USA
The Dow has fallen again to 10094, on higher volume. The up-trend is still intact.  
The Nasdaq closed down 0.77% in a volatile day's trading.
 
4th Quarter earnings
The recovery isn't here yet. Investors still have to face dismal 4th quarter earnings reports. (more)
 
Australia - ASX
The All Ords closed down at 3355 on stronger volume. The 20-Day Slow Stochastic is still in overbought territory.
 

 
PBL [PBL]
Is PBL being set up for a sale? (more)
 
Computershare
Weak international trading conditions pull down earnings. (more)
 




Conclusion
Short-term: Let's see how low the correction goes. Poor US performance may dampen local enthusiasm.
Long-term trades: Wait for a correction on the secondary cycle.
