S&P 500 Review

S&P 500 – Weekly Chart

courtesy of Fusion Analytics Investment Partners

As seen in the chart above the S&P 500 is retesting its highs from last week near 1,150. Given this is the first attempt at overtaking 1,151 and the index has to come up over 10% just to get there we are expecting some sort of pullback at least in the short run.

As long as the index stays above its recent pivot lows and uptrend near 1,045 the long running recovery rally is still in place. Should the S&P 500 defy logic here and blow through the 1,151 area without any pause then the secondary upside target is the 1,200 region.
