The S and P 500 fell and the Nifty made new highs last week. Signals are mixed for the upcoming week. Past and future FED rate hikes are yet to be priced in and sentiment indicators are back in complacency mode. Market internals, the transports and commodities are flashing major warning signs of a large decline ahead. Friday’s reversal suggests this could be imminent. The critical levels to watch are 2440 (up) and 2420 (down) on the S & P and 9750 (up) and 9550 (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. Love your thoughts and feedback.
