Bullish Reversal Attempt in Tech Heavy Indices
QQQ led the market rebound over the five day stretch with closing prices settling above key moving averages after a brief dip. The ETF recovered from a low of 696.64 on May 12 to close at 714.71 on May 13 and 719.79 on May 14 before pulling back slightly to 708.93 on May 15. EMA5 remains flat at 710.28 over the period suggesting consolidation near the 20 day EMA of 685.68 and 50 day EMA of 657.12 indicating a potential base formation.
SPY followed a similar pattern with the index holding above the 20 day EMA of 725.81 throughout the period. The closing price on May 14 reached 748.17 before retreating to 739.17 on May 15. Both SPY and QQQ showed resilience as volumes picked up during up days.
VIX dropped from 17.87 on May 13 to 17.26 on May 14 before rising to 18.43 on May 15 signaling renewed but still subdued concern among investors.
Technical levels suggest buyers are defending higher lows while sellers face resistance near recent highs. The alignment of price above multiple moving averages supports an upward bias in the near term provided VIX remains contained.
