Momentum clearly slowed on Tuesday in many stocks and ETFs which was not unexpected in context on Monday’s breakout and large gains.  SPY and DIA inch to a new high close but IWM consolidates after Monday’s massive gain.  XLF, XLV and XLY are still neutral but poised at resistance for horizontal resistance breakout.  XLU formed a doji/bullish harami pausing its three-day selloff.
