Nasdaq getting close

The Nasdaq Comp' saw a net daily gain of 33pts (0.7%) to 5011..  mere 121pts (2.4%) from breaking the March 2000 tech bubble high of 5132. A monthly close in the 5200s would be hyper bullish for the broader market, and be suggestive of a straight run to the 6000s by year end.

Summary

New historic highs were hit today in the R2K and NYSE Comp'. The rest of the indexes - including the Nasdaq Comp', look set to follow in the near term.

Any monthly close in the 5200s would be a powerfully bullish signal, and bode for continued upside.. at least into Sept/Oct.
