Both forecasts from yesterday played out. First, the S&P came within two points of the ceiling zone at 2051. Then, news from the ECB sparked an end-of-day sell off, triggering the expected re-test of the 2027 level, which is now underway.   

Yesterday

  • The presumption is that we now go up to test the 2051-2061 level from below.
  • However, a second test of 2027 before attempting that major assault would not be at all surprising.   

Today

  • A gap beckons at 2018.50.  A timely fill of that gap would represent good housekeeping on the part of the bulls.
