Headline News:

Wall Street is set for a choppy open on Thursday after posting a week-to-date gain of 10.5%. Investors got the closely watched weekly jobless claim report that came in at 5.25 million jobs lost, and an estimate that last week’s claims were as high as 9.29 million jobs lost. Some economist are now forecasting a much lower GDP for the second quarter and the potential of a 14% unemployment rate. Fears of an impending recession or an economy already in a recession could affect trading today.

Markets:

The S&P 500 closed at 2749.98 on Wednesday, which was above a resistance level at 2711.33. The RSI index moved above the critical 50 level in support of the up move, but the volume was below average. Potential resistance could now be at 2882.59, and support is still potentially at 2749.98 and then possibly at 2637.01. Today’s trading action could be choppy due to a holiday-shortened trading week. We are encouraged by the trading action, which has changed our short-term stance to short term bullish.

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