Good MorningEquity markets advanced on Tuesday, clawing back Monday's losses to close roughly break even to the previous week. The move was driven by hope for de-escalation of the trade war with China. The risk is that it will be days or weeks before any movement in that regard, and it could be months or longer.
The S&P 500 advanced 2.5% at the session's high and could continue to move higher this week. The technical setup is promising, with support evident at higher levels than earlier in the month, and indicators like stochastic and MACD aligning with a bullish swing. The question is how high the index can go with this rebound, whether it's a bear-market relief rally or a bull-market rebound with the potential to turn into a sustained rally.

From Our Partners | | Moderna's stock doubled in a single day after its cancer vaccine hit key Phase 3 goals, and Merck jumped too. But according to a former Steve Cohen fund manager, the next big opportunity is not Moderna or Merck.
