5/26/2025 Markets were down for the week, as the Indices became very over bought. The stronger Indices were quickly back up near the highs and FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) was back, The News cycle quickly flipped from MAX FEAR (Smart Money Buys) in April, to high Greed (Smart Money Takes Profits).
However, for the short term the Leaders are quickly back down in the daily Green Zones (probably too late to Sell). So probably a bounce back up soon. This could be a Wave IV down here (Green Zone), and then a Wave V back up (see chart above).
We Buy the strongest Leaders that make new highs, on pull-backs. So follow the Green Line System and you should continue to win more than you lose. SEE WATCH LIST
