The market continued to rebound on Thursday’s session with the S&P 500 above the prior days close 77% of the time and Nasdaq Composite 100% of the time. Volume levels were not excessive but around the average volume.

Market Report for Jun 10 2022
A bearish Thursday as we spent 45% and 44% of the time below the close of Wednesday for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite.
