the market had a change of character today - it held tough in the face of the bearish breakdown in the retail and financial sectors. This is a short-term plus for the bulls. However, the bleeding [in these two key sectors] has to stop right now; else we could be in for some serious selling in the days ahead.

昨天大盤暫時收住了下滑的步伐，在零售和金融兩大板塊重跌的情況下巋然不動。這在短期內對多頭是有利的，不過兩大板塊的必須要停止下挫，否則會在接下來的交易日導致大盤出現強力拋售的局面。
