Powershares Nasdaq 100 ETF (NASDAQ: QQQQ) Takes 3% Hit Says Market Timer Frank Kollar
May 14, 2009 (FinancialWire) (By Frank Kollar)
Shares of the Powershares Nasdaq 100 ETF (NASDAQ: QQQQ) lost 3% on Wednesday May 13 as the week long selloff picked up speed.
Even with the selling, the Qs are ahead some 29% since retesting their bear market lows in early March, but the question remains, when does the selling end?
The Qs are now below their 200-day moving average but remain well above their 50-day moving average. The 50-day average is at $32.26, another 2.4% lower. The 50% retracement for the March-May rally is down at $30.60.
Probable support is at the 50-day moving average if we do not reverse before it is reached. If that support is broken though, expect the declines to reach down to the the $30.60 level in coming weeks.
