COMMENTARY
Last week was fairly quiet, with the US stock market taking a break and moving sideways; The S&P 500 was up less than 0.1% for the week.

All indexes remain above their moving averages.

Price/volume action remains constructive, although the market did see stalling action on Tuesday last week (another form of distribution).  Leading stocks are maintaining their gains, but are also extended from proper buy points.

OEW analysis continues to signal an uptrend (Weekend Update).
