T2108 remains on target for hitting the low 30s, perhaps even this week. The S&#038;P 500 dropped 0.8% and seems destined to retest the 200DMA sooner than later. If everything somehow works out &#8220;perfectly,&#8221; the index will execute its retest just as T2108 hits oversold levels (20% or below).<\/p>\n<p>Apple (AAPL) remains a very strange caveat to all this bearishness. While sellers were busy pushing the general market down, buyers were snapping up all the Apple shares from the orchard. Apple saw strong buying all day and hit another fresh all-time high at $373.80, closing with a 2.4% gain. Amazing how much difference a mere month can make. I will definitely be watching Apple earnings with GREAT interest Tuesday evening!<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<em>Charts below are the <strong>latest<\/strong> snapshots of T2108 (and the S&#038;P 500)<\/em><br \/>\nRefresh browser if the charts are the same as the last T2108 update.<br \/>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Daily T2108 vs the S&#038;P 500<\/strong><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.drduru.com\/money\/charts\/T2108-daily_s.jpg\" width=\"525\" height=\"356\" alt=\"T2108 vs. the S&#038;P 500 (DAILY)\" title=\"T2108 vs. the S&#038;P 500 (DAILY)\"><\/p>\n<p>Black line: T2108 (measured on the right); Red line: S&#038;P 500 (for comparative purposes)<br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<strong>Weekly T2108<\/strong><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.drduru.com\/money\/charts\/T2108-weekly_s.jpg\" width=\"525\" height=\"354\" alt=\"Weekly T2108\" title=\"Weekly T2108\"><br \/>\n*<strong>All charts created using TeleChart:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.worden.com\/CURRENTAFPROMO.aspx?AFCODE=866\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.worden.com\/Content\/Banners\/images\/88x31.gif\"><\/a><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p><strong>Related links:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.drduru.com\/money\/T2108.htm\">The T2108 Resource Page<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.drduru.com\/money\/charts\/T2108-daily.jpg\">Expanded daily chart of T2108 versus the S&#038;P 500<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.drduru.com\/money\/charts\/T2108-weekly.jpg\">Expanded weekly chart of T2108 <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Be careful out there!<\/p>\n<p>Full disclosure: long puts on SSO, long SDS<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(T2108 measures the percentage of stocks trading above their respective 40-day moving averages [DMAs].
