All the funds are aggressively strong.
The price increases suggested that Mood would have a larger jump. However volume was running a little low. And the Volatility index was already about as low as it could go.

Hope that means it's going up again.

Is it just me, or does this Strength chart look like that 820-pound wild hog killed in Alabama?
Mood is tracking with price. Volume and volatility have little influence. A sign of complacency?

The stock funds lost strength, and the bond fund found it.
Mood is politely disagreeing with price movement. The cause? Volatility (nervousness index) dipped lower. And volume (price movement pressure) is under its 50-day moving average.

The only fund up, (both in price and strength), was small caps.
Meandering and mundane movements, but still up-trending.

Two indicators signaling a strong stock market: 1- Bonds prices (F fund) going down. 2- Small Caps (S fund) outperforming Large Caps (C fund). Both happened today.
Mood and C fund price continue trending up. Making it difficult for anyone to say the Trump rally is over.

Afternoon Fed talk caused a decline in the dollar, which caused a rally in the I fund. The C fund also benefited. Large cap multinationals derive nearly half of their revenues from foreign markets. Bond prices were up also. The S fund pulled back some (money had to come from somewhere).
The Mood line went below the C fund price line on Wednesday. The two other times that has happened, (since early May), it indicated an over-sold condition and initiated an up-leg. Note: interpretation of a sequence is “In the eye of the beholder”.

The S fund excelled on Mon and Tue, but gave it all back (plus a little more) on Wed and Thu.
On a personal note: I visualized the S fund strength going negative just before noon, so I submitted an IFT to G. I had no idea it would go that much negative. If I did I may have waited one more day for a DCB. I will see how that would have turned out today.
The Mood's descent was magnified by higher volume. The last time volume was this high, on a down-day was June 12, which was a prelude to a small pull-back.

It appears that all funds are losing strength.

The Mood line continues down.

The I fund had the most strength yesterday, last week, last month. All year as a matter fact. There’s no denying the weakness in the dollar caused most of that. Only thing is, when will that change?
C fund price line and Mood line are trending down.

A little relief rally for everything. But the S fund is still struggling.
