S&P 500 Price Forecast – Stock Markets Rally After Bank Earnings

The S&P 500 has rallied relatively significantly during the trading session on Tuesday, reaching towards the 3000 level by noon local time. Ultimately, there is a lot of noise above here and extending towards the 3025 level, so we aren’t out of the woods yet, but clearly it looks as if the market is trying to knock on the high levels. Short-term pullbacks intraday will probably continue to be looked at as buying opportunities as one of the mantras on Wall Street is “the Fed has your back”, and that of course drives stocks higher longer term.

To the downside, I believe that the 50 day EMA which is currently trading at the 2950 level should offer enough support that people continue to look towards this market for gains. At this point, I believe that there will more than likely be a nice “zone of support” between the 2950 level and the 2940 level. Ultimately, this is a market that we need to pay attention to above, because if we do break out to the upside and above the recent highs, it can take off towards the 3100 level. This is certainly the time of year it could, because fall earnings season tends to be a rather impulsive move just waiting to happen.

To the downside, if we break down below the 2940 level then it’s likely that we go looking towards the 200 day EMA which is currently trading at the 2880 I am bullish, but I recognize that looking for value on pullbacks probably continues to work best.
