January 27 Recap: An Inside Day

by Michael on January 27, 2009

I don’t have much to say different from what I said last night. The indices stayed within yesterday’s ranges, making inside days. That shows a lack of conviction which I assume is due to the Fed decision tomorrow. We did get some strength after-hours on news of the so-called “bad bank” plan. BofA (BAC) was up 8% after-hours so the financials will be worth focusing on tomorrow. Many will be gapping right into resistance so they may be good fade opportunities…
