SPY | RIMM | LEH | IBM | HAL | FLR | DRYS | DOW

Another close above 1400 today - a meaningless milestone. The S&P has been chopping through this level since April 28th so it doesn't seem to be as significant as once thought. While the roundedness of 1400 may get a lot of attention, perhaps the trendlines shown below will prove to be more significant.


Here are some more thoughts...









A lot of nice setups but some will require patience. I would wait for a small pullback in DRYS, for example, before going long. Same with RIMM (especially with what's happening in after hours). These are up 5.5% and 7% today respectively, so while the setup still looks nice it's probably not the best point for entry. DOW is also getting overbought (2 day RSI of 93.5). I'll have some specific trade suggestions as this week unfolds.
