But semiconductors were the firm winner on the day; a 5%+ gain on the day pushed it out of its trading range and above its 50-day MA (bullish for the Nasdaq and Nasdaq 100 to do likewise). April highs are next.

In summary, bulls in the ascendancy after what looked to be a strong swing to bears yesterday. Tomorrow’s action should hold the upper part of today’s range to keep the pressure on the bears.
