The upbeat action continues.  Volume was up, breadth was better.  Key big-cap tech such as Apple broke to new 52wk high.  The NASDAQ also broke out from a cup and handle pattern.  The rare earth sector remained hot.  

 Historically, the second trading day of a new year also has a good record before positive seasonality began to taper off.  We will also have 4th quarter earnings season soon.   I tend to think the bulls got a little too excited today.  Will the fund managers that deferred tax gains until 2011 began to book some profits?
