TIme of Truth for XLF

The time of truth for the Financial Select Sector ETF (NYSE: XLF), which is bumping up against key near-term resistance at 14.30-14.42. If that level is hurdled, it likely will unleash additional strength that propels prices to new highs above 14.60 – towards my optimal target at 15.00/30. Conversely, inability of the XLF to hurdle and sustain above 14.30-14.42 followed by a decline that breaks 14.00 will argue that the larger corrective process off of the Aug 6th high at 14.60 remains viable and points to 13.20-13.00 prior to completion.
