S&P rebounds on tariff threats

0 23

S&P (SPX500) bounces back
S&P (SPX500) Chart: The index bounces back as investors react to market uncertainty and tariff developments.

The S&P (SPX500) jumped higher as buyers looked to stop the sell-off in the index market. With stocks having their worst quarter in years due to the tariff chaos, a move above 5500 has lifted sentiment. With a bullish RSI developing, traders are hopeful of a turnaround in price action. A break above the daily resistance of 5780 could begin the comeback, with 5670 being the first target.

USDJPY seeking triple top
USDJPY Chart: The pair tests resistance as buyers attempt a breakout amid ongoing tariff concerns.

The US dollar grinds higher after moving away from the recent firm support. With Donald Trump’s ongoing tariff threats, price action moved against the Yen. A subsequent break above 150.00 triggered a short reversal as the pair attempted another move towards 151.00 at the previous double top. 150.25 is the next level to see if buyers are making a comeback, and failing that, 148.20 could be in the bears’ eyesight.

EURGBP double bottom lift
EURGBP Chart: The euro rebounds from a double bottom, aiming to regain lost ground.

The euro is attempting a comeback as the pair looks to fight back against March’s downturn. From the chart’s perspective, the pair is still inching higher despite a choppy path. A break above 0.8360 continues to put intraday sellers on the defensive. The base of the recent double bottom at 0.8310 is a significant level to keep the directional bias up. Otherwise, a fall below that support could cause a bearish reversal. A daily close above 0.8400 would see the rally resume.
