The U.S. stock market has put together a multi-day rally and is attempting to breakout to new highs.
The S&P 500 Index is back over 3000 and much will be determined short-term as to whether the index breaks out to new highs or not.
Today I share charts of the S&P 500 Index and Russell 2000 Index.
They are annotated with my current thoughts and analysis and what I think it would take to turn these indices bullish.
S&P 500 Index
The broad market index is trading back at the upper end of the ellipse zone. We are monitoring for either a breakout or a reversal here on a “weekly” closing basis.
On a daily time frame, we are watching 3040 as key breakout level.
Russell 2000 Index
The small cap index is lagging other large cap indexes like the S&P 500. However, the Russell 2000 is trading near its downtrend line. A breakout here would be important for the broader market. See chart for more analysis.
