The Dow (first chart below) looks like it may be ready for another assault on 12,743.2. A close at that level or higher would confirm the Transports' (second chart) higher high and generate a Dow Theory bull signal, reversing November's bear signal and signaling that the worst of the credit crunch may be over.
