NDX, SPX, DJI New All-time Closing Highs as Breadth Strengthens...Technology, Industrials, Health Care Led Sectors...


© 2025


SPX +31.61, 6,631, a new all-time closing high.  Breadth was stronger on Thursday after the Fed lowered interest rates by 25 basis points Wednesday afternoon.

If you were surprised by Thursday’s trend continuation move after Wednesday’s trading range in SPY and QQQ, then you may be reading too much news (subjective narratives) like gyrate and mixed.  The trend was up on Wednesday and the trend closed higher on Thursday.  Dave
