Don't Argue With The Generals In July Until…

July often sets up conditions for late summer rallies, as well as significant tops.

As a result, July can be a frustrating and confusing period. Last week was a good example of why.

I'll start with the bearish case…

#1) The market's price action coming into last week set up the market indexes for a weak Monday, and weekend reports of rapidly increasing (and breakthrough cases) of the Covid Delta variant provided the news for a "news follows the markets Monday plunge."

In other words, the market was beginning to roll over before Monday, but it needed a more identifiable reason to make it obvious.

#2) Mid-July is a seasonal high time frame, so the markets' weakness coming into last Monday furthered the bear's case for being cautious (if not down-right bearish) during last Monday's sell-off.

#3) Our Risk Gauges were bearish, and several of the general stock indexes had bearish momentum readings suggesting breaks of support would lead to further declines.

With such a bearish list of conditions, why didn't the market follow through to the downside, and how could you have trusted the rally would continue?
