There was a bearish engulfing candle on MASSIVE volume in the semiconductors area ($DJUSSC), and this group has been BY FAR the biggest single reason why our major indices have advanced as much as they have.  Check out this chart:<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a NASTY bearish engulfing candle on the semiconductor chart.  And the reversal occurred on the second largest volume of the past 6 months.  I believe today\u2019s open marked a very significant top on the DJUSSC.  That doesn\u2019t mean the overall market rally has ended.  But I do expect to see other areas of the market lead the next advance.  At a minimum, I\u2019d expect at least short-term consolidation or selling among semiconductor stocks.  That\u2019s not a bad thing, it\u2019s a necessary thing.  Continuing higher in parabolic fashion would only end in a much more substantial pullback.<\/p>\n<p>But huge rallies do not always end in despair.  In fact, most just keep on truckin\u2019!<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s check to see how the rally off the October 27th low measures up against other periods over the past few decades, first on the S&amp;P 500 and then on the semiconductors index ($DJUSSC):<\/p>\n<p><strong>S&amp;P 500:<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The blue-dotted vertical lines coincide with every 90-day period in which the S&amp;P 500 gains 25% or more.  Prior to the current 25% gain in 90 days, you can see that it\u2019s only been achieved a handful of other times over the past 30 years.  The black arrows tell you that every one of these 25% rallies occurred AFTER a significant bear market bottom or correction low.  This is the importance of calling major market bottoms, because the biggest gains take place on the heels of these bottoms.<\/p>\n<p>Next, check out what happens to the S&amp;P 500 after these 25%+ gains are made.  <strong><em>It keeps going higher!  <\/em><\/strong>We are in a secular bull market.  If you have been waiting to get into this rally, I\u2019d consider using any short-term weakness to do so.  That\u2019s my opinion, of course.

Do with it what you will.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Semiconductors ($DJUSSC):<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Here, the blue-dotted vertical lines coincide with 90-day periods where the DJUSSC gains at least 50%.  Again, this has only happened a handful of times.  Right now, the last 90 days has resulted in a gain in the DJUSSC of more than 75%, which eclipses any other semiconductor rally over the past 30 years.  The group needs a break.<\/p>\n<p>Should semiconductors stall here, I\u2019m still very encouraged by the small cap asset class.  On Monday, I\u2019ll be analyzing a tiny software company that this week broke out of a cup with handle pattern on crazy high volume.  It potentially could gain 40-50% over the next few months to its pattern measurement.
