Cautious Outlook – Short-Term Pullback, Bullish Base Holds

Cautious Outlook – Short-Term Pullback, Bullish Base Holds
  • QQQ closed at 744 on June 15, reversing early-week losses
  • SPY closed at 754.83 on June 15, staying above its 731.79 50-day EMA
  • VIX dropped below 17 as market fear subsided
  • Both ETFs maintained longer-term bullish structure

QQQ traded in a narrow range after a sharp dip on June 10, then recovered strongly with a breakout close above 740 by June 15. SPY followed a similar pattern, holding above its 50-day EMA throughout the period. Both ETFs showed resilience above the 50-day moving average despite short-term weakness. EMA convergence—especially flat 5, 9 and 20-day EMAs—suggests indecision. VIX declined from 19.44 to 16.20 over the same stretch, signaling easing volatility and a calm risk environment.
