📊 SPX — Piyasa Yorumu
▼ down · 70%The surge in May inflation to 4.2% due to an energy shock could weaken expectations for a Fed rate cut and increase selling pressure in the market. The S&P 500's RSI stands at 42.9, in weak territory, with the price trading below both the 20-day and 50-day moving averages. The MACD line is below the signal line in negative territory, indicating that short-term bearish momentum may continue. Although the 2.7% decline over the past 24 hours partially reflects the negative impact of the news, higher-than-expected inflation data could trigger additional selling. In the short term, the 7300-7350 zone may be tested, but since the market has not entered oversold territory, there is also a risk that the decline may be limited.
