A list called “The Top Tens” voted for the “Best Female Rock Singers of All Time.”

In no way meant as a personal endorsement, their number one pick is Amy Lee of Evanescence. 

I chose her to headline today’s Daily.

Why?

If we consider her a rock goddess, then her song, My Immortal speaks to her sadness of losing a beloved mortal. Side note-$391 million views on YouTube.

Hence today, the market mimics art.

Some instruments are rock goddesses.

Others are fallible mortals.

While others are near death.

The S&P 500 and NASDAQ (especially Netflix) fit the rock goddess status.

Along with those indices, Semiconductors-already known in some circles as Wonder Woman-clearly fits the goddess bill.

Who then are the mere mortals and who are the ones at risk of dying?

Granddad Russell 2000 fluctuates between rock star and fallible mortal.

In a range, we still wait for IWM to either gap up above 143 and not look back or gap lower and break under 138.00

Similarly, Big Brother Biotechnology (IBB) failed to take out 320 but holds firm above critical support.

Our Trans Transportation ETF (IYT) could, with one heavy metal hit, turn into a rock goddess.

If IYT opens above 175.75 and runs, we can evoke Amy Lee’s song Bring Me to Life

On the other hand, should sellers could come out and take IYT down to 172, Amy’s got that covered too with her song, Going Under.

Prodigal Son Regional Banks (KRE) has yet to demonstrate rock god qualities. Instead, we place that sector in the fallible mortal category.

Resuscitation (Annie) Granny Retail (XRT) tries hard to hold over 40.00. Alas, Granny Retail has a real risk of dying if she cannot maintain that level.

What makes Amy Lee dubbed “The Queen of Rock” is her ability to sound strong yet sing effortlessly.

And there’s the rub for the market. The instruments that are strong remain so effortlessly.
