XLF Fails at Resistance After Buffet Bounce

Thursday's announcement that Warren Buffet will invest $5 billion in Bank of America (BAC) sent the Finance SPDR (XLF) sharply higher on the open. XLF opened above 13 and surged above 13.2 in the morning. These gains quickly evaporated as sellers returned. This failure reinforces resistance from the mid August high. Follow through above this level is needed before taking any surge too seriously.
