Last Week We Said
From our report on April 03:
- 🟡 S&P 500: Rallied +3.4% to 6,583. Short-term momentum breadth (5/6 positive) is confirming the bounce, but trend structure (1/6 positive) hasn't turned yet. This is the classic setup for a strong but potentially short-lived rally.
- 🟢 MSCI World (ACWI): Gained +3.6%, tracking US markets. The rally is global, not just a US story.
- 🟡 Global breadth: Mixed signals this week. Breakout / Breakdown, Weekly Movers (±10%) flipped bullish, but HH/HL Structure turned bearish. The market is in transition — not yet a clear trend in either direction.
What happened: S&P 500 rallied +3.6% this week. The bullish signals were on track.
