All three major U.S. indices closed deep in the red, over 1.5% down but off session lows, as data showed COVID-19 cases continue to rise while stalled stimulus talks in D.C. also pressured stocks. Last week, all three indices finished lower for the week with over 83,000 reported new cases, topping the previous mid-summer record of 77,000 cases in a week. This week, earnings will remain at the forefront of the market while additional stimulus talks and the Supreme Court confirmation could also impact U.S. shares. Marquee earnings this week include Alphabet, Microsoft, Visa, Amazon, Apple, and Facebook. With the market having broken through the $340-342 support level, and prone for further corrections, the next level of support is set at $330. Our latest models are projecting the SPY to trade in the range of $318-$360 and we will look to be buyers into any short-term corrections. Short-term traders could consider adding to positions when SPY is near $330. We continue monitoring VIX levels as the market can overshoot support and resistance levels when VIX is trading near the $25 level. As always, we encourage all market commentary readers to maintain clearly defined stop-levels for all positions. For reference, the SPY Seasonal Chart is shown below:
