This market continues to show an amazing amount of bullish strength. After having trouble at the 5180 level for about a week, $SPX broke on through after the FOMC meeting and is trading at new all-time highs once again. The 5180 levels is now support. There is further support at 5050, and since $SPX did some "work" in that 5050-5180 area for a few weeks, it is a solid support area throughout as well as the launch pad for this new leg of the rally.

This market just keeps rolling along. It is overbought, but that's probably a good thing rather than a bad thing. As the noted Smith Barney technician, the late Alan Shaw, said "The most bullish thing a market can do is get overbought and stay there." That's what this market is doing.

After gapping sharply higher on the NVDA earnings (February 22nd), $SPX slowed down a little but did not really pull back strongly. In fact, the Index made another new closing high yesterday. There is still a large gap on the chart (circled in Figure 1 on the upper right), from the post-NVDA reaction, and it would probably be a healthy thing if that gap were closed (a move down to 4983 would accomplish that).
