I've been expanding my datasets on my chart software, and have added the FTSE AIM UK Top 50 which might be of interest to some of the UK traders on here. The relative performance table is in order of strength compared to the S&P 500 as usual. So for example Iofina (IOF.L) is the strongest stock and Quindell Portfolio (QPP.L) is the weakest.

The S&P 500 divided by the Continuous Commodity Index chart continues it’s early Stage 2 run with another 4.74% gain this month, and continues to highlight the long term rotation out of commodities and back into stocks.

The S&P 500 Cumulative P&F Breakouts - Breakdowns chart made another new high this week, but the pace was slower than before as the breakdowns began to pick up a little. However, the totals for the month of May show that the bulls were firmly in control with 202 breakouts and 27 breakdowns, but the last week or so has seen a big drop off in the amount of breakouts.

Attached is the updated Advance Decline Breadth Charts, including the cumulative AD line, momentum index, cumulative AD volume line, 10 Day AD oscillator, NYSE Volume Advancing / Volume Declining Ratio and the McClellan Oscillator and Summation Index.
Note the breakdowns in the 10 Day Advance Decline Oscillator and the McClellan Oscillator to their lowest levels since November 2012.

Attached is the updated volatility breadth charts, of which two moving average breadth volatility charts are back in negative territory, but the slower bullish percent volatility chart is still positive.

Attached is the NYSE long, medium and short term moving average breadth charts and the NYSE Bullish Percent Index.
This week saw a number of changes in the moving average breadth charts across the board, with the NYSE long, medium and short term gauges all having status changes. The long and medium term chart reversed to a column of Os and are close to the key 70% level, but haven't moved below it as yet, and so are currently on bull correction status. However, a move below 70% would change that to Bear Alert.
The short term moving average breadth charts saw some double bottom breakdowns with the NYSE and DOW 30 Percentage of Stocks above their 50 day Moving Averages charts both moving to Bear Confirmed status, while the S&P 500, Nasdaq 100 both dropped below 70% and so moved to Bear Alert status.
So we've seen a further deterioration from last week with the short term charts now fairly bearish and the long and medium term charts starting to feel the effects as well. Below is the updated table and the major charts.
For those that prefer the line charts, the relative performance versus the S&P 500 closed below the zero line (52 week MA) as you can see at the bottom of the charts which for example on the 150 Day MA chart in the last year or so has only occurred in May 2012, November 2012 and for a single week in April 2013. So a fairly cautionary sign there.
