Daily Market Commentary: Low Volume Recovery

Yesterday's decline was undone by a fresh round of low volume buying. Large Caps were again the main beneficiaries but all indices posted gains.

The Russell 2000 started the day below its 200-day MA but managed to do enough to close above this key long term moving average.  Today's low is a good place for a stop if looking at a longer term buy-play.  There was a resistance breakout in the MACD trigger line.


The Nasdaq is setting itself up for a channel breakout with the MACD trigger 'buy' and a pending On-Balance-Volume 'buy'.


The S&P managed to recover the most ground to Monday's losses.  The 20-day MA held as support with the next upside target the 50-day MA.


For Wednesday, look to Large Caps to press their gains and drag Tech indices and Small Caps along for the ride.
