Lockout Rally Continues; Breakouts Piling Up; SPX Breakout Above 2-Yr Resistance at 4600-4607
- Since 11/21/23 Compass we have discussed weekly that even a minor 2-5% pullback is far from a guarantee, considering “breakaway gaps” and what appeared to be an ongoing “lockout rally”
- All we got was a 1% peak to trough decline in the S&P 500, while the Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) pulled back 2.9% (though left the 11/14/23 gap unfilled).
- Now, SPX and QQQ are breaking out yet again after a multi-week consolidation period, including SPX breaking above 2-year resistance at 4600-4607. This is what a strong market looks like.
