August 31, 2009 Stock Market Recap

August 31, 2009 Stock Market Recap: "

The day started of fin promising fashion for the bears as the indices gapped down in sympathy with a big drop in the Chinese market. But the bears were not able to capitalize on that early weakness. The market just meandered sideways for the rest of the session. There was minimal technical damage done to the indices today. I've made some minor downgrades to the short-term trends in the trend table but I don't think the bulls need to sweat as long as the March trendlines hold. Absent any big news I'm not expecting much out of the market this week, ahead of Labor Day, except possibly on Friday after the payroll data.
