Dow Catches a Chill From Falling So Fast
| March 5, 2009 | Posted by admin under Stocks & Stock Market Analysis |
On Wednesday after the market closed, everyone was talking about a market rally (from the reports I saw/read). Up 130 points was just the move that was the result of restored confidence, but not only that, it was going to trigger further rallying.

The market rallied today up more than 230 points on the Dow Jones Index to close around 7,350. It is possible that the break below 7,500 was a bear trap. But with confirmation from so many indexes, it is more unlikely. Rallies occur in bear markets all the time, it is whether the upward pressure…
