Volume Analysis | Flash Market Update – 3.18.24
Downside S&P 500 Capital Weighted outflows led inflows $53.5 to $44.7 billion on above-average volume. Both the generals (QQQ- Nasdaq 100 ETF), the troops (IWM Russell 2000 ETF) were down -1.12% and -2.18% on the week. Meanwhile, the Spyder (SPY S&P 500 ETF) closed down just -0.38% to remain completely inside last week’s “Doji Star” range. However, IWM broke and closed beneath its prior week’s “Doji Star” low.
Despite the price drop, both Capital Weighted Volume and Dollar Volume reached all-time highs intra-week. However, Friday’s downside capital flows represented approximately 85% of flows on very high volume. Meanwhile, advancing market breadth also took a bit of a breather, finishing lower after making a new yearly high earlier in the week. Overall, last week theme of a pause seems to being playing out to script.
Grace and peace my friends,
