Market Update Into 4/5: S&P 500 Smashes 4,000 and NASDAQ Pumps on News of Biden’s Green New Deal
Spartan cheers of victory rang out in the Wall St. pits on Thursday, as the S&P smashed 4,000 to new all-time highs. With the NASDAQ adding an impressive 2% gain to the index (recovering losses from earlier in the week), the overall market is moving quite bullish into Q2; inline with seasonality data according to Trendspider’s Seasonality Widget. An announcement from the Biden administration of a $2 trillion dollar infrastructure spending package is the main catalyst for Thursday’s surge. However, investors will be listening closely to the details of the package on Wednesday when a White House press conference is scheduled.

The $QQQ closed the week at $325.32; testing the upper level of an ascending triangle formation on the sessions chart. The weekly chart finds price well above the highest volume nodes at this price range; combining both for a suggestion biased toward a continuation on Monday’s open.
