Pre-Market Analysis 8/7

After Tuesday's rally in a bearish market, I have to say, I did not expect the market to finish in positive region yesterday:

Dow 11656.07 +0.35%
S&P 1289.19 +0.34%
Comp 2378.37 +1.21%
RUT 725.90 +0.67%

Following yesterday's restrained profit taking, I'm thinking that there should be more today, plus short covering. Hence, I'm bullish, albeit only mildly, for today.

Dow and S&P are nearing their resistance level and are likely to trade in a very small range today. RUT daily chart shows 2 days that have closed above its resistance, breaking out of what looks like a bullish wedge to me. So, I'm bullish on RUT today.

Oil and the other commodities remain down.

Do I want to talk about finance and housing?

Nah.
