Turnover was slightly lower across the board, preventing the Nasdaq from registering a bullish accumulation day. In the NYSE, total volume was 10 percent lighter than the previous day's level.
Although yesterday resulted in a bearish distribution day on the Nasdaq Composite, volume still limped in below its 50-day average level, so it was not a massive wave of selling.
Although the major indices technically remain in their nearly week-long sideways consolidation patterns, yesterday was the second consecutive day that the broad market rallied late in the day to close near session highs.
The main stock market indexes have drifted in a tight, sideways range for the past four sessions. Since volume during this period has been light, it is a sign the bulls are merely sitting on the sidelines, rather than selling into strength of the recent move.
