what to do now
As the market has moved up significantly over the past few weeks, many leaders have extended from buy points and moving averages. Investors could make new purchases or add to their stock, but they could also just sit still. This is why it’s a good idea to start increasing your exposure from your follow-through date.
Don’t buy extended stocks. Keep your watchlist updated. You should see a significant increase in sales over the past week or two. Be sure to cast a wide net so you don’t miss any establishments or transfers in industrial stocks, housing stocks, travel stocks, etc.
