The Market opened weak, but quickly moved to the upside on some positive economic news.  The indices held the moderate gains into the close.   At the close, the DJIA was up 31 points, the S&P500 gained 0.5%, and the Nasdaq100 up 0.8%.  Breadth was positive, 1.3 to 1, on another above average volume session.  All three major indices closed at new multi-year highs.  The DJIA and S&P500, are now joined by the Nasdaq100  in being slightly over bought short term.   The DJIA near term support remains at 11658 and 11635.   Near term resistance is now at 11722 and 11734.  The S&P500 closed just above the 1275 resistance level, and we will look to see if it can hold that level.   Near term support is now 1275 and 1262.  Upside resistance is now 1288 and 1300.  The Nasdaq100’s moderate move to the upside put the MACD above signal and displayed continued strength as the leading index.  Near term support is now 2262 and 2250.  Resistance has become 2275 and 2288.  Financials lead the move to the upside as they continue to gain strength.  The VIX lost 2 % to close at 17.02. Volatility remains relatively low.
