The Markets
Stocks hovered predominantly around the flat-line on Thursday as traders took a breather following the prior session’s record setting breakout of major equity benchmarks. The S&P 500 Index closed with a loss of two-tenths of one-percent, charting a bit of a doji (indecision) candlestick above previous resistance at the March high of 5264. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is back knocking on the door of overbought territory, providing characteristics of a bullish trend that seemed like was under threat just a few weeks ago. The rising 100-day moving average (5031) remains the hurdle to shoot long-side bets against as the intermediate-term path of higher-highs and higher-lows progresses. Thus far, the off-season for stocks has not proven to be much of a headwind for the equity market and the next short-term buying pattern typically materializes in the days ahead amidst the run-up to the Memorial Day holiday. While much of the short-covering that plays out around this event (eg. the meme stock rally) may have already been realized, the technicals remain sufficient to continue to position for higher prices in the equity market until such point that levels of resistance become more important to traders than levels of support.
