Could it be? The SPY is below its 5 and 10-day moving averages, thought at this point the 20 still seems like asking a lot as a downside target ahead ($97.90). On the ETF Rewind real-time movers list, I see UMM (Major Metro Housing -12.5%) is the big loser with VXX (Short-Term VIX +4.0%) in the winner’s circle. Cumulative Tick, Advance-Decline and Down Volume all look quite bleak, and traditional MACD has finally rolled over. Will it be kiss and go from here into FOMC day, or a multi-day correction?
