When this large a cohort of the benchmark trades above their 50-day average, the S & P 500 has averaged a 6.

The firm also noted that the index is positive more than 80% of the time in the six and 12 months following such strong market breadth.

This under-the-surface improvement comes as traders cheer U.S. data that indicates the Federal Reserve may be able to tame inflation without dragging the economy into a recession.
