The S&P 500 SPDRs (NYSE: SPY) had dropped to below their 50-day moving average and 200-day moving average early this week. Both of these averages are watched closely be investors for signs of strength and weakness in stocks.
But on Thursday, June 25, the SPDRs reversed early day losses and rallied hard right into the close. A two percent gain at any time is a good day but Thursday’s gain reversed six days of lower prices and pushed the SPDRs back above those important moving averages.
To be certain there needs to be follow-through. Look for a continuation of the rally on Friday or early next week.
