Not a market for buying stocks at new highs
The past 2 days there have been fewer than 100 new 52 week highs and there were more new lows than new highs yesterday. For now, profiting by buying stocks at new highs is a low probability bet. Maybe this post earnings lull decline will set up a rally when first quarter earnings come out in April? I am looking to buy bounces in late March.
