Divergences in New Highs and Lows
Note the deterioration in new 20-day highs minus lows in the last two weeks (pink line above), even as the S&P 500 Index (blue line) has been making bull market highs.I noted earlier that there were significant divergences occurring within and across stock markets. Those are showing up in the new high/low figures. At this juncture, we're not yet seeing a significant expansion of stocks registering fresh 20-day lows. Rather, we're seeing a narrowing of the rally, such that fewer stocks are making new highs.An expansion of lows would suggest a more serious potential breakdown of the market uptrend.
