For September 7, we're going to pretty much echo yesterday's commentary. True, we got spanked royally, but the fact remains, the sell signals are now even more pronounced. The monthly signals have just turned negative, joining the otherwise universal sell chorus. The daily indicators remain bearish, which the “other” indicators still confirm. Can the perverse market action continue?"obviously we can't guarantee it won't. But our personal money is committed to the short side, and some feeble fundamental razzle-dazzle (gas has come down, and they're getting people out of New Orleans at a snail's pace rather than a turtle pace) isn't quite enough to make us change course.
