$SPX continues to surge, having made new all-time highs on four or the last five trading days. There is minor support at 7338 (the past week's low), and at 7275 (the bottom of the most recent gap on the $SPX chart). Stronger support might be found in the 7050-7175 area, and then there should be solid support at 7000.

This display of strength has occurred in the face of potential geopolitical worries, which indicates that "the market" isn't too concerned with those. $SPX has strong support at 7000 -- the previous all-time highs -- as well as minor support at 7125 and 7050.
