Today might be the start of the new downhill push… The technical analyists will say that we look to be in a clear “head and shoulders” pattern. They are saying that if the S&P breaks down through 880 that the trend will be confirmed and we will go down further.
Not totally unusual for July/August, especially energy stocks. I took profits in June, and am waiting for pullback to get back in, for late fall run-up (I hope).
S&P at 954, what happened to the “downhill push?” Skineej, how much more upside potential do you think we have, or is the inevitable head and shoulders breakdown just delayed?

Long Enuff
I have no idea. Obviously, the "head and shoulders" didn't play out. I am still anticipating some kind of pull back or correction though eventually. I feel that the triple 6 was the bottom for 2009 at least, but still think that we will test around 750-800 eventually though. Who knows. In the meantime, I am still buying stocks that I think are good values for the long term, especially if they pay dividends. My latest two purchases were ERF, PWE and I am planning on holding them "forever"...
