Weekly Commentary
Recent Recovery Creates More Breakout Opportunities

The NASDAQ broke through the 50 day resistance level on Monday and our trend indicators all turned positive on Wednesday, October  20. The recovery has created more cup and handle pattern breakout opportunities as more stocks have qualified to be included on the cup and handle watchlist. For example, on Tuesday of this week there were 53 stocks on the CWH watchlist compared with just 16 on September 27. The recovery has also delivered more actual CWH breakouts with 17 this week compared to just 8, 3 weeks ago.

The strength of the recovery is attributed to most companies that have reported Q3 earnings having beaten analysts estimates and a rotation out of growth stocks into value stocks. As a consequence, both the DJI and S&P 500 have set new highs while the NASDAQ, which has experienced consolidation in tech stocks, is 2% below its September 7 high. If the Democrats can reach agreement on their social agenda and pass that along with the infrastructure bill, then there should be ample fiscal stimulus to push the markets higher.
