Let's Not Overcomplicate It

Data is flying around and when that happens there is noise.

To remedy this, just look at the price action of the stock market as a whole.

Of course, there are multiple ways to do even this, but I like- short term- the 10 day and 50 day moving average.

As of now the S&P500 has a 10 day moving average BELOW the 50 day moving average. This is a sign of short-term weakness.

While it doesn't mean doom and gloom, it does mean that price action favors the downside.

So, we hold cash right now, check for especially weak positions to cull and wait until we get the 10-day crossing above the 50 day.

At a time when the financial news flow is rapid fire, it's a way to bring it back to the basics, price action.
