📈Weekly Charts📉 September 27, 2025
Markets wrapped a choppy but constructive week.
Let’s run through the indexes, bonds, commodities, crypto, and key internals to see where things stand heading into October.
📊 U.S. Indexes
S&P 500 (SPX): Inside week near the highs on good volume with RSI back below 70. With two trading days left in the month, September is set to finish strongly.
Nasdaq 100 (QQQ): Inside week. RSI > 70. Good volume. Momentum still intact.
Dow Jones (DIA): Pushed to new highs before pulling back into another inside week. Plenty of room higher on RSI. Potential support near $451 with the 10-week MA catching up to the pivot.
🌍 Small Caps & International
Russell 2000 (IWM): Paused at the key pivot. Does it move on to the bonus tracks, or spin lower and force a new playlist?
ACWX (ex‑US): Last week’s potential topping candle confirmed. Deeper selling and a lower close than U.S. indexes hints at more downside. Watching the rising 10‑week MA as potential support.
FXI (China): Short‑term topping candle confirmed at a key retracement. Momentum cooling. Watching support near $39. A deeper dip would test conviction.
🧱 Bonds & Commodities
Bonds (AGG / TLT / HYG): AGG and TLT continued last week’s reversal.
High‑yield HYG tracked equities, riding the trend.
Dollar (DXY / DX1!): Follow‑through off the pivot confirms last week’s “showing signs of life.” Plenty of resistance overhead, but the tone shifted from breakdown to fight‑back.
Commodities (GSG): Working to “un‑stick” above the $23.15 pivot. DBP still the group leader.
₿ Crypto Check
Bitcoin (BTC): Dips further into a 21‑week consolidation. ~$100k–$115k range remains unbroken. Key AVWAP near ~$106k. RSI back toward 50% — watch if BTC can hold the bullish upper half.
Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL): Both found support at AVWAPs from the June pivot lows.
Litecoin (LTC): Pressed a bit deeper to the AVWAP from the June lows.
🔁 Relative Strength & Participation
Growth vs. Value nearly printed another 70+ RSI.
IWF / IWD
Discretionary kept leading Staples.
XLY / XLP
High beta vs. low volatility (SPHB vs. SPLV) reversed from overbought RSI.
Risk appetite still shows in leadership, even as momentum cooled slightly.

🧠 Breadth

What’s different?
And what are they telling you?
Divergence this week: % of SPX above the 50d fell while % above the 200d rose.
This rare split between short- and long-term breadth often signals digestion phases — but when the 200d rolls, that’s historically where corrections accelerate.
🧭 Now What?
Short‑term: Indices defended support but momentum cooled. Breadth divergence suggests chop or rotation. Dollar strength and bond action now key inputs. Eyes on how SPX and QQQ handle their 8–21d ranges next week.
Medium‑term: Longer‑term trends intact. Rotation opportunities emerging — leaders still strong while speculative pockets look vulnerable. Dollar extension higher could pressure risk assets.
Long‑term: Primary uptrend intact. Reversals have reset conditions without breaking structure. Expect digestion, rotation, and selectivity. A breakdown in 200d breadth or rapid dollar acceleration would be the warning flag.
🗓 The Week Ahead
