Feb 7th – Flush And Then A Fresh Start?

The recent flush down of the markets is viewed by some as alarming and even terrifying, but in a bull market,  it's often just a necessary flush of excess bullishness and a re-set to a fresh start.  It takes time to see exactly how this will play out,  but let's take a look at the recent flush down and discuss those  possibilities...

DOW JONES #1 - WEEKLY - I was just pointing out this week that we haven't really seen a 2 day sell off in a long time, but we were due for a DCL ( Sell off).  Well, the Dow dropped 666 points on Friday ( No, I don't ready ANYTHING into  that )  🙂
