COMMENTARY
US stocks showed signs of life last week, with higher volume up days indicating the start of a new uptrend. OEW also confirmed an uptrend, so odds are good that the markets will see at least a short-term rally. If so, the next few weeks will be a great time to readjust your holdings, especially if you’ve managed to hold on to positions since August.
