S&P 500 Remains Below 3,900 Ahead of Fed’s Policy Release

November 2, 2022 (Investorideas.com Newswire) The S&P 500 index remained below the important 3,900 level on Tuesday, as investors awaited today’s FOMC release. Will that event lead to a correction?

The S&P 500 index lost 0.41% on Tuesday, following its Monday’s loss of 0.8%, as it continued to trade along the 3,900 level. Last week it extended an uptrend from the October 13 new medium-term low of 3,491.58. The market went up to the resistance level of 3,900 and since Friday it has been fluctuating below the 3,900 level. This morning the S&P 500 index is expected to open 0.1% lower on better-than-expected ADP Non-Farm Employment Change release. The market will be waiting for the Fed’s Monetary Policy release at 2:00 p.m. and their Conference at 2:30 p.m. So we’ll likely see an increased volatility later in the day.

The S&P 500 index continues to trade above the upward trend line, as we can see on the daily chart (chart by courtesy of http://stockcharts.com):
