In this stock market update, Stephen Whiteside from TheUpTrend.com analyzes market trends ahead of key economic data. He highlights a negative week for major U.S. indices, with the S&P 500 down over 2.5% and the NASDAQ leading declines at nearly 5%. The VIX remains on a buy signal, signaling continued market uncertainty. Tech stocks, particularly semiconductors, led the downturn, while Bitcoin and Ethereum showed resilience before dropping in pre-market trading. Canadian banks experienced mixed performance, with some maintaining sell signals and others showing volatility.Whiteside also notes sector-specific trends, including a drop in gold prices and a slight pullback in crude oil. The end-of-month trading typically has a bullish bias due to automatic fund inflows, which could impact market movements. He advises traders to stay cautious and monitor key levels, particularly in high-profile tech stocks such as Apple, Microsoft, and Tesla.
