    My Comments

    1) The Rydex market timer is buying the dip as the Rydex bullish and leveraged investor isabout 2.5 x greater than the bearish and leveraged investor

    2) Another distribution day was registered

    3) The market action is anything but healthy

    4) The QQQ is at support and below its 50 day moving average

    5) The SPY has broken support and is below the 50 day moving average

    6) Short term there is no edge

    7) The intermediate term remains bearish for prices as sentiment remains stubbornly bullish
