        <![CDATA[<p><b>Market Summary</b></p><p><b>David Chojnacki</b> <i>S1F Market Technician</i></p><p>The Market resumed the prior session's sell-off at the open, but it did not take long for the indices to reverse. Buyers stepped in and the major indices began a slow rise, erasing most of the early losses. By the final bell, the averages were only slightly in the red on above average volume. At the close, the DJIA was down 12.6 points, the S&amp;P gave up 4.8 points, and the Nadsdaq100 slipped 7.6 points. Breadth was negative, 1.5 to 1, on heavy volume. RSI's moved down to the lower 60's, continuing to remove some of the near term over-bought condition. ROC(10)'s remain in positive territory, but declined for all three major indices. The DJIA and S&amp;P developed 'Doji's' in the session, a candlestick reversal signal. The Nasdaq100 began to exhibit some weakness in near term technicals, as its MACD slipped just below signal. It also was unable to close above the 3000 level. The S&amp;P did close at 1650 which would keep its short term bias to the upside. The S&amp;P has pulled back from the top of its trading channel(1675) and a 3% pullback would find support near 1625. A break below this level and we find support at 1597, which would be nearly a 5% correction. The VIX continued its move to the upside, but closed well off its high of the day (14.94), which was above its 200D-SMA of 14.90. The VIX closed at 14.07, up just 0.25 of a point. The 10 year has moved above 2%. The S&amp;P near term resistance is now at 1662 and 1675. Near term support is now at 1650 and 1637. The Nasdaq100 has near term support at 2988 and 2975. Near term upside resistance is now at 3000 and 3012. Japan recovered somewhat over-night, but Europe still a little weak. Futures are pointing to a lower open before the extended holiday week-end.</p><p><b>Major Economic Reports Today</b></p><p><b>Durable Orders-8:30am</b></p><p><b>DISCLAIMER LANGUAGE -ALL PRICES NOTED IN THIS PUBLICATION ARE AS OF THE CLOSE ON TRADING PRIOR TO</b></p><p><b>TODAY'S DATE, UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED</b></p><p><i>This publication is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation to buy any securities mentioned herein.

S1F specializes in agency ETF/ETP, equities, and options trade execution. On the ETF/ETP end, S1F may work with the ETF issuers to understand their products more thoroughly and how they can complement an investor's portfolio.</i></p><p><i>Data sources include ETF Database, ETFTrends.com, IndexUniverse.com, Google Finance, and Bloomberg data and at times other data sources are utilized. Leveraged, Inverse &amp; Leveraged Inverse Conclusions and Risks 1) Leveraged, Inverse, and Leveraged Inverse (L&amp;LI) ETFs generally capture a high percentage of their expected daily returns, particularly on a net asset value basis. 2) L&amp;LI ETFs are not appropriate for all investors. However, we believe they can be appropriate tools for some investors looking to make short-term tactical trades if they perceive a high likelihood of a strong market move occurring in a relatively short time period. In strong trending markets, being on the right side of the &quot;trade&quot; with L or LI ETFs can lead to very strong returns. 3) Investors should not expect these ETFs to deliver total returns linked to their benchmarks over any period other than daily. The effects of compounding and the daily re-leveraging or de-leveraging that occurs with L&amp;LI</i></p><p><i>ETFs can lead to unexpected results over the long term. As a result, we believe longer-term investors should consider regularly rebalancing positions. 4) Trendless markets, particularly those with a high level of volatility, can lead to substantial relative underperformance of L&amp;LI ETFs. 2) Leveraged and Leveraged Inverse (L&amp;LI) ETFs typically utilize futures and equity swap agreements. The use of these derivative instruments increases risk and enhances the possibility of tracking error.</i></p><p><i>Relative to traditional ETFs, leveraged, inverse and leveraged inverse ETFs typically have higher costs and lower tax efficiency. 3) The effects of compounding can lead to significant deviations from traditional benchmarks over longer time periods. For example, if $100,000 is invested in an index that increases in value by 10% on day one and then decreases in value</i> <i>by 10% on day two, the investment will be worth $110,000 at the end of day one and $99,000 after day two. However, the value of a security that doubles the daily performance of the index would be worth $120,000 on day one and $96,000 after day two. Thus, the index is down 1% after two days, a doubling of which would be down 2%. However, the security attempting to double the return of the index is down 4%. Investors should consider carefully the potential impact over longer periods. MLP and MLP ETF Risks Individual MLPs are publicly traded partnerships that have unique risks related to their structure. These include, but are not limited to, their reliance on the capital</i> <i>markets to fund growth, adverse ruling on the current tax treatment of distributions (typically mostly tax deferred), and commodity volume risk.</i></p><p><i>For tax purposes, MLP ETFs are taxed as C corporations and will be obligated to pay federal and state corporate income taxes on their taxable income, unlike traditional ETFs, which are structured as registered investment companies. These ETFs are likely to exhibit tracking error relative to their index as a result of accounting for deferred tax assets or liabilities (see funds' prospectuses). The potential tax benefits from investing in MLPs depend on their being treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes and, if the MLP is deemed to be a corporation, then its income would be subject to federal taxation at the entity level, reducing the amount of cash available for distribution to the fund which could result in a reduction of the fund's value. MLP funds accrue deferred income taxes for future tax liabilities associated with the portion of MLP distributions considered to be a tax-deferred return of capital and for any net operating gains as well as capital appreciation of its investments; this deferred tax liability is reflected in the daily NAV; and, as a result, the MLP fund's after-tax performance could differ significantly from the underlying assets even if the pre-tax performance is closely tracked. Commodity ETF Risks Commodity ETFs may be subject to greater volatility than traditional</i> <i>ETFs and can be affected by increased volatility of commodities prices or indexes as well as changes in supply-and-demand relationships, interest rates, monetary and other governmental policies, or factors affecting a particular sector or commodity. Currency ETF Risks Investments in currency involve additional special risks, such as credit risk and interest rate fluctuations. ETFs mentioned at times may have material exposure to small cap and/or international securities that may have higher levels of risk and volatility than other ETFs.</i></p>]]>

However, we believe they can be appropriate tools for some investors looking to make short-term tactical trades if they perceive a high likelihood of a strong market move occurring in a relatively short time period. In strong trending markets, being on the right side of the &quot;trade&quot; with L or LI ETFs can lead to very strong returns. 3) Investors should not expect these ETFs to deliver total returns linked to their benchmarks over any period other than daily.

For example, if $100,000 is invested in an index that increases in value by 10% on day one and then decreases in value</i> <i>by 10% on day two, the investment will be worth $110,000 at the end of day one and $99,000 after day two. However, the value of a security that doubles the daily performance of the index would be worth $120,000 on day one and $96,000 after day two. Thus, the index is down 1% after two days, a doubling of which would be down 2%. However, the security attempting to double the return of the index is down 4%. Investors should consider carefully the potential impact over longer periods. MLP and MLP ETF Risks Individual MLPs are publicly traded partnerships that have unique risks related to their structure. These include, but are not limited to, their reliance on the capital</i> <i>markets to fund growth, adverse ruling on the current tax treatment of distributions (typically mostly tax deferred), and commodity volume risk.</i></p><p><i>For tax purposes, MLP ETFs are taxed as C corporations and will be obligated to pay federal and state corporate income taxes on their taxable income, unlike traditional ETFs, which are structured as registered investment companies. These ETFs are likely to exhibit tracking error relative to their index as a result of accounting for deferred tax assets or liabilities (see funds' prospectuses). The potential tax benefits from investing in MLPs depend on their being treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes and, if the MLP is deemed to be a corporation, then its income would be subject to federal taxation at the entity level, reducing the amount of cash available for distribution to the fund which could result in a reduction of the fund's value. MLP funds accrue deferred income taxes for future tax liabilities associated with the portion of MLP distributions considered to be a tax-deferred return of capital and for any net operating gains as well as capital appreciation of its investments; this deferred tax liability is reflected in the daily NAV; and, as a result, the MLP fund's after-tax performance could differ significantly from the underlying assets even if the pre-tax performance is closely tracked. Commodity ETF Risks Commodity ETFs may be subject to greater volatility than traditional</i> <i>ETFs and can be affected by increased volatility of commodities prices or indexes as well as changes in supply-and-demand relationships, interest rates, monetary and other governmental policies, or factors affecting a particular sector or commodity. Currency ETF Risks Investments in currency involve additional special risks, such as credit risk and interest rate fluctuations.

        <![CDATA[<p><b>Market Summary</b></p><p><b>David Chojnacki</b> <i>S1F Market Technician</i></p><p>With little news to drive the Market, the indices got off to what has become a familiar sight on Monday's: weak volume and little price change. The major averages hit their highs near mid-day and then a slow sell-off into the bell left the indices with small losses. At the close, the DJIA gave up 19 points, the S&amp;P slipped just 1.1 point, and the Nadsdaq100 was off just 7.9 points. Breadth was positive, 1.4 to 1, on weak volume. RSI's slipped in the session, but remained in the low 70's. ROC(10)'s remain in positive territory, but declined in the session. The indices were at new highs during the session but a PM sell-off, left the major averages in the red at the close. All three major indices developed either a 'Doji' or 'evening star', candlesticks which signal either a reversal or topping formation. MACD's remain comfortably above signal. We have had almost a parabolic move to the upside since April 19th, nearly a month now. In the rally since November the 3% pullbacks were about six weeks apart. If the cycle continues we have about two more weeks before a consolidation. The over-bought condition suggests that it may be sooner. The S&amp;P is near the top of its channel and a 3% consolidation would take it back near 1625. A larger pullback would find support near 1597. The VIX moved up 4.5%, to close at 13.02. The S&amp;P near term resistance is now at 1673-75 and 1688. Near term support is now at 1662 and 1650. The Nasdaq100 has near term support at 3012 and 3000, with upside resistance at 3025 and 3037. <b>IWM</b>(small Caps) closed at a new-all-time high of 99.21. The <b>GLD</b>(gold) bounced off support and was up over 3%. Europe is slightly lower in early morning trade.

        <![CDATA[<p><b>Market Summary</b></p><p><b>David Chojnacki</b> <i>S1F Market Technician</i></p><p>With little news to drive the Market, the indices got off to what has become a familiar sight on Monday's: weak volume and little price change. The major averages hit their highs near mid-day and then a slow sell-off into the bell left the indices with small losses. At the close, the DJIA gave up 19 points, the S&amp;P slipped just 1.1 point, and the Nadsdaq100 was off just 7.9 points. Breadth was positive, 1.4 to 1, on weak volume. RSI's slipped in the session, but remained in the low 70's. ROC(10)'s remain in positive territory, but declined in the session. The indices were at new highs during the session but a PM sell-off, left the major averages in the red at the close. All three major indices developed either a 'Doji' or 'evening star', candlesticks which signal either a reversal or topping formation. MACD's remain comfortably above signal. We have had almost a parabolic move to the upside since April 19th, nearly a month now. In the rally since November the 3% pullbacks were about six weeks apart. If the cycle continues we have about two more weeks before a consolidation. The over-bought condition suggests that it may be sooner. The S&amp;P is near the top of its channel and a 3% consolidation would take it back near 1625. A larger pullback would find support near 1597. The VIX moved up 4.5%, to close at 13.02. The S&amp;P near term resistance is now at 1673-75 and 1688. Near term support is now at 1662 and 1650. The Nasdaq100 has near term support at 3012 and 3000, with upside resistance at 3025 and 3037. <b>IWM</b>(small Caps) closed at a new-all-time high of 99.21. The <b>GLD</b>(gold) bounced off support and was up over 3%. Europe is slightly lower in early morning trade.

        <![CDATA[<p><b>Market Summary</b></p><p><b>David Chojnacki</b> <i>S1F Market Technician</i></p><p>After a fairly strong opening to the upside, the major averages settled into a sideways trade for most of the session. Near 2 PM a strong buy program commenced and the indices closed at their highs of the session. With options expiring, the volume picked-up and was above average. The DJIA and S&amp;P closed at new all-time highs and the Nasdaq100 closed at over 12 year highs. At the close on Friday, the DJIA was up 0.8%, and the S&amp;P and Nasdaq100 gained 1%. Breadth was decidedly positive, 2.3 to 1, on heavy volume. For the week, the DJIA gained 1.5%, the S&amp;P added 2%, and the Nasdaq100, up 1.5%. Year to date the DJIA is up 17.12%, the Nasdaq100 gaining 13.8%, and the S&amp;P up 16.9%. RSI's remain bullish and have moved into over-bought territory, with RSI's in the low to mid 70's. Once again, we saw economic reports during the week in the form of Housing Starts and Claims Numbers which continued to show a weak economy. This has not phased investors as they continue to chase equities. Investors want to be in the U.S. dollar and dollar denominated equities. Until multiples are extended, we expect this to continue. The ROC(10's) are positive and rising and the ADX once again exhibits strong momentum. The VIX continues at low levels, closing at 12.45 on Friday, not showing any signs of fear.</p><p><b>Trading Trends</b></p><p><b>David Chojnacki</b> <i>S1F Market Technician</i></p><p>The bias for the long term continues to the upside as technicals remain strong. The major indices continued their move to new highs. Short term technicals also continued to strengthen last week and suggest that there is more of an upside move to the up leg which began in November of 2012. There have been three nearly 3% corrections in this move. At some point we will see a bigger pullback or consolidation, but those signals are not showing up in the technicals. Near term we are clearly over-bought at these levels and may be close to at least a 3% consolidation. Economic reports are light this week, the highlight being the FOMC minutes on Wednesday.

However, we believe they can be appropriate tools for some investors looking to make short-term tactical trades if they perceive a high likelihood of a strong market move occurring in a relatively short time period. In strong trending markets, being on the right side of the &quot;trade&quot; with L or LI ETFs can lead to very strong returns. 3) Investors should not expect these ETFs to deliver total returns linked to their benchmarks over any period other than daily. The effects of compounding and the daily re-leveraging or de-leveraging that occurs with L&amp;LI</i></p><p><i>ETFs can lead to unexpected results over the long term. As a result, we believe longer-term investors should consider regularly rebalancing positions. 4) Trendless markets, particularly those with a high level of volatility, can lead to substantial relative underperformance of L&amp;LI ETFs. 2) Leveraged and Leveraged Inverse (L&amp;LI) ETFs typically utilize futures and equity swap agreements. The use of these derivative instruments increases risk and enhances the possibility of tracking error.</i></p><p><i>Relative to traditional ETFs, leveraged, inverse and leveraged inverse ETFs typically have higher costs and lower tax efficiency. 3) The effects of compounding can lead to significant deviations from traditional benchmarks over longer time periods. For example, if $100,000 is invested in an index that increases in value by 10% on day one and then decreases in value</i> <i>by 10% on day two, the investment will be worth $110,000 at the end of day one and $99,000 after day two. However, the value of a security that doubles the daily performance of the index would be worth $120,000 on day one and $96,000 after day two. Thus, the index is down 1% after two days, a doubling of which would be down 2%. However, the security attempting to double the return of the index is down 4%. Investors should consider carefully the potential impact over longer periods. MLP and MLP ETF Risks Individual MLPs are publicly traded partnerships that have unique risks related to their structure. These include, but are not limited to, their reliance on the capital</i> <i>markets to fund growth, adverse ruling on the current tax treatment of distributions (typically mostly tax deferred), and commodity volume risk.</i></p><p><i>For tax purposes, MLP ETFs are taxed as C corporations and will be obligated to pay federal and state corporate income taxes on their taxable income, unlike traditional ETFs, which are structured as registered investment companies. These ETFs are likely to exhibit tracking error relative to their index as a result of accounting for deferred tax assets or liabilities (see funds' prospectuses). The potential tax benefits from investing in MLPs depend on their being treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes and, if the MLP is deemed to be a corporation, then its income would be subject to federal taxation at the entity level, reducing the amount of cash available for distribution to the fund which could result in a reduction of the fund's value. MLP funds accrue deferred income taxes for future tax liabilities associated with the portion of MLP distributions considered to be a tax-deferred return of capital and for any net operating gains as well as capital appreciation of its investments; this deferred tax liability is reflected in the daily NAV; and, as a result, the MLP fund's after-tax performance could differ significantly from the underlying assets even if the pre-tax performance is closely tracked. Commodity ETF Risks Commodity ETFs may be subject to greater volatility than traditional</i> <i>ETFs and can be affected by increased volatility of commodities prices or indexes as well as changes in supply-and-demand relationships, interest rates, monetary and other governmental policies, or factors affecting a particular sector or commodity. Currency ETF Risks Investments in currency involve additional special risks, such as credit risk and interest rate fluctuations. ETFs mentioned at times may have material exposure to small cap and/or international securities that may have higher levels of risk and volatility than other ETFs.</i></p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p><b>Market Summary</b></p><p><b>David Chojnacki</b> <i>S1F Market Technician</i></p><p>The weak Economic reports, before the bell, lead to a lethargic open to the Market. It was mostly sideways action through the mid-afternoon hours. Good earnings from CSCO the night before moved Techs into positive territory, but even they couldn't hold it for the entire session. In the last two hours, the major indices began a widespread sell-off and maintained that momentum into the close. At the close, the DJIA lost 42 points, the S&amp;P slipped 8.3 points, and the Nadsdaq100 was off just 3.2 points. Breadth was negative, 1.5 to 1, on above average volume. RSI's slipped in the session, but remained right near the 70 level. ROC(10)'s remain in positive territory, however, declined for the second straight session. It was the first losing session in five, as all major indices pulled back slightly. The S&amp;P did hold the 1650 level and the Nasdaq100 closed just a bit below 3000. If they maintain those levels at the open, the bias will be to the upside. Moving below at the opening bell and we may see some downside today. The <b>GLD</b>(gold) continued its slide, but closed off its lows. We see some near term support for the GLD at 130.51. The VIX moved up 2%, to close at 13.07. The S&amp;P near term resistance remains at 1662 and 1675. Near term support exists at 1650 and 1637. The Nasdaq100 closed a few tenths below 3000 and we look to see if it could hold that level for upside bias. Look for support below at 2988 and 2975. Near term resistance sets up as 3005 and 3012. We have Options expiration today, which may provide some price volatility. A couple key economic reports today(see above). Europe is up slightly in early morning trade.
