What do you think about WTS?

[Runner]

I show WTS is in the Industrial Equip & Components group. I like CRDN the most in that group right now.

What do you think about WLT?

Peanuts, WLT look good as it is in an up trend. That wide bar a few days ago has me concerned. I’m also just not that crazy about getting long at this time. I’ve noticed a lot of wide bars but not sure if this was due to the extended holidays. I personally would not open a position in WLT

Commodities have been taking a good butt kicking as of late. Here is SILVER. it is in trouble. Might be worth a play on the short side on a bounce..

A few stocks in the group

SSRI PASS SIL SLW

Steel has fallen out of a base and so for now my bias is bear for this group

I think tech is looking interesting. I'll wait on the P/B's as I'm not a break out trader. It also appears as if the Nasadaq is trying to regain leadership. I like the prospects of this chart and will look within the the groups for possible longs

strength

over the last 2 weeks:

I am seeing continued strength in Financials and Healthcare

I am seeing new strength in Real Estate, Retail, and Basic Materials

I am seeing re-newed strength in Steel

I am seeing increasing weakness in Oil and Natural Gas, and Transportation (that's odd)

[Runner]

I hear you Peanuts. I’ve been bull in Healthcare and what I find interesting is thus far the tech heavy Nasdaq is the only one breaking out of the range. I still think follow through is key. I have not paid much attention to steel or oil. I’m going to put oil back on watch..

Take a look at small/mid caps and notice they have not yet cleared their ranges yet..
