The Markets
Stocks again struggled to gain traction on Thursday as investors remain on edge amidst concerns pertaining to interest rates and geopolitical tensions. The S&P 500 Index closed lower by just over two-tenths of one percent, continuing to move into February’s upside open gap and implied support between 4983 and 5038. Short-term resistance can be pegged at the declining 20-day moving average, now hovering at 5172. Momentum indicators remain on the decline with the Full Stochastic oscillator firmly into oversold territory, setting up the appropriate conditions to realize a reprieve in the near-term selling pressures as we navigate through the heart of earnings season and towards the end of April. The price action of recent weeks has certainly corrected much of the excesses that had been built up and investors should be prepared for the rebound out of this short-term slide to play the ongoing positive intermediate-term path. Seasonally, a couple of more weeks remain in the best six month of the year timeframe for stocks and we have no reason to develop a negative bias, yet, akin to what is normally appropriate for the off-season that runs from May to October.
