The <strong>5-, 10-, and 30-day moving averages<\/strong> continue to align in a bullish formation, supporting the broader market structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The index has respected its rising channel since May 2025, with short-term support seen near <strong>6,800<\/strong>, followed by stronger structural support at <strong>6,650<\/strong>. The next upside target remains near <strong>6,950\u20137,000<\/strong>, where resistance could emerge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>MACD<\/strong> still signals bullish momentum, albeit with a narrowing spread between the MACD and signal lines, hinting at slowing upside velocity. Histogram bars have begun to flatten, suggesting a period of consolidation rather than reversal. Should momentum resume, a renewed crossover to the upside could reinforce buying pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fundamentally, sentiment remains underpinned by optimism surrounding <strong>AI-driven corporate earnings<\/strong>, resilient U.S. consumption, and easing Treasury yields, which have reduced pressure on equities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, traders are watching for any shift in Fed rhetoric that could temper risk appetite if policymakers maintain a \u201chigher-for-longer\u201d stance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Outlook<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The S&amp;P 500\u2019s resilience highlights continued investor confidence in easing trade and policy conditions.
