Bullish Percent Indicator: 30 May 2025

May 31, 2025 By Lowell Herr 9 Comments

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 13 June, 2025

June 18, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

US equities attempted to test the all-time high at ~6100 but volume was not strong and there was not enough conviction to break through this important resistance level with trend and momentum indicators (MACD and RSI) sending mixed signals:
