Technimental’s Kevin Lane notes: “We would expect the market to try and retest recent highs given these oversold readings. We will see if internals re-assert themselves or stay weakened, relative to their recent high readings. Lower readings on a test would set up for a classic breadth divergence and lead to a bigger correction than what we recently witnessed.” We agree.
