| Summary for Week Ending 8th Feb 2002 A bit of a mixture this week, with the Dow holding its own, to the NASDAQ running downhill. Enron still manages to stay in the headlines and 'Dodgy' accounting practices are now the target of investigators, not just for the failed Enron but any company that appears to have 'irregular' practices. Every now and again, the market need to take a shower and remove the built up grime. It did so after 1987 and again in 1998 with the Asian crisis. Perhaps its bathtime again. As in the previous weeks, we are still following the weekly Swing Charts. I had expected the all three markets to hold above their respective lows however only the Dow has managed to do so, although in a very unconvincing manner. The NASDAQ this week simply maintained the bearish sentiment and slowly melted and the S&P showed some resilience later in the week, but this too has been less that convincing. On the Weekly Chart, the Dow has formed an inside Day and both the S&P and NASDAQ formed lower lows, so for these two the Swing is still down. Looking at daily Swing Charts, both the NASDAQ and the S&P are forming Lower Highs and lower lows, maintaining the short term bearish outlook, and the Dow has formed a Higher High and Lower Low...giving us an uncertain market. The Charts this week highlight the Price Retracement levels for the previous major upswing. Also highlighted this week is the Square of 144 with various scales applied to each market ( Dow 20, S&P 2, NASDAQ 10). Tuesday Feb 12 is 144 days from the Sept low, and is worth watching as the Jan 7th High also came in on a vibration of 144 ( 75% - 108 days ). Again the major retracement levels are the price areas to watch. DJIA See Chart S&P 500 See Chart NASDAQ See Chart |
