Indices are seeing mixed trading today as a China trade deal agreement hits a stall. A beleaguered Boeing Co. (BA) is seeing positive trading today after SunExpress ordered 10 737 Max8 aircraft, amounting to $1.2 billion.

SPY overhead resistance remains $310 and we will look to buy when the SPY is near $297 level.

Although markets are acutely sensitive to these headlines around the phase-one deal, it is apparent that this situation is still volatile and unpredictable. Increased market momentum in a bullish trend may contribute to the assumed bargaining power of the U.S. administration. While Huawei remains on a federal restriction list, a 90-day extension of the license allowing U.S. companies to conduct business with the Chinese telecom giant is expected to be approved by the Trump administration. The status of the company is one of many items of leverage in a complex trade dispute.
On the other end- China’s central bank has just announced it is lowering the interest rate on its regular reverse purchase open market operations. This would be a first in over 4 years since October 2015. This is largely an effort to revitalize confident sentiments in the market and help with slowing growth rates.
