If there’s no rain, the short-term outlook is quite constructive. On top of the seasonal shift, the S&P 500’s 10-week moving average has largely acted as support and resistance throughout 2023. And if you analyse the grey arrows near the right side of the chart, you can see that buyers stepped in when intraweek volatility recently struck the index.
The S&P 500 ended the May 16 session less than 20 points above the key level, meaning the next pullback could be the final one before the seasonal bulls gain the upper hand.
Should you keep your finger near the buy button, or has the correction only just begun?
