Good MorningThe equities market continued its rebound on Tuesday with the major indices all gaining at least 1.75% at the high of the day. Investors are cheering an apparent reduction in volatility and declining risks of a retail trader stampede. The historic short-squeeze in Gamestop that sparked the fear appears to have run its course but share prices for GME are still well above their December 2020 levels.
The implication of Tuesday’s move is more than short-term. The market, in its move higher, confirmed support at a major moving average and in turn a continuation of the uptrend. The next hurdle for the market will be resistance at the all-time high and that test may coincide with the January jobs report. The report is expected to reverse December’s net job losses and will be closely scrutinized by the market.
