The markets are trying to hold on to some footing after big post-QE3 gains from last week. Today we are analyzing the SPDR S&P 500 (NYSEMKT: SPY) as it is the most liquid of all ETFs. With Bank of America Corp. (NYSE: BAC) leading banks lower with its shares down over 2% and with Alcoa Inc. (NYSE: AA) leading metals lower after poor Empire Manufacturing data, today’s charts are going to need a much better review than the buying-binge we saw last week.
For Monday’s chart analysis, Phil Erlanger said, “We are seeing a slow start to the week in trading. Key levels to watch today: Resistance of 147.98 and support on SPY at 146.63. If we break above the Pivot line (pink) at 147.37 we can tag a run at the resistance. The previous session (Friday) two hour low (brown line) at 146.76 seems to be holding as support for Monday’s action.”

The Average American Is Losing Their Savings Every Day (Sponsor)
If you’re like many Americans and keep your money ‘safe’ in a checking or savings account, think again. The average yield on a savings account is a paltry .4% today, and inflation is much higher. Checking accounts are even worse.
Every day you don’t move to a high-yield savings account that beats inflation, you lose more and more value.
But there is good news. To win qualified customers, some accounts are paying 9-10x this national average. That’s an incredible way to keep your money safe, and get paid at the same time. Our top pick for high yield savings accounts includes other one time cash bonuses, and is FDIC insured.
Click here to see how much more you could be earning on your savings today. It takes just a few minutes and your money could be working for you.
