- S&P 500 +0.1%
- Russell 2000 +1.4%
There was no major news to digest, and the market had nothing new to price in.
Sector Round Up
6 of the 11 sectors posted gains on Friday.

Technicals:
The S&P 500 is flirting with an important level.
4,500 or 450 on the SPY chart below has shown itself to contain much resistance this year.
The overbought RSI conditions lead us to suspect its current hold above the level will be short-lived.
Markets seek balance, and the market isn’t in a good spot to keep climbing.
Watch for at least a short-term pullback soon.
