The Bottom Line

The period of seasonal outperformance by the TSX Composite Index came to an end last week. Contributions into RRSPs until February 28th are a major reason for outperformance relative to
the S&P 500 Index.

Technical breakdowns below intermediate support last week by the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500 Index and NASDAQ Composite Index will require time for technical repair before moving higher into the traditional spring rally period. Broadly based U.S. equity indices have a history of moving lower into mid-March. Concern about reaching an agreement on the U.S. Federal Debt by March 14th adds to short term uncertainties. History is repeating. Patience by traders will be rewarded.
