Quiet Wednesday, Explosive Thursday? The SPY Consolidates Ahead Of Key Inflation Data
Portfolio Pulse from Melanie Schaffer
The SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) showed slight gains on Wednesday, continuing its consolidation after Monday's significant rise. The market is anticipating key US consumer inflation data set to be released on Thursday, which could significantly impact the direction of SPY. Traders looking to take short-term positions based on the upcoming data may use the Direxion Daily S&P 500 Bull 3X Shares (SPXL) for a bullish stance or the Direxion Daily S&P 500 Bear 3X Shares (SPXS) for a bearish approach. Both SPXL and SPXS are triple-leveraged ETFs tracking SPY's movements. The article suggests that SPXL is showing a bullish pattern but warns of a potential new downtrend if negative market reactions occur after the inflation data release.
