Weekend update - US equity indexes

It was a bullish week for US equity indexes, with net weekly gains ranging from +6.0% (Nasdaq comp'), +5.8% (Trans), +4.7% ( NYSE comp'), +4.6% (SPX), to +3.9% (Dow)
.

Lets take our regular look at five of the main US indexes.
For a grander perspective... monthly candle charts.

sp'500

Nasdaq comp'

Dow


NYSE comp'

Trans


Summary

All five US equity indexes settled net higher for the week.

The Nasdaq comp' lead the way higher, whilst the Dow lagged.

The SPX and Nasdaq comp' broke new historic highs.

All five US equity indexes are trading about their respective monthly 10MA, and I thus see the m/t trend as bullish


Looking ahead

A somewhat lighter week is ahead...
