In Greek Mythology, anyone who looks at Medusa turns to stone. Has our long-in-the-tooth Rallysaurus caught her gaze?

The dinosaur, now perhaps a rock, freezes with his head up high and his mouth ajar as if roaring in frustration.

Rallysaurus’ first foray with Medusa came after the Fed raised the interest rate .25% last December. By the end of February, our Rallysaurus returned to skin and bones.

Since then, through Brexit, threats of another rate rise, political uncertainty, crises in the Middle East, terror attacks both in the US and abroad, Deutsche Bank and Wells Fargo, our Rallysaurus toughs it out.

So, are we facing a market set in stone?

Or, will Medusa’s curse be averted?

To begin this week, Nasdaq and the Russell 2000 traded within Friday’s trading range. Nasdaq sits close to its 16-year high.

The Russell 2000 maintains a bullish phase with a topping candle. The S&P 500 and the Dow, both in warning phases, weakened further but not enough to boost volatility or fear in the market.

First Solar’s (FSLR) stock price fell while crude oil prices rallied more. Interest rates firmed and gold and silver declined.

The Modern Family closed in the red except for Transportation. Biotechnology eked out a gain of one cent.

Transportation, Retail, Regional Banks and Biotechnology-like Nasdaq, traded within Friday’s trading range.

Semiconductors briefly made a new all-time high early on but could not sustain it. We are now waiting to see if SMH closing on the lows with better than average daily volume, turns out as a reversal top.

Conventional wisdom says do not sell a dull market. I will give the market the benefit of the doubt. With the inside trading days in two of the key indices and 5/6 of the Modern Family sectors, our Rallysaurus is not quite yet set in stone.

S&P 500 (SPY) Better if can clear/close over 217. Pivotal point 215 then 212 rock bottom support
