Summary
SPX: new hist’ high of 5878, if cooling back to settle -0.02% to 5841. Momentum is flat-lining on the marginally positive side. Best guess… an OPEX pin around 5800.
NAS: settling +0.04% to 18373. Black candle… net bearish for Friday.
R2K: settling -0.3% to 226.05. RSI 64s… is on the high side.
Trans: settling -1.4% to 16332. Equity bears should be somewhat desperate to see a weekly close back under key price threshold of the 16300s.
