Breakout for Pharmaceutical HOLDRS
Trust (NYSE: PPH) Says Market Timer Frank Kollar
January 14, 2010 (FinancialWire) (By Frank Kollar)
Shares of the Pharmaceutical HOLDRS Trust (NYSE: PPH have
reached their highest level since the highs in their bear
market rally back on August 11, 2008 at $67.97.
Only one cent below this level at the close on Wednesday,
January 13, Pharmaceutical HOLDRS is poised to break out.
This widely traded ETF lost some 43% in the bear market
and bottomed in March 2009. The rally since then has finally
reached the 61.8% retracement level. This is critical resistance
for Pharmaceutical HOLDRS.
A decisive close above $67.97 would likely lead to a run
for the January 11, 2008 highs at $77.82, a 14.4% gain
from Wednesday’s close.
Traders should be watching Pharmaceutical HOLDRS for any
bearish reversal patterns during the next few days which
could indicate a correction has begun. The 61.8% level
is the do-or-die level for most stock and ETF advances.
