The most notable thing about the charts is that price on the S&P 500 closed under the 50 dma today. The question is, will it stick? The DWCPF remains in better shape, but it too has been under pressure. Momentum took a turn lower.



Breadth technically flipped bearish, but it's not a strong signal as yet.

As I said earlier today, the smart money isn't usually wrong for very long. Normally, they get right within 3 days, but we're well past that point. Up to this point, technical damage has been very limited, but now we see the S&P 500 testing the 50 dma and closing under that key average. I'm still not bearish, but this market may challenge weak bulls.

Let's see how the bulls respond to the S&P 500 support being tested. I am remaining bullish given that is where the smart money is and the fact that the DWCPF remains in decent shape despite the weakness.
