SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust

SPY tracks a market cap-weighted index of US large- and mid-cap stocks selected by the S&P Committee.

SPDR® S&P 500 ETF Trust has triggered a red, vertical line Sell Signal, indicating a test of support at $550 after breaking below $560. September is historically weak for the market, with potential technical bounces at strong support levels like $550, possibly influenced by Fed rate cuts. Day traders and robots exploited a perfect storm of bad economic news and post-holiday low buying activity, driving prices down sharply.
