At the close of trading on Monday, all three major U.S. indices were able to, surprisingly, close in the green after some early and mid-day volatility. During the day, the Dow fell more than 1,100 points amid a stock market sell-off ahead of this week’s Federal Open Market Committee meeting. To close last week’s, stocks hit a major low across the board with all three major U.S. indices recording significant drops. With several factors dictating the market, the $VIX traded higher, near 40 level and the $QQQ short term is oversold; resulting in what will most likely be a retest of the March-May 2020 low. The Fed decision on Wednesday, escalation in Ukraine, and earnings this week can impact the next move in the market. We are watching the vital support levels in the SPY, which are presently at $420 and then $400 and we expect the market to stage a strong rebound in the next 1-2 weeks. Globally, Asian markets finished with mixed results while European markets closed significantly lower. We encourage all market commentary readers to maintain clearly defined stop levels for all positions. For reference, the SPY Seasonal Chart is shown below:
