Last weekend, in my Market Forecast, I said, "VIX has sank back below 24, which could signal the intention to rally. We’ll have to see if the market can continue to push higher and stay above SPX 1100. If SPX 1100 is cleared, SPX should retest the 1120 level. Miners went up quite a bit [...]

Last weekend, in my Market Forecast, I wrote: "For the new week, things may be a bit tricky. First of all, it’s options expiration week, so some "maneuvers" are to be expected. The market is definitely trying to draw a bottom. But, after charging higher 2 days in a row, we may see some indecisiveness [...]
