Here is what you need to know on Friday, October 22:
A new record high close for the S&P 500 on Thursday comes despite some interesting headwinds brewing. Friday's price action looks more muted and will set up the interesting possibility we alluded to. Can the SPY form a double top? Now that would get technical analysts salivating. When you add in soaring energy prices, inflation and now yields, it does make you wonder. The flow of money in has just been too strong, and earnings have held up their side of the bargain. That may be about to change though as Intel (INTC) slumps in the premarket after an earnings miss.
The dollar, meanwhile, was fairly calm despite rising yields. Bitcoin is back up above $63,000, and Gold is at $1,791. The US 10-year yield is at 1.75%.
