The very strong A/D numbers last Friday pushed the A/D line to new highs, surpassing the August highs. This is positive and indicates that the market will follow the A/D line higher. The short-term A/D indicators were moderately overbought with last week’s close, so the decline on Tuesday was not a surprise. The S&P has good support in the 1072-1080 area, which I would expect to hold on a further decline. Once above 1105, there is resistance at 1120 and then 1131.
