Zeev,
Usually by the time the NASDAQ has logged 3 breakdowns in a single decline (today was the third), the DJIA and S&P 500 follow suit. While the S&P 500 failed its 12/9 rally attempt on 1/20 and the DJIA failed it today, neither of these have logged a breakdown.
The last bear didn't look this strange. I wonder if the big boys are dressing him in a masquerade costume so as not to scare off the party guests?
