Market Commentary
As noted mid-week, William O’Neil’s Big Picture analysis switched from an uptrend under pressure to a full blown correction, and Objective Elliott Wave confirmed an intermediate downtrend.
Although unlikely, the market could recover and reverse course. If trading can push the S&P500 past the 1,973 and 1,986 pricing levels, we might have a shot at another decent uptrend.
