9/21/15

Index futures opened lower Sunday night and dipped below Friday's session lows, then recovered into Monday's a.m. session for a nice rally until Hillary Clinton made a statement regarding Turing Pharmaceuticals raising the price of a drug. This dragged the Biotech's down along with the major indexes.  The Russell and the Nasdaq made lower lows versus the S&P and Dow, due to having more exposure to biotech.  This is usually a bearish sign however it is mostly due to the amount of the Russell's and Nasdaq's exposure to biotech.  Considering IBB fell into a vM target price, and it's Hillary's plan, which is likely extremely flawed, IBB could recover, or even rip back and the other indexes will follow.  Although IBB closed down 4.5% near its lows, the major indexes recovered well off their low by the end of day for gains, except for the Russell.  They all closed above their 10ma's, a very positive sign.  The S&P was up .46%, Nasdaq .04%, and the Dow up 125 pt's for a .77% gain.  The Russell closed down .24%.


IBB fell below its 200ma.  It  hit a vM to 305.55 on Hilary's bio-gate, and triggered a vM to 273.47, it also formed a shorter term vM to 305.33.  Watch for Hilary's plan tomorrow and see if IBB recovers or shows more weakness.
