Stocks were higher on Monday, but most indices closed off their highs, enough that there's a possible negative reversal day visible on the charts. The Dow closed up 19-points and small caps led the way again.

The SPY (S&P 500 / C-fund) made a new high yesterday and has been moving practically straight up for weeks so there is fear of a pullback or at the least some consolidation. The reversal day might indicate that today's action could see some weakness.

The Wilshire 4500 may be backing off from a reversal day and a double top. Not a major concern, but possible short-term weakness.

The Transportation index also reversed near some rising resistance. Again, could just be time for a healthy pause.

Bonds were down slightly yesterday and the AGG is trying to hang onto that old resistance line - turned support. That's not a great looking formation, and bonds may need to see a pullback in stocks to keep them above that support.
