SPX and QQQ rebounded sharply after early weakness. It is worth noting that both S&P and NASDAQ have pushed higher to break back up above prior swing lows—they are on track to push higher up to the resistance zone discussed in yesterday’s market update. The markets delivered another lesson in knee-jerk reactions. Despite a weak GDP print that sparked early panic—sending the S&P 500 down 2.6% at its lows—we stepped in ...
