Stocks closed mildly lower on Monday as a dip in energy shares and ongoing hesitation in growth segments of the market (eg. technology, communication services, consumer discretionary) weighed on border market benchmarks. The S&P 500 Index slipped by four-tenths of one percent, continuing to consolidate above previous horizontal resistance, now support, at 3900. The horizontal hurdle represents the upper bound to a cup-and-handle pattern, a bullish setup that projects an upside target towards 4200. The short-term trend of the benchmark is still deemed to be positive, supported by the rising 20-day moving average. Momentum indicators are similarly showing a positive slope, attempting to relinquish the characteristics of a bearish trend that have plagued the benchmark all year. Declining long-term resistance at the 200-day moving average, as well as trendline resistance at 4100, are the significant hurdles on the upside.
