3 Stock Market Charts Signaling Near-Term Caution

After reviewing the recent price action and several charts of key stock market indices, I’m taking a near-term cautious stance on the stock market. That is, until the following concerns resolve themselves.

In particular, it appears that the small cap Russell 2000 Index (INDEXRUSSELL:RUT) and Mid- Cap Index ETF (NYSEARCA:MDY) are failing again.

I was looking for recent breakouts on these two charts to extend higher, but that isn’t happening.  They have both failed to see follow through and are fading.

The PowerShares Nasdaq 100 ETF (NASDAQ:QQQ) is also vulnerable after fulfilling upside move based on ABC pullback. I talked about this in my newsletter. Glaring daily momentum divergences here for the QQQ’s.
