Stock Market Solid Upside Follow-through / Stock-Markets / Stock Index Trading

The indices had a strong follow-through session today to yesterday's late rally. The day started out with a strong move higher, as the indices reached 1614 on the NDX and 1006 on the SPX.

Time of Truth for Financial Stocks XLF / Stock-Markets / Articles
By: Mike_Paulenoff
The time of truth for the Financial Select Sector ETF (NYSE: XLF), which is bumping up against key near-term resistance at 14.30-14.42. If that level is hurdled, it likely will unleash additional strength that propels prices to new highs above 14.60 – towards my optimal target at 15.00/30. Conversely, inability of the XLF to hurdle and sustain above 14.30-14.42 followed by a decline that breaks 14.00 will argue that the larger corrective process off of the Aug 6th high at 14.60 remains viable and points to 13.20-13.00 prior to completion.

By: MoneyWeek

Markets across the world took a tumble yesterday, with the FTSE 100 ending down 1.5% at 4,645, and the Dow Jones off by nearly 200 points. So why the big slide? As with most such market moves, there were plenty of stories you could pin the fall on after the fact.
Japan exited recession, but the second quarter GDP figures weren’t as good as hoped. Economic data in the States disappointed on Friday. The Chinese stock market is slipping back into bear market territory. Take your pick.
