A spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce stated: We have noted the ruling of the U.S. Supreme Court in the tariff lawsuit and are conducting a comprehensive assessment of its content and impact. China has consistently opposed all forms of unilateral tariff increases and has repeatedly emphasized that there are no winners in a trade war, and protectionism leads nowhere. The U.S.s unilateral measures, such as reciprocal tariffs and fentanyl tariffs, violate both international trade rules and U.S. domestic law, and are not in the interests of any party. Facts have repeatedly proven that cooperation between China and the U.S. benefits both sides, while confrontation harms both. China urges the U.S. to cancel its unilateral tariffs on its trading partners. We have also noted that the U.S. is preparing alternative measures, such as trade investigations, in an attempt to maintain tariffs on its trading partners. China will closely monitor this and firmly safeguard its interests.Nasdaq futures extended their losses to 1%, S&P 500 futures are currently down 0.75%, and Dow futures are down 0.6%.Goldman Sachs: Potential easing of sanctions on Iran/Russia will accelerate the increase in crude oil inventories and release more supply in the long term, with crude oil prices expected to have a downside of 5% to 8% in the fourth quarter of 2026.Data released by South Korean automotive data research firm Carisyou shows that new car purchases by South Koreans in their 20s and 30s will fall to their lowest level in ten years by 2025.

Is this a probable bottoming pattern for the S&P 500 as its consolidation continues to grow?


After starting above its closing price on Friday, the broad stock market index fell by 0.40% on Tuesday.


It prolonged a consolidation near the 3,800 level that had lasted more than two weeks. It dropped to a new mid-term low of 3,764.49 on Thursday of the prior week before rising back over 3,800. Overall, it continued to prolong a consolidation that had started after the drop from 4,100. The December 14 FOMC interest rate rise, among other things, caused the S&P 500 to decline in mid-December.


This morning, the S&P 500 is most likely to start off 0.3% higher. Another effort to break above the current trading range could be made.
