The Markets
Stocks closed generally mixed on Thursday as investor attention remains squarely focused on the technology sector. The S&P 500 Index ended with a gain of just less than a quarter of one percent, continuing to show elevation above the 20-day moving average level that it had been grinding around in recent days. Wednesday’s upside gap between 5375 and 5409 still defines a zone of short-term support for traders to shoot against as the market gets set to enter one of the weakest periods of the year starting today (June 14th). The benchmark has become overbought, according to the Relative Strength Index (RSI), but it has stockpiled levels of support below, including major moving averages, which are in positions to attempt to catch prices if and when a digestive period commences. Seasonal tendencies call for weakness through the next couple of weeks and, combined with the lack of market breadth, we are still unable to find reason to be aggressive in stocks in the near-term, until we get to the summer rally period just ahead of July. We are, however, finding the opportunity to rotate our core bond allocation in the Super Simple Seasonal Portfolio as the dynamics in this asset class shift.
