Subj : Market Action To : All From : Paul Rogers Date : Tue Dec 30 2003 05:30 pm


The DJIA got its bell rung this morning with the release of
disappointing numbers for consumer confidence, new home sales, and
Midwest manufacturing.  It didn't recover, but the S&P got a boost from
the NASDAQ and closed even.  Volume fell some, to 22% below average.
Well, half a day tomorrow I guess and we can call this one a wrap.

I'll be working on my "Tracking the Market" web page, posting my charts
for the past two years and recapping my analysis for the year.

Timing Signals:  I don't use or recommend timing signals, but they're
fun to watch.  If I did though, well, I might use something like this.
(Be warned!!  It tends to whipsaw around signal points!)

Last Signal: BUY        Date:  11/24/03 S&P:    1052
Winner or Loser:  tbd                   By:     tbd
