Wow, what a great month so far with the local market as measured by the ASX 200 index up a tad over 12 per cent at the time of writing. The ongoing release of good news on the vaccine front continuing along with state government opening borders as well as adding to the stimulus party only to be topped off last night with a rally in US markets after the Trump administration began to help the Biden transition team. The 4 hour chart below tells the recent bullish story.

This chart from the 2009 high puts into a different perspective of just how good this month has been for stocks.

Evolution moved down through our stop level and we sold Tuesday.

With the big four banks leading the market higher Westpac looks to have completed a bottoming pattern.

Eclipx looks set to move above the resistance zone.

Emeco could be nearly finished forming a basing pattern and we bought a small parcel today for the educational portfolio.

Most stocks in the lithium space have been on a tear the last 2 weeks including Pilbara Minerals.

Navigator Global is close to a break above previous resistance.

Downer has just broken up to a six month high and we bought some for the educational portfolio today and we sold out of Carsales.
