It was a bearish week for US equity indexes, with net weekly declines ranging from -3.0% (Trans), -2.8% (Nasdaq comp'), -2.5% (R2K), -2.4% (SPX), -2.1% (Dow) to -2.0% (NYSE comp'). Near term outlook leans bullish.

Lets take our regular look at six of the main US indexes

Summary

All six US equity indexes were net lower for the week.

The Transports lead the way lower, with the NYSE comp' most resilient.

More broadly, all six US equity indexes are trading under their respective monthly 10MA, and have increasingly negative momentum. By definition, all six indexes are m/t bearish.
