Good MorningUncertainty gripped the market again on Wednesday causing the major indices to give up early gains. The tech sector led the move. The NASDAQ Composite gave up more than 2.0% at the low of the day and this may just be the beginning. The reason is simple; negotiators on Capitol Hill have yet to indicate consensus on a stimulus deal that has been very slow in coming.
Technically speaking, Wednesday’s price action spells bad news for the bulls. The charts are showing Dark Cloud Covers for all three of the major indices, signals that are echoed by other indicators. Traders and investors should expect to see at least a little more downside if not a full-blown correction. The next major target for support for the NASDAQ Composite is near 12,000 or about 2.75% below Wednesday’s closing price.
