Expect volatility when you come to the market over the next week. As we approach the end of the calendar year, there is not much news to be expected. Except for the FED meeting December 12-13, there isn’t much to expect from overseas. This could cause sharp volatility in the US markets, and possibly around the globe.

Markets will react to the news and decide if they are likely to make new highs or turn negative.

Play to market movements and pay attention to volumes is the strategy for this week. At this point, sharp movements without volumes are not possible. The market must show volume and move in the same direction. They will continue to be dominated by smallcap and midcap space. Trade with caution.
