S&P 500 Bounces From 2022 Support Level

For about two years, between March 2020 and January 2022, SPX was in a bullish marathon. The support level as of March 2020 was $2210. The rally peaked at $4822 in January 2022. This price stands as the all-time high for the stock index.

Despite price reaching the all-time high in 2022, last year was a bad year for SPX investors as price went as low as $3488 in October 2022 as a result of the bearish turn. That low was 2022’s support level. 2023 has shown a bit of hope as there has been a bounce from 2022’s close of $3833. SPX opened in 2023 at $3845 and is currently at $3969.

On the daily chart, RSI indicates that price was oversold as of October 2022. This might be the reason for the recent rally. This oversold position may be able to create a bullish force that in the long run can push SPX above the all-time high thereby creating a new all-time high. However, in the short term, we might be seeing price rally above $4200 in the coming weeks.

Etsy Dips To A New Low

Etsy is an American Vintage e-commerce company focused on handmade and vintage items and craft supplies. Etsy was founded 16 years ago and went public about 7 years ago at $16. On the day of the IPO, the share price rose by 72%. After 9 months of its launch on the stock exchange, it took a bearish turn and hit an all-time low at $6.04.

From January 2016, $ETSY share price took off in the bullish wave. In November 2021, Etsy’s price reached a new all-time high at $308.96. That high reflected on the RSI as an “overbought” indication. Following that all-time high, the share price fell and so far, the share price has lost 65% of the price of the all-time in November 2021. The most recent price dip did not indicate oversold on the RSI despite the 65% fall in price. The crisis between Russia and Ukraine has not really affected the US stocks as $ETSY has been appreciating from the new low at $108.53 for the past two weeks. This appreciation could lead to a long-term rally that could see $ETSY gaining 100 points.
