The S&P 500 was up for the seventh-straight session after settling at 4,352 (+0.8%) with the record peak hitting 4,355. Fresh and lower resistance at 4,350-4,375 was breached and held. A close above the latter would signal additional upside towards 4,400-4,425.
The Dow ended at 34,786 (+0.4%) following the intraday run to 34,821. Key resistance at 34,750 was recovered. Continued closes above this level would suggest a retest towards 35,000 with the lifetime top from early May at 35,091.
The Russell 2000 went out at 2,305 (-1%) with the midday low tapping 2,302. Current and upper support at 2,325-2,300 failed to hold. A drop below the latter would likely lead to a continued fade towards 2,275-2,250. Below is a chart of the IWM.
