DJIA 5/9/08 STOCK MARKET TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
The Dow closes lower by 0.94% on Friday, down 2.38% WTD and -3.91% YTD. The short term uptrend is correcting after finding resistance May-2. The Dow theory assumes that the index will continue to move in the direction of the uptrend until contrary evidence presents itself. Expect the stock average to find support at or near the short term trendline. Consider this the next critical level to keep an eye on.
