THE CLOSE


The boring range bound day comes to an end with the DJIA closing -16, NAZ -5 and SPX FLAT. The SPX did hit 1479.5 earlier before getting rejected at the pivot resistance and near the 50 day SMA. The best performing major market index was large cap value followed by the OEX and the NAZ with the RUT being the worst of the bunch.


Stong sectors included gaming, biotech, oils, drugs, utils and internets while airlines, semis, trannies and silvers lagged.
