SPX

8/10 – The major indices had a huge up day and finished per the following closes: DJIA + 535.10; S&P 500 + 87.77; & the Nasdaq Comp. + 360.88.

Looking Ahead – The next major change in trend is due 8/10 AC and we have another MAJOR one 8/11 AC, Please see details below. Now, it’s getting very interesting. Due to Wednesday’s big rally, the S&P is now flirting with the 4228 level, which is a 50% retracement of the entire 2022 bear market. The 8/11 AC change in trend is potentially the most powerful of the three day window with a Full Moon and Mercury 0f South Latitude. For everything to perfectly converge, and that seldom happens, we would like to see the S&P around 4288 at the 8/11 close or 8/12 open, and for that area to hold. However, it seems that with Wednesday’s big rally, the price may have gotten somewhat ahead of the time, making that scenario less likely. Anyway, stay tuned, it should be very interesting.

The Now Index is in the NEUTRAL ZONE.
