About market, TAPE started nicely higher and made all new all time highs on an intraday basis, then started to react to trade war comments and US$ weakness strategy by US officials, as TAPE was overbought, it gave an excuse to lock profit, thus a sharp decline in all indices. Resiliency of this TAPE was obvious when traders stepped in @ lows of the day, indices erased majority of losses by close and Dow closed @ new all time high. VIX was giving a clear signal that this selling has no leg and was contained in a narrow range. Today's selling gave a new leg to this bull run.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.
