Closing Brief

The main indexes closed moderately mixed, with the sp -5pts @ 1762. The two leaders - Trans/R2K, closed -0.5% and -0.4% respectively. Near term trend is a touch weak, but market should comfortably hold the low 1730s..before the next wave higher.

Summary

*eyes on TSLA, earnings at the close.
---

For the bears..a typically frustrating day. Early declines of 0.4% barely held for an hour..and even the Dow swung from -110 to +10 or so.
-

I realise it annoys some of you out there - least of all, coming from me, but..really.. how can anyone tout any significant declines in the remainder of this year?

UPDATE 4.28pm

TSLA earnings were okay. EPS of 12 cents vs 10 expected.
Car sales were projected to be a touch lower than some were looking for.

TSLA is -10% in AH.

A break <153..will open up my target zone of 110/100..within a few weeks..perhaps days.

Certainly though, the Q3 earnings were 'not bad'.
