Resistance is persistent while the NYSE and major US Indices trade at or near all-time highs.

In addition, the recent rotation into small cap stocks suggest an eventual break to new highs.

 

“Inflation should fade into 2022 and 2023” – ECB Lagarde 

Short-term, CPI data came out this morning, showing consumer prices are rising as the economy reopens. The CPI report was expected to show prices rose another 0.4% in May, pushing annual inflation above April’s 4.2%, already the highest in more than a decade. Futures are responding by moving higher going into the opening bell.

Tick cumulative turned late on Wednesday, indicating a “short-tern” possibility of weaker price action.

Watch for a higher low Thursday or Friday, then a higher high to confirm the short-term trend is intact.

Intermediate and long-term trends are intact. In addition, more stocks are participating, as breadth shows more stocks are moving in unison. The equity market is bullish as we can see highlighted by a rising or bullish trend in NYMO. The McClellan oscillator suggests underlying strength.
