Today, July 7th, markets are showing a mini gap down on the NASDAQ, with the SMH dropping 3% in pre-market trading, signaling continued weakness in semiconductors. While there's no red-flag economic news today, keep an eye on FOMC minutes tomorrow at 2:00 PM EST and unemployment claims on Thursday. This video offers a fantastic, in-depth look at market movements, making the full watch absolutely worthwhile by clearly breaking down complex chart analysis. We see the SPY holding between its previous day's range, while the QQQ is filling a gap down to around 714, and the SMH is back at Friday's lows near 584. Key levels to watch include 750 for the SPY, where a break above could signal upside, while rejection might send it lower. For the QQQ, filling the gap around 714 is a potential bounce point.
