Silver, iShares Silver Trust ETF (SLV) price fell below its lows of the previous 2 years on 5/15/13, thereby reconfirming its preexisting major bearish trend.
U.S. dollar ETF (UUP) price rose above its highs of the previous 9 months on 5/15/13, thereby reconfirming its preexisting major bullish trend.
iShares MSCI BRIC Fund (BKF) Relative Strength Ratio (BKF/SPY) fell below the lows of the previous 4 years on 5/15/13, reconfirming its major downtrend.
Emerging Markets Stocks ETF (EEM) Relative Strength Ratio (EEM/SPY) fell below the lows of the previous 4 years on 5/15/13, reconfirming its major downtrend.

U.S. stocks rose to a peak at 12:48 p.m. ET. A last hour bounce recovered a large fraction of an early afternoon dip, allowing most of the stock indexes to close above all previous highs–again.
The S&P 500 Composite Index (SPX: 1,658.78) finished up 0.51%, the Nasdaq Composite Index rose 0.26%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced by 0.40%, and the Dow Jones Transportation Average rose 0.84%.
NYSE total volume rose 7% to a level 11% above its 200-day SMA. Rising volume on a price rise confirms that price rise, while falling volume on a price rise may indicate diminishing buying power behind that advance.
Breadth was positive, with 2,235 Advances and 1,810 Declines, and with 2,535 million shares Advancing Stock Volume compared to 1,372 million Declining Stock Volume.
Some, but not all, daily stock market price momentum oscillators continue to diverge bearishly, as they have for many weeks and months already, even as most of the stock price indexes rose to higher highs. Some oscillators have remained below their highs of January, 2013, as well as below their 2011-2012 highs. For example, RSI(14) based on the S&P 500 Index peaked at 74.46 on 1/29/13 but was only able to rise to 73.34 on 5/15/13 when the S&P 500 closed at a much higher high. In addition, the percentage of stocks in the S&P 500 trading above their 50-day SMAs and the number of daily net new highs on the NYSE failed to rise to higher highs. Other momentum oscillators recently confirmed higher price highs, however, so the evidence appears mixed at this time. Momentum oscillator divergences are important because they are leading indicators of price.
There is no debate at all about the stock market trend. It is more than obvious to everyone. My interpretation of the technical indicators has been that the medium-term stock market uptrend evident since November may have been overdone, and the stock market seemed overdue for a significant downside correction. Based on normal market behavior observed over many years past, that interpretation still seems reasonable. With the Fed providing massive artificial stimulus by buying securities at an unprecedented pace of $85 billion of a month, the bullish majority of investors have been questioning whether past normal standards of market behavior apply. Massive money printing out of thin air can’t continue forever, however, and the markets may be vulnerable once investors begin to anticipate the end of inflationary monetary policy.
