Market Action
A stress is a sharp drop early in an uptrend that shakes the trees. How the market and key stocks close afterwards gives us information about the health of the market.
Today the Qs dropped over 2% intraday but closed near the high of the range.
Bottom line is that today’s lows are key. We need to hold above them and keep showing constructive action.
