Documenting The Rally

The S&P 500 is up more than 17% from its late-March low and now sits 7% above its 50-day moving average, signaling a strong short-term technical extension. The Nasdaq is similarly stretched, with its current gap above the 50-DMA matching levels last seen in late 2009 during the early post-financial-crisis recovery. The note is primarily a market-technical observation rather than a fundamental catalyst.
