S&P 500 4357,04 +49,50.
The 4th quarter started on a strong note with solid breadth (2888 stocks up, 1318 down). Heavy buying materialized as measured by our capitulation index. It will be interesting to observe if Friday’s activity was a mere reflex rally or could be sustained. We still are of the opinion that the 200 days moving average may be tested during the fall. Options trading settled on a fairly neutral note.
