Outlook and Implications for the Coming Week

  • Short-Term Outlook (September 1–5, 2025): The S&P 500 is likely to continue its bearish trend into the coming week, driven by the Evening Star and Bearish Engulfing patterns. The price could test support at 5,345.01 (early 2025 low) or drop further to 5,300 if selling pressure intensifies.

  • Long-Term Outlook: The trend remains bearish, with the S&P 500 in a correction phase that could mirror the early 2025 decline from 6,000 to 5,345.01. The current price of 5,312.45 is below the 50 MA (5,629.83) and 200 MA (5,796.34), supporting this outlook, with a potential retest of 5,345.01 or lower if bearish momentum continues.

The candlestick patterns suggest a bearish short-term outlook for the coming week, with a bearish long-term outlook, indicating the S&P 500 is in a correction phase following its recent high, with potential for further downside unless a bullish reversal emerges at key support levels.

Given the above, the short-term trend is expected to remain bullish, but corrections are anticipated soon.

At the earnings call, Meituan CEO Wang Xing said: “In a big competition, being the underdog is the most exciting position to be in. That’s why this is so thrilling.” Will you bet on the underdog or ride the surge? Why underdog? The popular one may have fewer upside potential. Risk-reward ratio may be low. Why the major trend?
