info_outlineWelcome back to Monday Market Moves with Steve Barton! The S&P 500 flirts with all-time highs, but strong resistance levels raise big questions—will bulls break through or is a reversal coming? Steve digs into this week’s price action and where momentum might shift next.
We take a close look at the "Mag Seven"—NVIDIA, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Meta, and Tesla—as early signs of weakness start to emerge.
