S&P500 rally towards key resistance, what could happen next?
“S&P500 cleared major hurdle while current resistance poses threat ahead.”
US stocks advanced further upwards as recent data from the US suggests possible slowdown in Federal Reserve’s policy tightening. Last month, University of Michigan’s Consumer Inflation Expectation slipped from 5.3% to 5.2%. The data reflects possible depreciation in inflation which may encourage Fed to put a halt on current policy tightening.
