
Good luck with your stock picks & strategy.

About market, IBD has changed its rating tonight to "new uptrend". Even stockcharts were extremely bearish going into this week which i inferred in my Sunday BLOG. It is interesting to see how such big outfit got this TAPE so wrong. Everything is lined up for a move to series of new all time highs. Looks like RSI may hit 75 before any serious pullback.
