Author: Two days ago, on Monday, the Wall Street indices started the week high and lost momentum throughout the day, closing near their daily lowest. The weakness had continued to yesterday’s trading (Tuesday). The S&P got rejected upon testing the tough resistance at 2800 – 2820.
The market began by declines of 0.2 – 0.5 %; however, it didn’t take long for the market to recover, which showed that there is still not much selling pressure around. Throughout the day, the indices even moved to the positive territory up to +0.2%. But during the last half hour of trading, the sellers turned the indices back to the red side.
