On November 13th, $SPX closed above 4402 for the second of two consecutive days, which was enough to dictate a bullish stance since it was an upside breakout over resistance and over the downtrend line, as well as closing the gap from the September breakdown. Then another huge upside gap was formed on November 14th, when there was favorable CPI data.

Stocks did an abrupt about face this week and have rallied strongly every day. At first, this rally was propelled by some strong oversold conditions and the fact that $SPX had bounced off its lower downtrend line. But as the week wore on, reports from the FOMC meeting and the Unemployment statistics emboldened investors who care about such things. This was all taking place during what is arguably the strongest seasonal pattern of the year.

The dominating feature of the $SPX chart is the downtrend. Lower highs and lower lows: that's all you really need to be aware of. Don't overthink it. New lows were made again this week. So, we are still carrying a "core" bearish position.
