Headline News:

U.S. stock futures are higher to start the day despite investor’s concerns about the prospect of a contested election. However, the Nasdaq futures were higher, suggesting a rally in big tech stocks is in the cards today. U.S. private payrolls increased less than expected in October, which shows a slowdown in economic activity. Private payrolls increased by 365,000 jobs last month, and the report for September was revised upward to show 753,000 jobs added.

Markets:

The S&P 500 rallied early and almost touched potential resistance at 3399.54 but sold off to finish higher at 3369.16. The volume came in much lower with 2,319,137,280 shares traded, and the RSI index moved higher in support of the up move closing at 48.38. We are encouraged by the trading and feel that a potential short term bottom has been formed. If the index can move past possible resistance at 3399.54 and then the critical 50-day moving average at 3399.64, we feel a new uptrend will possibly be in place. We are also moving to a short term bullish stance.

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