The S&P 500 could possibly be using right into a “make-or-break second” within the quick time period, CNBC’s Jim Cramer warned Wednesday.
The “Mad Cash” host got here to that conclusion after reviewing chart evaluation from FibonacciQueen.com’s Carolyn Boroden, a market technician who has a value goal of three,720 however is worried a couple of looming decline within the broad index.
“If it may’t break by way of final week’s highs at 3,100,” Cramer mentioned, “Boroden thinks you’ll want to put together for ache as a result of the close to future may get ugly.”
In Could, Boroden projected that the market was in rally mode because it moved towards an preliminary value goal that she held of three,280. The index topped 3,232 in June earlier than dropping off 7% within the span of three buying and selling days.
The S&P 500, Boroden thinks, will not rally to her 3,720 value goal — a 19% run from present ranges — till it may break by way of 3,280, Cramer defined.
“Provided that we failed to interrupt by way of that resistance, she’s apprehensive about potential draw back right here,” he mentioned.
The day by day S&P chart paints a dimmer image. Cramer identified that whereas the index is buying and selling above its 50-day and 200-day shifting averages, one other indicator is singing a bearish tune.
The 13-day exponential shifting common is at present above the 5-day, which displays slowed momentum. This isn’t a name, nonetheless, for traders to surrender on their holdings. When the market levels a rally and the 5-day and 13-day averages inverse, it can set off bullish exercise on Wall Road, Cramer mentioned.
“If the S&P can try this after which take out final week’s highs, up about 40 factors from right here, then Boroden thinks we are able to resume the latest rally,” Cramer mentioned. “In that case, she says, the S&P may tack on one other 200 to 300 factors from these ranges.”
