Summary

Yesterday saw broad gains, as the market fully negated the Friday washout. S/t momentum ticked upward into the close, settling on the high side.

Overnight futures have been pretty subdued, if leaning on the upward side. The s/t cyclical setup threatens a cooling wave, especially from late morning onward.

New historic highs for the SPX and Nasdaq comp’ are very viable within the next few days.

*Powell is due to testify this morning, although prepared remarks were already released yesterday in AH.
