Stocks Are Fighting an Uphill Battle – Serge fills in for Sam Collins

Today Is Judgment Day for the Nasdaq-100 (QQQ)

The Nasdaq-100 — as represented by the PowerShares QQQ Trust, Series 1 (ETF) (NASDAQ:QQQ) — rallied strongly over the past week and a half, which last week was aided by earnings reports from Google Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) and Netflix, Inc.(NASDAQ:NFLX) that led to major rallies in those two stocks.

DIA: The Dow Jones Is on the Verge of a Big Move

The Dow Jones Industrial Average — which we like to trade via the SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (NYSEARCA:DIA) — is made up of just 30 stocks.
