The index gave up all gains made in the recent rally (which ran between 10/3/19 and 2/23/20) and some more. It’s trading almost -15% from the 52 week high.
The S&P 500 posted -11.5% loss and the NASDAQ posted around -10.5% loss for the week. The S&P 500 lost 200 DMA support, but the NASDAQ successfully tested that key support line. The Dow Jones and S&P 500 still signaling that the selloff is not over, yet. But the NASDAQ gave a small hint that the sell off got bottomed out.
Having said that, just stay put on the sidelines wait for a new rally to start. Some old leaders may drop off from the radar and new leaders will show up. So, be patience and wait for the correction to run the course and don’t get sandwiched in the stampede period.
