Over the last few weeks, we had discussed the excessive deviation to the market above the 200-dma, which suggested that a reversal of that extension was probable. The question now is whether Tom’s view is correct?

Are the markets set up for “monster second-half rally,” or is this just the continuation of the topping process that began last year.
