Good MorningThe major indices fell to new lows last week but buyers stepped in on Thursday and Friday to buy the dip. The S&P 500 ended the week well off of its lows and above the key 4,300 level. The move confirms support at the bottom of a trading range and may lead to higher prices this week but there is still risk ahead. Not only is the threat of war in Russia still present but the earnings outlook is dimming and there is the NFP report on Friday to think about.
If the S&P 500 can continue to rally this week it will need to get above the short-term 30-day moving average which is near 4,450 to be in the clear. Even so, there is the risk of resistance at the December lows near 4,500 so it is no time for investors to be complacent. If the market can not get above the combined resistance of the short-term moving average and the 4,500 level investors should brace for a retest of the recent lows.

From Our Partners | | Trump is launching a new $250 bill - but that may be a distraction. Behind the scenes, Executive Order 14241 is orchestrating what analyst Porter Stansberry calls a total U.S. money reset, bypassing conventional legal channels under the guise of national security.
The last time America reset its currency - under Nixon in the 1970s - it created an average of 1,300 new millionaires a day for over 50 years. Stansberry has identified three asset categories connected to Trump's initiative that could surge, plus his single top investment move. | | Watch the documentary briefing and find out which side you land on |
