S&P 500 sees five straight days of gains
The S&P 500’s 3.5% rally from its early May low amid five consecutive days of gains has taken it to the 5,200 mark around which it may short-term lose upside momentum. A slip towards the 5,132 to 5,123 55-day simple moving average (SMA) and the late April high might be on the cards for this week.
Were the recent advance to continue, the April record high at 5,274 would be back in the frame.
