It was a bullish week for most US equity indexes, with net weekly changes ranging from +2.9% (Transports), +0.9% (Dow), +0.7% (SPX, NYSE comp'), to -0.1% (Nasdaq comp').
Lets take our regular look at five of the main US indexes

Summary
Four US equity indexes settled net higher for the week, with one net lower
The Transports powered upward, whilst the Nasdaq comp' settled fractionally lower.
The SPX, Dow, and NYSE comp' broke new historic highs.
More broadly, all five US equity indexes are holding above their respective monthly 10MA, and I thus see the m/t trend as bullish.

Final note
With a trio of index historic highs, it was just another week for the equity bulls. Price action itself is outright tedious, consisting almost entirely of algobot upward melt. This could easily continue into Labor day.
I would be especially mindful of WTIC and the R2K, if oil can break above the $77.00 threshold, and if the R2K can break a new historic high >2330s, it will bode very bullish for the main market into the autumn.
