agree, the lack of breadth particularly bothered me. The ratio of =
advancing / declining stocks, and their volume, also bothered me =
considerably.

News and short covering created a one day rally, but until "M" starts =
trading closer to fundamentals and a recovering economy, I see little =
reason to believe that we have yet to find the bottom.

In analyzing yesterday's rally, I would make the following points for =
your consideration:

 1.  A good deal of short covering occurred.  I know that I covered most =
of my short positions by 9:15 CDT.
 2.  A fear from a lot of people that they did not want to get left =
missing the bottom fueled the buying in mostly large cap stocks.=20
 3.  The market was one in which all the technical indicators showed a =
major oversold position.

Yet, the breadth of the market was not heavily in favor of the upside.

And the number of stocks rated A in the Acc/Dis ratings for IBD actually =
fell to an all-time low hitting 106 yesterday.

For the moment, this looks just like another relief rally in a bear =
market. =20

Relief rallies rarely increase more than 15-20% from their low points so =
a lot of energy has already by consumed.

For me, I will be very cautious in this market.  You, of course, will =
make your own decisions.
