I monitor maybe 200-300 market bellwethers in USA and internationally.
At the moment USA healthcare and gold are indicating to be a defensive plays for the overall market and are weak (market bullish).
Copper, Iron ore, coal, mining, oil generally are strongish today, which is bullish.
Market is hesitant but not bearish, climbing a wall of worry.
If the shorts capitulate because of increased losses that will cause the meltup.
A meltup will be very painful, as holding shorts will get toasted, dumb money entering will get fried on the possible sudden reversal.
