The Sand P 500 and the Nifty fell last week. Indicators are bearish.

The US market and the Nifty fell last week. Signals are bearish for the upcoming week. The Vix is suggesting complacency. The markets are breaking down from resistance and are likely to continue major breakdowns in 2016 as the recent rally appears to have concluded. A big move is imminent.  The critical levels to watch are 2070 (up) and 2050 (down) on the S & P and 7800 (up) and 7700 (down) on the Nifty. A significant breach of the above levels could trigger the next big move in the above markets. You can check out last week’s report for a comparison. You can also check out snapshots of the S and P 500 and Nifty Indices. Love your thoughts and feedback.
