The SPX 500 stalled after erasing nearly all of last week’s down move and reclaiming a foothold above the 2100 figure. Near-term support is at 2099.50, the 23.6% Fibonacci expansion, with a break below that on a daily closing basis exposing the 38.2% level at 2089.40. Alternatively, a move above the July 31 high at 2115.90 opens the door for a test of the June 22 top at 2129.60.
