Will $SPX Support Hold?

By Licia Leslie

August 30, 2024

Hi Shoppers,


We had a little sell off yesterday trading down to support on my S&P 500 (TIcker: SPX) chart:

Watch the $5573 level and from there Wednesday’s low at $5561.

 

If those support levels break we will trade back down to $5500.

 

If support holds and they love it, we will need to clear those most recent highs at $5561 before rallying up to $5695.

 

It is the Friday before a long weekend, so we may not see much action at all.

 

Trade Review

 

Portillo’s (TIcker: PTLO) broke out but then retreated back. Use a stop loss of a close below $11.50.

 

Thanks for Reading … See You Next Tuesday,
