Good MorningInvestors cheered the inauguration of President Joe Biden for the stability he is expected to bring. The S&P 500 moved up nearly 1.5% to set a new all-time high and confirming the latest uptrend is still intact. The move was led by a 2.0% gain in the tech-heavy NASDAQ Composite that owes its strength to the FAANG names, Netflix the number one among them. The warning for investors is that technical signals reveal a weak and overextended market ripe for a correction.
Shares of Netflix helped lift the entire market after the company reported its calendar Q4 earnings. The company reported over 8 million new subscribers in the quarter bringing the total to over 200 million for the first time on record. The news is not only good for Netflix but proves the thesis that tech will be a winner in 2021.
