Rare as a dodo in 2013 are any form of long losing streaks; recall how long we entire early part of the year without so much as 3 down days in the DJIA. Yesterday’s reversal late in the day pushed stocks into the red again and we now have the first 5 day losing streak of the year. After being extremely overbought last Wednesday after the Fed surprise announcement the indexes have now worked off that condition. As you can see in the chart below the S&P has now retraced 38.2% of the September rally.
