Comment: A mixed day with the market down modestly. We used to have a bifurcated market – oversimplifying, it was Financials up, Materials down. Now – we still have a bifurcated market – but, now, its Financials down, Materials up. The big difference now is – Financials are a bigger sector than Materials – so the market is, at best, going nowhere, where previously it was going up, up, up.
Volume was extremely high today, better than 130% of the 20-Day Average. In fact, relative volume (compared to the 20-day average) excluding Options Expiry days, was the highest since late January. I think that’s significant. If we break lower soon from the bull flag on the chart, I think we’ll be going down quite sharply.
Technical Comment on the XJO (closed at 5165.4):

CBA:
The Big Bank is now in a short term down trend, but the long term up trend is not being threatened, as yet.

The Big Miner is in a strong short term up trend. Indicators are beginning to weaken, and in overbought positions. This could be getting ready for a consolidation or a short term pull back.
Watch the market reaction to The Big Bernank tonight.
