TIME TO SHORT TECH SHARES?

The current Nasdaq Composite rally is at an �inflection point� much in the same manner it was during the week of July 14th as prices slid to new yearly lows. The simple indicator we are looking at is the 60-week moving average, which in the past has an enviable record as an inflection point. If prices breakout above this level, then higher prices will develop; however, if the 60-wma acts as resistance as we believe it shall given the declining 200-wma�then a larger decline will be underway. Thus, if one is inclined to be short technology shares�this is certainly the �best risk-adjusted� time in which to do so.
