S&P 500 Bears Pause As Bulls Stand Firm – 4,200 Marks A Critical Battle Line
Portfolio Pulse from Piero Cingari
The S&P 500 index saw modest gains on Monday, breaking a four-session losing streak. The index is recovering from its second-worst week of the year, with a 2.9% decline. Among the top 10 components of the S&P 500 index, nine stocks recorded gains, with Microsoft being the exception. Amazon provided the most substantial boost to the market’s daily performance with a 1.6% increase. However, a surge in Treasury yields somewhat restrained the bullish sentiment. The S&P 500 has experienced a 6% decline since its peak in July, with a critical level to monitor being 4,200, which could signal a major trend reversal for the broader market.
