This Week's S&P 500
This week (Oct 20–25) S&P 500 (SPX) generally trended higher. The week began around 6,690 points, supported by favorable corporate earnings and rising expectations for rate cuts. In midweek it rose to the 6,738 area, but profit-taking caused a small pullback.
On Friday the 24th, after CPI data came in softer than expected, rate-cut bets strengthened, risk-on mood spread, and the index rose again, closing at 6,791.69 for the week, an all-time high.
Also, the range between 6,600 and 6,760 remained, but breaking through an important resistance line suggests further upside is possible.
Key drivers this week included expectations for rate cuts due to cooling inflation and solid earnings from tech and financial sectors. As a result, the S&P 500 rose about 2% for the week, making it a strong week overall.
