With the French election fears appearing to abate, the stock market rallied yesterday. All my indicators, save the interest rate, are still green. This could be a bounce.

Weekly Stock Market Update: Caution Continues
The major indexes are inching down towards their 30 week moving average lines. The market could be entering into a pause and possibly a correction. CNN's Fear & Greed Index is now at Extreme Fear, and the VIX just broke above its 30 week moving average line. See this chart.

Weekly Market Update: Caution
All the indicators are technically still green but there are some hints of a correction coming as the major indexes are approaching their 30 week moving average lines. We will look to see if they breach those lines in the next few weeks.
Finviz has some neat heatmaps on their site. It's a great way to see how the market is doing if you like visual tools. I love visual tools!

Weekly Stock Market Update: Mixed
It seems there is a lot going on lately. The Health Care Bill didn't pass and it should be interesting to see if politics have an affect on the markets in the week ahead.
It's been awhile since we looked at the broad market indicator readings. At the moment, we have 3 negative and 5 positive. Possible signs of slippage are beginning to emerge, however, it is too early to predict a down market. Caution is the word of the week.
This Barron's chart of the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) vs the NYSE close who's both indexes were down this week. They've been showing some weakness over the last 3 weeks.
CNN's Fear and Greed Index went into Fear territory this week as well.

Weekly Stock Market Update: Fear and Greed Index
The indicators are largely all positive. The stock gurus are worried about a correction. We certainly feel overdue for one. However, so far the stage analysis is still showing we are in stage 2, accumulation.
CNN has a great indicator they call the Fear & Greed Index. It's been in Extreme greed and just plain old greed the last few weeks. Check it out!

Stock Market Update: Flying High
The market is flying high! All the indicators seem to be screaming green. As much as my intuition says this is a top, my job is to follow the indicators. The top could last for awhile and in the meantime we should take advantage of it.
Look at this chart from Barron's. It looks extreme.
Some interesting stocks and ETF's this week are Proctor & Gamble (PG) and HealthCare ETF (XLV). Good for the watch list. Their moving averages need to turn up.
