Dow Jones


Since the sell-off on February 27th, the Dow has rallied 1,222 points in 8 weeks gaining 10% with just 7 down-days. With RSI and stochastics signalling overbought conditions and price action remaining bounded beneath the upper treadline; a pullback seems due. Short towards the uptrend support. Worth noting the seasonal investment strategy known by the saying “Sell in May and go away” is approaching, in which stocks are sold at the start of May and the proceeds held in bonds or a deposit account; stocks are bought again in the autumn, typically around the end of October.
