Following a mixed performance last week, U.S. benchmarks started the week similarly with the Dow nearing record territory and closing in the green while the S&P and Nasdaq finished in the red. Long-term U.S. Treasury yields rose as the latest stimulus package works its way through Congress. Earnings season remains in focus this week with Home Depot, Square, Nvidia, Airbnb, and DoorDash set to release quarterly reports while several key economic reports are due to release throughout the week. January income, consumer spending, core inflation, capital good orders, and more are set to release this week while on Tuesday Fed Chair Jerome Powell is scheduled to testify, providing additional insight on current market conditions. Goodyear Tire saw shares boosted following its acquisition of Cooper Tire; Gold and Oil shares also saw positive movement to start the week. Globally, Asian markets traded to mixed results while European benchmarks closed modestly lower. Until an additional breakout is maintained, our models are projecting SPY to trade in the range of $364-$390. We continue to see a strong rotation from growth to value stocks and it is our opinion that the market could be prone to further corrections. The next level of support is set at the 50-day moving average, $364-$370. We encourage all market commentary readers to maintain clearly defined stop-levels for all positions.
