Halved

Growth stocks are regrouping with the number of stocks qualifying for our screen roughly halved in this broader market pullback.

This is when the deck gets reshuffled. It’s a litmus test. The stronger of our top stocks will resume trends while the weak stagnate or drop off. Likely upside candidates will be found below as trade strong above their 50 and 200-day MA’s.

No telling what the Fall will bring. It’s all speculation. Our job is to be ready to make the best of whatever hand we’re dealt.

Bias stays at Neutral.
