COMMENTARY
Last week’s retest of early March’s price levels was going well for the Russell 2000, NASDAQ and NYSE. Friday’s massive sell-off put a damper on things as we head into next week, suggesting another week or two before another retest of those highs…as long as the Greek financial mess doesn’t cause more problems. Elliott Wave levels dropped a notch:
- Resistance: 2,085 / 2,131
- Support: 2,019 / 2,070
