A torrent of positive news on Monday, September 13—faster growth forecast in Europe, a lax deadline for banks to meet capital requirements under Basel III, and better than expected manufacturing growth out of China—all pushed the market upward to open the week. And in my opinion increased the odds that stocks will continue to climb until they take out of the top of the range on the Standard & Poor’s 500 index at 1130. And that would be a very positive signal.

The breathtaking jump on September 1 and the continued positive market direction since then have taken the market up so far so fast that a little profit-taking would be only to be expected here.

By gaining 23.58 points on Friday, the NASDAQ Composite closed above not just its 200-day moving average but also its July high of 2249.84.The next test is the June high at 2310.
