Today was a typical blow-off day in a major correction. With stocks collapsing early morning shortly after 10:00 AM and then plunging for a second time over the lunch hour, a lot of remaining investors would have been shaken out of their positions which volumes does show. However the noon plunge ended up being the day’s low and buyers raced back to push the SPX index back over the 200 day moving average by the close. A positive end for the SPX and a bigger rally in the NASDAQ saw huge intraday losses fully recovered with the NASDAQ closing up 86 points. Perhaps even more dramatic the Dow Jones index collapsed over 1100 points by noon hour and ended the day up 99 points.
Following a day like Monday, it is worthwhile to review the Market Breadth Indicators to see what is happening in the market with the majority of stocks.
