…Transition from Cycle Day 1 to Cycle Day 2
Transition into Cycle Day 2: S&P 500 has officially entered 10% correction as Treasuries rise.
Three-Day Cycle rally has begun from the 5509.25 low, though it may be in a confused way, given the deep sell down.
Market is in search of stabilization following the break of two-day balance. They will need to continue to build a strong enough base to absorb any additional selling, otherwise and new down leg may unfold. How this week ends will be an important metric going forward.
