The bulls turned early losses into 1-to-2 percent gains on the major indices today. Those gains have created some minor improvements on the trend table (see below). The one problem with today's rally was that volume dried up. This was one of the lightest volume days of the month.

$RUT - Next week's high? You know something we don't? Just kidding. Enjoy your trading day.
um, I was just checking to see if anybody was actually reading what I write. :-) Of course that should say "last week's high". That's what happens when i drink before doing my nightly posts.
