659.03 Dollar Recovery Signal: Fed Dovish Pivot Ahead, Technical Bounce Eyes 670-680 Zone

Latest Close (EST):

SPY closed at $659.03 (+1.00%), recovering from recent weakness with the index climbing back above the $655 support level, though still 4.5% below its 52-week high of $689.70.

Core Market Drivers:

Fed officials' dovish commentary is reshaping December rate cut expectations, with NY Fed President Williams suggesting "near-term" easing remains on the table despite recent hawkish rhetoric;

Government shutdown resolution removes a key uncertainty overhang, allowing markets to refocus on Fed policy trajectory.

Technical Analysis:

• Volume at 124M shares shows moderate participation in the bounce;

• RSI(12) at 40.31 signals oversold conditions with room for recovery;

• MACD remains bearish at -2.67 with signal line at 0.42, but momentum divergence suggests potential for technical relief rally.

Key Price Levels:

• Primary Support: $650-655 — Critical bounce zone, break below risks deeper correction toward $630

• Resistance Band: $665-670 — Former support turned resistance; reclaim opens path to $680-685

• Pivot Point: $659 — Current close aligns with short-term equilibrium

Valuation Perspective: SPY's P/E ratio of 16.2x trades in line with historical averages and below S&P 500's long-term mean of 18-20x, offering reasonable value relative to growth prospects despite recent Fed uncertainty.

Institutional Targets: Wall Street consensus maintains $680-700 targets for year-end, contingent on Fed policy clarity and economic data stability through December FOMC meeting.

Next Week Outlook: Expect continued $650-670 range consolidation ahead of December 10th CPI release and Fed meeting; Bullish breakout above $670 could trigger momentum toward $685; failure below $650 risks retest of $630-635 support zone.
