T2108 Status<\/strong>: 55%.
\nVIX Status<\/strong>: 19.5.
\nGeneral (Short-term) Trading Call<\/strong>: Hold.<\/p>\n

Commentary<\/strong><\/p>\n

T2108 nudged upward to 54% from 51%. As I guessed yesterday<\/a>, the oversold stochastics on the S&P 500 were good for a (one-day) bounce back to the 50DMA. I think the regularly scheduled selling will resume next week.<\/p>\n

HOWEVER, a major caveat has developed in the form of Apple (AAPL). As I have stated in the past, it is hard to get overly bearish when AAPL is doing well. On Friday, the stock had a strong close to finish at all-time highs. Earnings are coming Tuesday night (July 19th), and it seems traders are trying to get in ahead of what they perceive will be excellent results. Whatever made traders and investors so timid just a month ago when Apple underperformed the market has suddenly disappeared from their radar. If AAPL’s results excite the market with better than expected results (hard to do for Apple), the regularly scheduled selling in the market should be postponed for at least a few days. While I have absolutely no interest in shorting AAPL, I will be looking to fade the next stock market rally…especially if T2108 manages to flip back into overbought territory.<\/p>\n

Otherwise, my forecast remains for T2108 to hit the low 30s before the current short-term downtrend ends.<\/p>\n
