DecisionPoint has started posting short video alerts on our YouTube Channel. These videos are less than four minutes and give you the scoop on news you need to know about the market right now. Subscribe to the DecisionPoint.com YouTube Channel HERE so you'll be notified when these video DP Alerts are posted.

In today's video, Erin looks "under the hood" at the NYSE, Mid-Caps (MDY) and Small-Caps (IJR). The picture is not rosy, particularly given new all-time highs have been logged by the large-cap indexes. We need everyone on board to get a strong rally higher.

This could be a case of a "rising tide lifting all boats" eventually, but we would be cautious about the current rally given this lack of participation. Bull trap?
