The Markets
Stocks ended generally mixed on Friday as traders took a breather following a wild week in the market. The S&P 500 Index closed with a gain of a mere three basis points (0.03%), charting a fresh record closing high and extending the bounce that has materialized around the rising 20-day moving average. Thursday’s upside gap between 4983 and 5038 has created another zone of support for the bulls to shoot off of as the benchmark becomes more comfortable with levels above the psychologically important 5,000 level. Momentum indicators have been negatively diverging from price, indicative of waning buying demand at these record heights, but this merely sets the benchmark up for a period of short-term exhaustion within a rising intermediate-term path that began in October of 2022. Seasonal tendencies call for weakness through the back half of February before entering the notoriously positive months of March and April, but with NVIDIA pushing back against this normal negativity that results in a round of profit-taking, we may have to expect a more subdued result than normal in the month of March as portfolio managers seek to right-size some of their imbalances that have resulted in portfolios following the technology run.
