Dow Jones still range bound but could break out to the upside.
With the uptrend European Indices looking more and more stretched after outperforming US maybe investors are shifting their focus more to US Equities
S&P 500 bounced from short-term steep rising trendline. 4,110 support still holds. Us Equities are set for higher levels and S&P 500 is looking at 4,308 resistance which is also 1.618 projection of the December correction.

Semiconductors and Technology seem to be the main sectors lifting Nasdaq higher.
