The major equity indexes closed mixed Tuesday with negative internals on the NYSE while the NASDAQ saw negative breadth but positive up/down volume. While some new closing highs were achieved, all the indexes closed near their lows of the day, creating some potential near-term topping candlestick chart signals.
Near-term trends for the indexes were unchanged as all remain positive as do the cumulative advance/decline lines. However, the data is still sending some cautionary signals from the detrended Rydex Ratio versus the Insider Buy/Sell Ratio as discussed below. So, given the data setup combined with some potentially negative chart signals, we are maintaining our near-term macro-outlook for equities at “neutral.”
On the charts, the major equity indexes closed mixed yesterday with generally negative internals as all closed at or near their lows of the day.
The data finds the McClellan 1-Day OB/OS Oscillator are neutral (All Exchange: +33.82 NYSE: +39.53 NASDAQ: +29.34).
In conclusion, the cautionary signals discussed above suggest we keep out “neutral” near-term macro-outlook for equities in place.
