S&P 500 (SPY, SPX)
The S&P 500 is once again going to try to take out 2,500 this morning. Resistance comes around 2,530 and support is around 2,460.
Amazon (AMZN)
Amazon is planning to expand its Whole Food stores, the stock is currently trading higher this morning and is approaching a key level of technical resistance. Should the stock rise above $1,520 it could make a move higher to around $1,580.
Facebook (FB)
More negative headline for Facebook regarding data sharing according to an FT Report\. The stock continues to be in a steep downtrend, and every attempt to break out has failed. The stock may lift to around $140, but don’t expect it to last. If anything the path of least resistance is still lower and $115 seems possible.
Tesla (TSLA)
Tesla is due to report fourth quarter delivery and production results on the 2nd or 3rd of January. As noted previously the stock continues to hold support around $300.
Apple (AAPL)
Apple shares are moving higher today on direct news. But obviously a trade deal between the U.S. and China would be a big benefit for Apple and reduce any potential tariff risks on the iPhone. If Apple can stay above $154, it would have room to rise towards $164.
Netflix (NFLX)
Netflix is rising today by after the company releases some positive news around its newest movie Bird Box late last week. The shares are rising above $260 and the next level of resistance comes around $271.
Good Luck on this final day of 2018!
