BOTTOM LINE: The Portfolio finished higher today on gains in my Internet longs, Medical longs and Computer longs. I did not trade, thus leaving the Portfolio 100% net long. The tone of the market was positive as the advance/decline line finished higher, almost every sector rose and volume was light. Measures of investor anxiety were mostly lower into the close. Overall, today's market performance was bullish. The S&P 500 closed back above its 50-day moving average, which many had pointed to as a substantial point of resistance after last week's sharp gains. Moreover, the ISE Sentiment Index made another all-time low of 36.0 this morning, a very depressed level, which is a big positive. The 10-year also maintained last week's gains, which was also a positive. The main negative for today was the fact that commodity stocks paced the advance. However, a number of market-leading growth stocks finished with nice gains, as well. Have a great July 4th holiday! Thanks for reading.
