Weekly Commentary
36 Breakouts Confirm Rally is Strong As the table of confirmed breakouts below shows, there were a near record number of breakouts this week, many of which maintained substantial gains until Friday's close. The cup and handle pattern delivered the most with 22 breakouts followed by the Volatility Squeeze with 11. The week started slowly but was given new energy on Wednesday by Fed Chairman Powell who said "The case for raising rates has weakened somewhat" and left interest rates unchanged. The result was two successive accumulation days before Friday saw some profit taking, despite a very strong labor market report. Although the NASDAQ lagged the S&P 500 this week, it remains the strongest of the the three major indexes year to date.
