Aug 30, 2013 The Nasdaq is above its five-week MMA at 3597 but below pivot at 3663.

The yield on the US Treasury 10-Year note held my weekly pivot at 2.836% on Monday and traded as low as 2.703% overnight going into Wednesday on the Syrian flight to quality. On Thursday this yield rose again to a retest of the weekly pivot at 2.836% before declining again. My monthly pivot is 2.601% with the 200-week SMA at 2.543%. The rise in yield is overdone on its weekly chart. On Thursday, the US capital market focus shifted from Syria to U.S. economic data as Q2 GDP was revised upward to 2.5% in the preliminary reading up from 1.7% in the advanced reading.
