Downward Pressure Continues

While Friday had a big beautiful rally, it was not enough to flip my indicators positive. Though there was a significant bounce, there were also lower lows and (mostly) lower closes on the week.

Globally, it was a sell-fest. While the US rally was on Friday, all the other world markets had closed. We'll see how much of a lift the globe gets overnight.

Commodities were also hit hard even as the US dollar finished in the middle of the two-week range. Energy and Industrial Metals had a tough week. Gold Miners looked better.

One of the interesting trends this week was the marijuana names trying to bounce in the middle of the week as the overall market was selling off. We can keep an eye on it. There is a focus towards edibles in the marijuana space. How that resolves will be interesting, as the investors have been living in a house of pain for the last year. We broke to new 52-week lows last week, as I mentioned in the article, but this week the bounce looks like an interesting place to get back onboard. Scott Redler, a technical analyst, has a specific way to play these reversals, which is setting up in one of his classic trade strategies. Worth watching...
