Conclusion: At least the short term tradable trend is confirmed bearish.

AMZN/AAPL, which are on down trend, rebounded during indice breaking down, together with GOOG being relatively strong intraday. So NDX was much stronger than SPX, which is obvious indice mutually inconfirmative and implies further down trend at the current beginning stage.

The market was consolidating with SPX (+1 - +5) and NDX (-4 - +5) before 2:20pm ET while almost all leader stocks and all major sectors were in red, yet SPX and NDX could be in green which was because semiconductor sector was upgraded with CMCSA and NVDA gapping big up to major resistance. They supported indice temporarily and would go down to fill the gap later on.

Today, it's the first time that all major sectors and leading stocks (except GOOG/CSCO) went down. Hence, Ben Bernanke reported "bad news" about economy recovery at the great timing to give a reason to explain the sell-off, which is eagerly expected and needed by most improfessional market players. So short positions are considered as clairvoyant for the prescheduled timing of Bernanke speech.

Down trend, at least in the short term, is being prudently viewed as confirmed.

ORCL, as a flag, showed the down trend direction.

SPX touched 20SMA/integral point 1100 and closed at 1103 which is however below the consolidating resistance 1106.
NDX closed at 20SMA 1784.

Upon indice breaking down 20SMA, it would accelerate the down trend which would be a good timing to accumulate short positions.

No position adjustments today.
