S&P SPDRS (AMEX: SPY) Pulls Back From All Time Highs Says Market Timer Frank Kollar
May 10, 2007 (FinancialWire) (By Frank Kollar)
The exchange-traded fund S&P Depositary Receipts SPDRs (AMEX: SPY) rallied Wednesday after the Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged. Intra-day, prices reached just shy of the SPDRs all time closing high made back in March 2000. Is this the top?
Wednesday’s close at $151.16 was well below those intra-day highs that reached $152.82. But it would not be wise to step in front of the freight train that is the current stock market. A close above $153.56, the all time closing highs, would be wildly bullish. A pullback here would likely not last that long considering the market’s momentum. Stay with the trend.
