Just when so many pundits thought tech stocks were finished, the market may have proved them wrong. QQQ retakes 30 day average. (also 4week and 10 week, not shown)
30 day average is solid red line. QQQ has advanced on only 3 of last 10 days. Hiding in cash and SQQQ, which rose +6.7% on Thursday. On to the Fed speech on Friday.
Time to be in cash or in SQQQ. “Sell in May and go away; come back at Halloween.” A bottom may have to wait until after the September Fed meeting and 3rd quarter earnings are being released in October. Protecting one’s capital is the name of the game right now. The short term trend is down.
