Get Your Pathetic On


Driven lower for all of the opening ten minutes of trading today, then decidedly turned around...


SPX 5-min

$NYAD
$NAAD

All of 128 more NYSE-listed issues and 92 NASDAQ-listed issues advanced than declined today? There is a word summarizing this result. It's pathetic.

But, really, we are presented with but another demonstration of distribution ... and the prospect top is in.

(Note to Jon Najarian: you want a "target" for the coming collapse Bob Prechter spoke about today on Fast Money? Look over to the left under "Things I Believe.")
