INSIGHT

April Low: Launchpad for Rally

The S&P 500 held a critical support level near 4800, marking the April low as a meaningful bottom.
A three-wave decline pattern suggests a strong likelihood for the market to return to previous highs.

ADVICE

Manage Risk, Buy Seasonal Dips

Consider taking profits on recent gains if you bought at the lows to manage short-term risk.
Use seasonal weakness around June to buy dips for longer-term positioning.
