The S&P 500 closed the week in bullish territory despite a Friday selloff that wiped 1.24% off the index, pulling it back to 7,408. This week we break down what actually drove price — from the US-China trade optimism that fueled Monday's momentum, to the CPI and PPI data mid-week that gave bulls the confirmation they needed, to Friday's tech-led distribution as smart money rotated out of extended semis positions.
We cover the key levels that held, where institutional flow was concentrated, how Treasury yields complicated the Fed narrative heading into next week, and what the price action is telling us about the broader trend structure going into late May.
If you trade the S&P — this is your weekly debrief. No fluff, no predictions dressed as analysis. Just the tape, the data, and what it means for your positioning next week.
📊 Topics covered: SPX price structure | CPI & PPI reaction | Tech rotation | Treasury yield pressure | Key levels to watch | Macro setup for next week
