Some technical comments on the market: Note: To see the charts in the text email newsletter, click on the internetstockreport.com story link at the top of the newsletter.
The Dow (first chart) remains firmly in a downtrend. 10,030-10,050 could provide support, but 9940 looks like a much better support at this point. 10,220 is the level to beat to the upside. The S&P (second chart) has support at 1098 and then the 1074-1085 level comes into play. Resistance is 1105 and 1123. The Nasdaq (third chart) held 1725 support; if that goes, 1696-1715 is next. Resistance is 1750 and then 1770-1780. The S&P 100 (fourth chart) and Microsoft (fifth chart) are flirting with major breakdowns here and must bounce.
