Ready To Run?

Not a whole lot has changed since my Weekend report. This is a week with a Fed Mtg on Wednesday, and I dont usually expect a lot of action until the deed is done.  My weekend report covered  a couple of different scenarios going into the Fed Mtg, so lets see how things played out on Monday.

Lets check out the action...

SPX -  The SPX , DJIA, and NASDAQ broke out today, but the BIIB, IWM & IWC  lagged seriously.
