Volatility Increasing
- Dow trades quietly early in the day, but volatility picks up steam late in the session.
- NASDAQ and S&P each broke key ranges to the downside today, but it was the NASDAQ that held on to big losses. The S&P bounced from lows, but continues to look a bit vulnerable to another decline behind weakness from the NASDAQ.
Summary
The Dow closed the day in wild and volatile fashion today, but will likely continue to build out before the next key move. Strength above 11,550 should continue to be seen in the medium term if this level remains untouched. Watch 11,670 and 11,600 for early direction.
