Quick Run Down - Monday, 12/10/09

Flat day today. XAO, down 9 points, -0.2%, finished at 4745.5 after being up in the first hour of trade at 4789.1

Strong industry sectors today were two defensive sectors.
  • Utilities +1.4%
  • Telecommunications +1.1%
The weakest industry sector was the Financial Sector, down -1.1%.

Breadth was mildly positive. Advance/Decline Ratio: 1.16
Advancing Volume/Declining Volume Ratio: 1.035

Among the 50 Leaders, stocks making new 20 Day Highs/Lows: 7/0
This is a strong reading - but should be treated with caution as most of those new highs were intra-day, then fell back. So it could indicate a weakening rather than a strengthening trend.

That's all for now. I'll post a chart about Gold later on. The GOLD ETF is starting to look interesting - but too early to be sure.
