Headline News:

U.S. stock futures are set to open lower to start the week after the Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 100 basis points. The S&P 500 futures fell over 4% to trigger a down trading limit overnight, and oil prices continued to plunge. The Fed’s action has appeared to spook investors, which has caused a potential loss of creditably for Chairman Powell. Central banks in Japan, Australia, and New Zealand have also announced monetary easing, but so the efforts have not helped investor confidence.

Markets:

The S&P 500 moved below support at 2478.86 and closed at a new low for the year at 2386.13. Potential new support is now at the 12/28/2018 low of 2346.58. Volume was once again heavy on Monday, and the RSI index moved lower in support of the selling to close at 30.17 level. Since the S&P 500 made a new low, we must continue to be cautious to protect against any further selling, and more importantly, guard against the important potential support level of 2346.58 not holding.

We are currently long-term bullish and short-term bearish.
