Venture exchange bottom JMHO but I think the ventue exchange bottom occured a couple days ago, April 4th @ 1026 after a 1017 low the same day, with very light volume after a steep 100 point drop in the preceding week.
The volume continues to be weak, with the bid ask spreads consitantly wide.
I think capitulation has allready occured in this market, and investors are not willing to sell their shares any lower, they may as well hold on to what you have. At least that is the way I precieve things to be.
We will know that this is the bottom if the volume suddenly upticks with an agressive upswing as it did in 2009. We are only 300 points off the lows of 2008 while the broader markets are basking in the sunshine of record highs. That is in direct contrast to the venture market. which is trading at only 30% of it's all time high of 3350 in 2007.
Hopefully we see this market return to a more optomistic state.
