Stocks retraced their recent rally yesterday – is this a new downtrend, or just quick correction?

The S&P 500 index lost 0.79% on Thursday as it went closer to the 4,400 level again. The market retraced its rally and it closed Friday’s daily gap up yesterday. On Friday the index was the highest since April of 2022. Last week it retraced all of its recent declines following economic data releases, among other factors.

There is still a lot of uncertainty concerning monetary policy, some technology stocks’ valuation concerns, but the investors’ sentiment remains bullish.

Stocks are expected to open 0.1% following lower than expected Nonfarm Payrolls release. The index remains above the 4,400 level as we can see on the daily chart:
