The Markets
Stocks gained on Tuesday following remarks from Fed Chair Jerome Powell, who indicated that the disinflationary process has begun. The S&P 500 Index closed with a gain of 1.29%, bouncing off of last week’s breakout point at 4100 and erasing much of the loss recorded in recent sessions. The bounce from the important pivot point at 4100 starts to define this zone as support, critical to keeping the rising trend of the benchmark from its October lows intact. An intermediate-trend of higher-highs and higher-lows is being attempted and the appearance of a cup-and-handle could provide upside implications of 500-points above last week’s breakout point. The 20 and 50-day moving averages continue to maintain positive slopes, defining rising trends over short and intermediate-term timeframes. The price action has quickly alleviated much of the negative framework that technical analysts have been concerned of over the past year.
Sentiment on Tuesday, as gauged by the put-call ratio, ended bullish at 0.91.Today, in our Market Outlook to subscribers, we discuss the following:
