The market continues its march into new high territory last week. The NASDAQ Composite closed above the dotcom bubble closing high at 5092.08, and less than 50 points from the all time high of 5132.52. The tech heavy NASDAQ 100 did not make a new all time closing high but it did closed with another multi-years high at 4536.78. It is still some distance away from the dotcom bubble closing high of 4704.73.
In the large cap, the SP500 closed with a new all time closing high at 2117.69 on Friday along with the NYSE Composite. The NYA closed with a new all time closing high at 11,192.92, just about 1.5 points above previous closing high that was made in the prior session.
The indices that did not tagged or closed with a new high are the DJIA, DJT and the Russell 2000, but they all closed positive for the week.
Although the market might seem extended to the upside and look a bit tire, the market breadth still indicating higher level for the market.

Whether there will be a minor correction before another round of new high for the market or an undisrupted continuation of the current upward move from the market is anyone’s guess. The market message is new high is yet to come, but it never tell us when and how it will get there. Therefore, we always need to be on the defensive and continue to listen to the market as it speaks, and ignore the naysayers and the talking heads.
