The Markets
Stocks remained supported in the Wednesday session as another push lower in the US Dollar and the level of interest rates buoyed investor enthusiasm for stocks heading into the end of the year. The S&p 500 Index closed with a gain of just over a tenth of one percent, charting a fresh 52-week high and pushing closer to significant resistance at the all-time high of 4800. While momentum indicators remain overbought, there is indication that a rollover from overbought extremes is being attempted, a move that is likely to precede the much needed pullback in prices in order to reinvigorate buying demand for the next upside thrust in the market. Support remains plentiful below present levels, including major moving averages and previous horiz0ntal resistance at 4600, providing many points below the benchmark to catch it should it fall. The traditional Santa Claus rally has just over a week left before a tougher period for equity market performance begins, seasonally, in January. There is certainly no reason to bet against the positive seasonal trend here, implying remaining near fully allocated in stocks and bonds remains prudent.
