$SPY October 22, 2024AMEX:SPY October 22, 2024 15 Minutes. The downward bias target 580 was done yesterday. AMEX:SPY bounced back with a good bar with close near top of bar once 580 was done. This was 9 averages in daily. For the fall 585.39 to 581.60 AMEX:SPY retraced 61.8% to 583.5 levels. For the rise from 565.27 to 586.12 AMEX:SPY has retraced 23.6% levels. So today holding 580 is crucial for furter uptrend to continue. Buy is above 585 levels and sell below 580 levels for a possible target 573-575 levels. This is not a chart to short for more than 3 to 5$ targets as of now. If draw an extension from 566.6 to 585.27 to 578.54 first target is 588-590 levels for a buy above 585. I expect a good move today or tomorrow as all numbers near moving averages in chart in 15 minutes time frame. Time for a sideways consolidation move with bias towards upside.

SPY Technical Analysis for Oct. 22, 2024Key Levels: Resistance levels: 586.30: This is a significant resistance level that has been tested recently. 585.35: Another near-term resistance level. 583.55: A third resistance point that is currently closer to price action. Support levels: 582.12: Immediate support just below the current price. 578.51: A lower support zone that could provide a bounce if price drops. 577.01: Major support based on the recent low. Trend and Price Action: There's a visible descending trendline forming, which suggests a downtrend in the medium term. The price has tested this trendline several times but has not been able to break it. The chart shows that volatility is starting to decrease based on the tightening price range. SPY is trading around the middle of its recent price range, suggesting possible consolidation before the next move. Volume: The volume is relatively low, which could mean that the current move lacks strong momentum. However, low volume could precede a breakout or breakdown. Indicators: The MACD below the chart indicates potential indecision, with crossovers occurring but no strong momentum in either direction. This could signal that tomorrow might be a day for more cautious trading, waiting for confirmation of direction. Scenario 1: Bullish Breakout If SPY manages to break above 585.35, it could aim for the 586.30 resistance level and potentially higher if the breakout is strong. Scenario 2: Bearish Breakdown If SPY falls below 582.12, it could find support at 578.51 or even test the 577.01 level. A breakdown from there could signal further bearish momentum. Recommendation: Long positions could be considered if SPY breaks above 585.35 with volume confirmation. Short positions could be entered if SPY breaks below 582.12 with volume, targeting the lower support levels. Disclaimer: This analysis is for educational purposes and not financial advice. Trading involves risk, and you should only invest funds you can afford to lose. Always perform your own research and consult with a financial advisor before making any trading decisions.

SPY trading plan for October 22, 20241. Market Overview: Price Closed at 583.71: SPY closed near its recent highs, suggesting overall bullish momentum, but the presence of the sell signal on the chart indicates a potential short-term pullback. Momentum Slowing: Both the MACD and the yellow histogram bars are showing a decline in momentum, which indicates caution in the short term. Major Support Levels: The key support to monitor is around 581.50, which has held throughout the previous sessions. 2. Bullish Scenario: Trigger for Long Entry: Look for a bounce above 583.50–584.00: If the price finds support above the red moving average (around 583.50), or even better, if it clears the recent high of 584.00, this could be an indication of strength, signaling a potential long entry. Buy Signal Confirmation: Use shorter timeframes like the 5-minute chart or 15-minute chart to confirm if a new buy signal appears. Ensure MACD or momentum indicators on shorter timeframes show rising strength before entering. Trade Entry: Buy around 583.70–584.00 only if momentum reverses upwards. Profit Targets: First Target: 586.00 (Recent highs) – set a profit target around this level if the market continues to rise. Second Target: 588.00 (Extension target) – If momentum picks up, you can aim for 588.00, but be cautious as this could be a stretch. Risk Management: Stop Loss: Place a tight stop-loss around 581.00. This level is near the dynamic support of the red moving average and the previous session's support. Trailing Stop: If the price exceeds 584.00 and shows strength, consider using a trailing stop of 1.00 point to lock in profits while protecting against pullbacks. 3. Bearish Scenario: Trigger for Short Entry: Watch for Weakness Below 581.50: If the price breaks below 581.50, and the 30-minute signal chart confirms a sell signal, it would be an indication to enter a short position. MACD Confirmation: Ensure that the MACD on the 30-minute chart stays negative, or check for a sell signal on the 5-minute chart to confirm momentum is moving downward. Trade Entry: Enter a short position around 581.50 with confirmation of a bearish setup from multiple timeframes. Profit Targets: First Target: 579.00 – This level marks the next major support zone if the market pulls back significantly. Second Target: 576.50 – If the downward momentum is strong, this would be the next major area to consider for taking profits. Risk Management: Stop Loss: Place your stop-loss around 583.00 if entering a short position. This gives some room in case of minor fluctuations above the breakdown level but protects against a full reversal back into bullish territory. Trailing Stop: Consider using a 0.75 point trailing stop to manage risk as the price moves in your favor. 4. Intraday Strategy: Morning Setup (9:30 AM – 12:00 PM): Observe the Opening Price Action: The first 30 minutes will be key to understanding if the market continues the bullish momentum or begins to retrace from the recent highs. If the price stays above 583.50 in the first hour and signals align with buy indicators on the shorter timeframes (5-minute chart), consider entering a long trade. If the price starts to break below 581.50, be ready for a potential short opportunity and follow through with the short strategy outlined above. Midday Trading (12:00 PM – 3:00 PM): Monitor Consolidation: SPY may consolidate between 581.50–583.50 in the middle of the day. Look for momentum signals and volume increase as indicators of the next move. Use Smaller Timeframes: Focus on the 5-minute or 15-minute charts to spot any changes in trend or breakouts from this consolidation range. Afternoon Setup (3:00 PM – 4:00 PM): The last hour of trading can often bring increased volatility. If a breakout occurs in either direction, enter a trade using the strategy of either buying above 584.00 or shorting below 581.50. 5. Additional Considerations: Look for Divergences: Pay attention to any divergences between the price and the momentum indicators (e.g., MACD or RSI). For example, if the price reaches a higher high but momentum is lower, this could signal a false breakout. Monitor Broader Market Sentiment: Keep an eye on overall market sentiment and external factors that could affect SPY’s direction, such as macroeconomic news, earnings reports, or changes in interest rates. Summary of October 22, 2024, Trading Plan: Bullish Trade: Buy around 583.70–584.00 if upward momentum is confirmed, with targets at 586.00 and 588.00. Set stop-loss at 581.00. Bearish Trade: Short below 581.50 if weakness is confirmed, with targets at 579.00 and 576.50. Set stop-loss at 583.00. Morning and Afternoon Focus: Watch opening price action and volatility towards market close for optimal trade execution.

SPY Trading Plan for Monday, October 21, 2024Trading Plan for Monday, October 21, 2024 Based on the SPY research report and technical analysis, this plan outlines strategies to capitalize on short-term market movements while managing risk effectively. The focus is on taking advantage of tactical opportunities within SPY's current range and being prepared for breakouts or reversals. Key Price Levels to Monitor: Resistance: $588.91 Support: $571.26 Current Price: $584.59 (as of October 18, 2024) Market Context: SPY has shown signs of consolidation following a strong uptrend. Technical indicators, including overbought conditions on the hourly and 5-minute charts, suggest that while momentum remains positive, we may see a pullback or breakout soon. Pre-Market Actions: 1. Review Overnight Futures Data: Monitor SPY futures during pre-market hours to gauge market sentiment. If bullish, be ready for a potential breakout above resistance. If bearish or flat, prepare for possible consolidation or a pullback. 2. Check for Macro News and Earnings: Be mindful of any macroeconomic releases or earnings reports that could impact the market direction. Unexpected news could shift the market's movement, so adapt the strategy accordingly. Primary Trading Strategy: Tactical Buy on Dips 1. Buy at Key Support Levels: Entry Price: Initiate long positions if SPY pulls back to the $575 - $571 range (key support). Target 1: $584 (return to current price range). Target 2: $588 (resistance level). Stop Loss: Place a stop loss at $570 to manage downside risk in case SPY breaks below support. Rationale: SPY remains above key moving averages and the broader trend is bullish. Buying near support levels allows for entry during a potential bounce within the uptrend. 2. Monitor 5-Minute Signals for Buy Confirmation: Use the 5-minute signal chart to refine entry points throughout the day. A buy signal at key support adds strength to the long position. Combine with volume analysis: Look for increased buying volume near support as confirmation of a reversal to the upside. Breakout Strategy: Buy on Break Above Resistance 1. Entry for Breakout Above $588.91: Entry Price: Buy if SPY breaks above $588.91 with strong volume. Target 1: $590 Target 2: $595 Stop Loss: Place a stop at $586 to manage risk if the breakout fails. Rationale: A breakout above $588.91 indicates renewed bullish momentum. Given the potential weakening in the MACD, confirmation with volume is essential to validate the move. Alternative Strategy: Short on Rejection at Resistance 1. Short at Resistance Levels: Entry Price: Consider shorting SPY if it fails to break above $588.91 and shows signs of reversal (e.g., bearish candlestick patterns, weakening volume, or 5-minute sell signals). Target 1: $580 Target 2: $575 Stop Loss: Place a stop at $590 to manage risk in case of a sudden upward reversal. Rationale: Overbought conditions and weakening momentum indicators increase the likelihood of a short-term pullback if SPY fails to break above resistance. A failed breakout could offer a tactical short trade. Risk Management: 1. Position Sizing: Follow the 1-2% rule: Risk no more than 1-2% of your total portfolio per trade to minimize losses. Maintain smaller position sizes in a consolidating market to manage risk amid potential volatility. 2. Hedging: Consider hedging long positions by buying put options or using inverse ETFs like SH (ProShares Short S&P 500) if SPY shows weakness and starts trading below $571. 3. Volatility Watch: Monitor the VIX index: A spike in the VIX signals increased market fear, which could precede a downside move in SPY. Tighten stops if VIX increases sharply. Contingency Plan: Gap-Down Open Below $571: If SPY opens significantly lower, avoid initiating long positions until the price stabilizes or shows clear reversal signals. Gap-Up Open Above $590: If SPY gaps above $590, trail the stop loss tightly to manage a possible reversal after the initial upward move. Unexpected Market Shocks: If the market experiences unexpected negative news or shocks, consider exiting all open positions and re-assessing the technical landscape before entering new trades. End of Day Review: At the close, review open positions and the overall market direction. If SPY remains within the $571 - $588 range, hold long positions as appropriate. If a breakout or breakdown occurs, adjust positions based on the target and stop levels outlined in the trading plan. Conclusion: For Monday, October 21, 2024, the primary strategy will be to trade within the range of $571 to $588 with a bias toward buying on dips. However, be prepared for potential breakout or rejection signals. Implement strict risk management, including position sizing, stop losses, and hedging to navigate the session's volatility effectively.

SPY Research Report for the week of October 21 - October 25Investment Summary: The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) continues to trade within a well-established uptrend, showing resilience amid broader market volatility. However, short-term technical indicators suggest caution as overbought conditions and a slight weakening in momentum raise the possibility of consolidation or a pullback in the near term. SPY is currently trading at $584.59 (as of October 18, 2024) after gaining 2.24 points (+0.38%) on the day. For the upcoming week, we expect SPY to trade within the $571 - $588 range, with key resistance at $588.91 and support at $571.26. A break above this range could lead to continued upside, while failure to sustain current levels might trigger a retracement to stronger support areas. Technical Analysis Overview: Price: $584.59 | 1-Week Target: $590 | 1-Month Target: $600 Recommendation: Hold / Tactical Buy on Dips Key Observations: Bullish Price Trend: SPY remains in a well-established uptrend across medium to longer-term timeframes. The price is comfortably above the 200-hour EMA and hugging the upper band of the Bollinger Bands. This implies continued momentum to the upside, but the price nearing resistance around $588 suggests that near-term gains may be capped unless significant catalysts emerge. Overbought Conditions: The Stochastic Momentum indicator is signaling overbought conditions on both the 30-minute and hourly charts. While the overall trend remains positive, such signals typically precede a period of consolidation or correction. Investors should prepare for short-term volatility. MACD Trend Weakening: The MACD on the hourly and shorter timeframes has started to flatten out, signaling a potential loss of momentum. A cross below the signal line would further validate the possibility of short-term weakness, leading to a consolidation phase or pullback. Support and Resistance Levels: Immediate Resistance: $588.91 A break above this level could fuel further upside momentum toward $590, and if sustained, could lead to a push toward the $600 level over the next few weeks. However, failure to break this level would likely lead to consolidation within the current range. Key Support: $571.26 Should SPY retrace, the $571 level offers solid support, aligning with mid-range Bollinger Bands and prior consolidation levels. A break below $571 could increase downside risks, with further support at $553.62. Outlook and Scenarios: Bullish Case: SPY continues to exhibit resilience and bullish momentum, suggesting further upside potential if market conditions remain favorable. A confirmed break above $588.91 would set the stage for a rally toward $590-$595 in the coming week. This scenario is supported by broader market sentiment, as SPY remains well above key moving averages. Base Case (Neutral): In the event of consolidation, SPY is likely to trade within the $571 - $588 range for the next several sessions. Given current overbought signals and flattening MACD indicators, it is likely that SPY will consolidate before making any further moves to the upside. Traders can expect heightened volatility in this range, offering tactical trading opportunities. Bearish Case: In a risk-off scenario, if selling pressure accelerates, SPY could break below $571, leading to a broader retracement toward the $553.62 level. A shift in macroeconomic conditions or a significant external shock could trigger this downside move. Investors should watch for a breakdown in technical support levels, which would confirm this scenario. Investment Guidance: Tactical Strategy: Buy on Dips: Investors with a medium- to long-term horizon should consider adding to positions if SPY pulls back toward the $575-$571 range, where technical support is likely to hold. Breakout Strategy: Traders should consider entering positions if SPY breaks above $588.91 with strong volume, targeting the $590-$595 range in the short term. Use tight stops to manage risk given the possibility of volatility. Risk Management: Trim Positions Near Resistance: If SPY struggles to break above $588 and begins to exhibit signs of weakness, consider trimming positions or using options to hedge. Downside Hedge: For more risk-averse investors, consider hedging exposure if SPY closes below the $571 support level. This could indicate a deeper correction and warrant reducing exposure to broader equity markets. Macro Factors: Federal Reserve Policy: The recent Fed interest rate cut in September 2024 has provided a supportive backdrop for equities, including SPY. However, if macroeconomic data disappoints or if inflationary pressures re-emerge, this could lead to increased volatility. Investors should monitor upcoming Fed commentary closely. Earnings Season: As earnings season progresses, SPY constituents' performance could drive additional volatility in the ETF. Strong corporate earnings could provide an upside catalyst, while any disappointments would likely weigh on the broader index. Conclusion: SPY remains in a strong uptrend, though short-term overbought conditions and weakening momentum suggest the possibility of a pullback or consolidation before further upside. Investors should focus on tactical buy-on-dip opportunities around $575-$571 and be prepared for a break above $588 to signal further gains. Risk management remains key, with downside support levels providing critical areas to monitor in the coming week.

S&P Bulls Hold Strong, But Is a Market Cooldown Coming?Last week wasn't particularly remarkable. Despite two bearish attacks (on Tuesday and Thursday), buyers still managed to push the market to a new historical high. It was somewhat concerning that they couldn’t sustain the high for even an hour after the open, but since the bearish movement didn’t gain momentum on Friday, the bulls still have the upper hand. We may see some consolidation in the upcoming weeks, as there are signs that the rally is approaching exhaustion (weakening of upthrust, weekly RSI entering the overbought zone, weakness in XLK). However, this market has repeatedly demonstrated its resilience and ability to exceed expectations. The long-term outlook remains bullish, but given these signals, it would be prudent for buyers to downsize their positions and refrain from selling PUTs. Mind TSLA report on Wednesday as it can cause some volatility and act as a trigger.

Are we setting up for a 5-10% pullback pre-election?AMEX:SPY looks exhausted here and everyone is extremely bullish at the highs. Sentiment is at extremes and we have demark combo 13s that triggered at the end of last week. On top of that, we've been moving up in a rising wedge that looks set to break down. Also, if we look at the chart, there's an imbalance in price action as we have largely gone straight up since the August 5th low and the area I've highlighted hasn't been retested at support. All this leads me to believe that we should see a 5-10% pullback in the next couple of weeks prior to the election. Why in the next two weeks? From a candlestick perspective, we're starting a new 2D, 3D, 2W, 3W candle today which leaves the possibility open of a trend change to start today. I expect the move to play out before the election. I'm playing this idea solely through volatility calls which I averaged into Wednesday-Friday last week. Let's see if it plays out.

SPY Technical Analysis for Oct. 21, 2024Technical Analysis Overview Trendline and Ascending Channel: SPY appears to be respecting an ascending triangle pattern, as shown by the diagonal trendlines sloping upwards. It is consolidating near the upper boundary (around 586.30), which could signal potential strength if it breaks through. This is often seen as a bullish continuation pattern. Support and Resistance Levels: 586.30: Acting as a key resistance level, tested multiple times without a breakout yet. A break above this could open up new highs. 584.81: A visible support level within the range. If this level holds, it would confirm buyer interest. 583.84 and 582.35: Additional nearby supports; a move below these levels could trigger a deeper retracement, potentially dragging SPY towards 578.55-578.53 (lower support zone). Volume and Order Blocks: There's a volumized order block (green zone) sitting between 582–584. This suggests significant buying activity in that zone, providing a buffer for price to bounce higher if tested. MACD Indicator: The MACD histogram and signal lines show a mild bullish crossover below the zero line, hinting that momentum might be shifting towards the bulls but still lacks strength. The bars indicate weak momentum, suggesting that SPY might need a catalyst for stronger movement. Possible Scenarios: Bullish Case: If SPY breaks above 586.30 with volume, expect a possible run-up towards 590. Bearish Case: If it fails to hold 584.81, a drop towards the lower support levels (582 or 578) is likely. Breaking below 578 would shift the bias towards bearish. My Thoughts & Strategic Viewpoint: Given the narrowing price action, SPY looks poised for a breakout or breakdown soon. I would lean towards bullish bias, given the upward trendline and multiple touches on resistance. However, the lack of strong volume and a weakening MACD suggests that the breakout may not be explosive without more volume or a fundamental trigger (e.g., economic news or earnings). For scalping, I’d suggest: Entry on breakout above 586.30, ideally with volume confirmation. Stop loss just below 584.81 to manage risk. A short trade opportunity might arise on rejection from resistance or a breakdown below 583.84, aiming for the 582-578 zone. Disclaimer: This analysis is for educational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice. Trading involves risk, and it's essential to manage your risk appropriately. Always do your own research and consult with a licensed financial advisor if needed.

$SPY Outlook for OCT 21, 2024AMEX:SPY headed into this week is an inside bar / 1 / harami. Means an explosive move is coming. Got a 2-1-2 going into Monday. The overall market structure is still bullish with higher lows and higher highs. There's no real catalyst ' yet ' for a big bearish move. I'd watch how Sunday night's global opens and see what transpires during the London session of NYSE:ES SEED_ALEXDRAYM_SHORTINTEREST2:NQ There still a GAP downside that was not completely filled last week. #SPY is in this rising wedge pattern and been respecting the TL (Green/Red). The pivot for SPY will be 583.99 - 584.55. If the bulls hold above that, you will see 585.39 get taken and then potentially 586.12. Failure by the bears to stop the move up and 587/587.35/588 will be on the path. If the bears take control and break the pivot zone, then you will see 583.67 / 583.2 / 582.6 / 582.33 and 581.82 / 581.5 / 580.9 Market Structure starts to change with a break of 582.16.

SPY EOY AnalysisAs we approach the end of the year, the SPY (S&P 500 ETF Trust) appears to be trading within defined expected ranges, according to the provided data. This week-by-week analysis is particularly useful for traders and investors looking to optimize their risk management strategies and position sizing. Here’s an overview of key metrics and their importance: The **Kelly Ratio** is a widely-used formula to determine the optimal portion of capital to allocate to each trade. This ratio is especially valuable for traders looking to strike the right balance between risk and reward. For example, in the current week (Week 42), the Kelly ratio of 0.3068 indicates that about 30% of available capital could be allocated to this position, assuming optimal risk management based on expected returns. By examining this ratio weekly, investors can adjust their exposure depending on how favorable market conditions are. A higher Kelly ratio indicates better opportunities, while a lower ratio calls for a more conservative approach. The **Adjusted Kelly Fraction** is a fine-tuned version of the Kelly ratio that takes into account additional constraints like risk tolerance or market liquidity. In the current week, this fraction is 0.1767, which is more conservative than the Kelly ratio, suggesting that adjustments for risk aversion or other factors have been made. Tracking this weekly allows investors to stay flexible and manage risk more effectively, adapting to changing market conditions. The **Tail Ratio** measures the likelihood of extreme market movements. For Week 42, the tail ratio is 0.79, suggesting that the chances of a large, unexpected price movement are somewhat contained. A low tail ratio signals that the market might experience higher volatility or extreme price swings, and tracking this metric over time helps identify when market stability or instability might occur. **Volatility** (%) is another critical factor, indicating the magnitude of price swings within each week. In the current analysis, volatility fluctuates between 2.16% and 3.38% in the weeks ahead. Higher volatility indicates greater price fluctuations, which might present opportunities for traders using strategies that profit from large movements, such as straddles or strangles. Lower volatility suggests a more stable market, ideal for time-decay strategies like credit spreads. **Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR)** is a risk management tool that estimates potential losses during extreme market conditions. For Week 42, the CVaR is -4.12%, indicating potential losses in worst-case scenarios. CVaR helps in preparing for unfavorable outcomes, especially during weeks with higher anticipated risks, ensuring that your strategy accounts for rare but impactful events. Finally, the **Expected Minimum and Maximum Prices** for each week give you a clear sense of the anticipated trading range. In Week 42, the expected minimum price is $555.49, and the maximum is $608.63, suggesting a relatively stable range. Strategies like iron condors or butterflies, which benefit from price staying within a certain range, would thrive in such conditions. Weeks with a broader range might offer opportunities for breakout trades or more aggressive directional strategies. Looking further ahead, Week 49 stands out due to a sharp negative position size (-269.59) and a drawdown of 0.93%. This week warrants caution, as it signals the potential for more significant downside risk, though subsequent weeks like Week 50 show a return to more stable expected ranges. Overall, SPY’s end-of-year outlook suggests that the market will largely remain within predictable bounds, though periods of increased volatility could arise. Investors and traders should stay vigilant, using tools like the Kelly ratio, tail ratio, and CVaR to manage risk while capitalizing on available opportunities. Maintaining a disciplined approach to position sizing and risk exposure, while adapting strategies based on weekly volatility and price range expectations, will be key to navigating the remainder of the year. **Disclaimer**: The following analysis is based solely on the provided data and is for informational purposes only. It is not financial advice, and any investment decisions should be made after thorough research and consultation with a financial advisor.

SPY Loosing Momentum ! SPYLOVERS DONT PANIC ! Its OKAfter several weeks of analysis, the price reached its all-time highs twice, creating a new extreme. Att his moment is what i call in a no man's land zone. But what do I see in the overall structure? If you can clearly identify the yellow upward channel, I want you to split it in half, and we will analyze the two parts. In the first half, we have an active price movement, with clear fluctuations between support and resistance. The high volatility causes the price to move in waves, perfectly respecting support and resistance. But if you can manage to identify the second half, up until the end of the channel, you'll see that the price shows signs of exhaustion. Exhaustion, how? When the price stops having that volatility everyone is looking for, and begins to slow down and starts moving like a worm along the edge of the channel’s support, showing small candles and, above all, losing momentum. (In the chart, I want you to identify the price exhaustion by marking it with a small symbol of a worm crawling along the channel's support.) This type of behavior happens frequently when the price is losing momentum. In this type of scenario, I am more than certain that we will soon see a move where the price might break out of the yellow channel. Most likely, we will see the price make its natural retracement. After achieving two all-time highs, I believe it's time for the price to take a break, either to consolidate or make a quick decision. Nevertheless, I am expecting the price to make its natural pullback in the coming week. We’ll see if it happens. Best regards, and thank you for supporting my analysis.

Reaching the top on Elliott Impulse WaveThe potential upside for SPY could be around 1% to 2.5%, pushing it to the 590-600 range. However, with the market in overbought territory, signs of an ABC correction are starting to emerge. This correction could lead to a 5% to 10% decline, potentially stretching into the next year. Despite two years of strong bull market gains, we haven't seen a significant correction, which feels overdue, particularly with the euphoria around AI investments. While I hesitate to call it a "bubble," it's not on the same scale as the dot-com bubble, as many of the companies leading in AI are established tech giants rather than startups. However, it's still unclear how much revenue these companies will generate from AI in the short term, though Meta is already seeing some returns, while others are likely to see results in two to three years. A further risk could stem from geopolitical tensions between Israel and Iran, which are closer to war than ever. If conflict escalates, Iran could block the Strait of Hormuz, which handles about 20% of global oil traffic. This would drive oil prices higher, pushing inflation up and potentially leading the Fed to raise interest rates. As of now, the market hasn't even priced in the possibility of a limited or retaliatory strike from Israel, which seems increasingly likely. Lastly, I don't believe this will mark the end of the bull run or push SPY into bear market territory, as there are still solid data points supporting the economy. Hopefully, a small correction occurs, which would be healthy, and we avoid any major geopolitical fallout.
