Signs of improvement - ABX & CMBX indices

As I posted on Thursday, Markit's ABX and CMBX indices have been strong this past week, with both indices pulling back before reaching the extreme levels reached last November.

Markit's AAA ABX indices appeared to have made a higher low last week, but after nitially advancing, have paused. Still, these indices are showing positive divergence to SPX. Here's Markit's AAAA 07-2 series, with SPX (from Stockcharts) superimposed in green



Similar story with Markit's CMBX indices, although these indices have continued to improve all week. Here's Markit's CMBX AAA 4 index (which shows price). I've superimposed the inverse of SPX in blue. Again, note the divergence.
