The U.S. stock market indexes gained between 1.3% and 1.6% on Friday, retracing some of their last week’s losses, as investors hunted bargains following relatively sharp downward correction. The S&P 500 index bounced off the support level of 1,800-1,820, marked by previous medium-term lows. On the other hand, the nearest important level of resistance is at 1,900-1,910, marked by previous support level, among others. For now, it looks like an upward correction within a short-term downtrend, as there have been no confirmed downtrend reversal signals so far:

Concluding, the broad stock market bounced off sharply, following recent move down. There are still some short-term oversold conditions which may lead to an upward correction or downtrend reversal. We prefer to be out of the market at this moment, as we expect more short-term volatility. We will let you know when we think it is safe to get back in the market.
