Weekend update - US equity indexes

It was a very bullish week for US equity indexes, with net weekly gains ranging from +7.1% (Trans), +6.8% (Nasdaq comp'), +6.6% (SPX, R2K), +6.2% (Dow), to +5.7% (NYSE comp').

Lets take our regular look at six of the main US indexes

sp'500

Nasdaq comp'

Dow

R2K

NYSE comp'

Trans

Summary

All six US equity indexes saw very powerful net weekly gains.

The Transports lead the way up, whilst the NYSE comp' was a little laggy.

More broadly, all six US equity indexes are trading under their respective monthly 10MA, and have increasingly negative momentum. By definition, all six indexes are m/t bearish.

Looking ahead

It will be a short four day trading week, with Monday CLOSED for Memorial Day.

As Tuesday is the end of the month, I'd expect considerable chop on very high vol'.
