All eyes on inflation

11 янв.

The SPX regained ground above $4,700 in the past two trading sessions and is now testing resistance at $4,800. If the index breaks above the resistance and closes above it for at least two consecutive days, it will bolster a bullish case; a growth in RSI and Stochastic on the daily graph will also strengthen this case. However, a failure of the SPX to take a foothold above $4,800 combined with a spike in the VIX will raise our suspicion about the prospects of the SPX continuing higher. With that said, there is a release of inflation numbers in the U.S. today, which might cause markets to turn volatile, especially if the print will come in higher than expected. As a result, we are approaching the market very carefully.
