All the major US indices were negative. Last week we suggested that Dow Jones Industrial Average does not have many chances to advance, and it dropped 78.51 points, or 0.62%. The Standard Poor's 500 Index lost 8.32 points, or 0.58%, while the Nasdaq Composite gave back 15.82 points, or 0.65% for the week. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

S&P 500 Long-term perspective: The S&P 500 index monthly uptrend that started on 6/14/2006 has a five waves impulse structure. Price is near the monthly uptrend support line. The chances are high that S&P will soon break the support line and move down toward the multiyear support. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
S&P 500 Short-term perspective: The current weekly wave is forming a rising wedge pattern. The rising wage is a triangle formation with noticeable slant to upside. It represents the loss of upside momentum on each successive high and has a bearish bias. Rising wedges usually marks the reversal in uptrend. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

QQQQ Trend Analysis - 1/12/2007
Last week we suggested that SPY might rally to retest the weekly resistance at 142.78. Indeed it was a strong week for the major markets. For the week the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 158.07 points, or 1.27%. The Standard Poor's 500 Index rose 21.02 points, or 1.49%, while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 68.57 points, or 2.82%. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The Nasdaq was the last one among three major indices to reach the long-term uptrend resistance line. QQQQ daily and weekly Lane's Stochastic are strongly overbought. MACD has bearish divergence. All above indicators suggest that Nasdaq is ready to turn down and join S&P 500 and Dow Jones in down trend toward the long-term support line.
QQQQ - Long-Term Trend |
In addition to all bearish indicators QQQQ had a bearish Advanced Block candlesticks pattern. This pattern is usually considered as a reversal signal. This is a warning that the bull has ran out of steam, and the rally is slowing down. We expect additional weakness of the QQQQ upside price action next week.

The annual Christmas Rally formed the final fifth wave that is now completed or almost completed. A new downtrend line toward the multiyear support is about to start.
