US equity markets started the week quietly but showed more volatility towards the end of the week closing up modestly from last week’s close:
Although we closed slightly above resistance (and the prior high) at ~4400 we are still within the 2SD boundary of the downtrend channel – so I am not ready to call a change in trend just yet – we’ll wait and see what next week brings and whether Santa is loading up his sleigh.

Checking the current rotation graphs:
we see the demise of Commodities, Gold and the zero-based short-term treasury note market with little obvious strength anywhere. Moving to the recommendation sheet:

and that will be it for this week.
