I assumed this price action signaled the market&#8217;s readiness to cash in on the capital gains that it did not want to register in 2024. However, a minor bullish divergence in market breadth appeared as a small improvement in the percentage of stocks trading above their respective 50-day moving averages (DMAs). For day number two of 2025, the script read &#8220;market breadth firms.&#8221; A jump in market breadth close to the last high underscored a notable rebound in the major indices. The stock market is now one fresh breakout in the S&amp;P 500 from resuming its resilient and stubbornly bullish behavior from 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1196033822186410\" data-ad-slot=\"3478942445\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><br>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Stock Market Indices<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The S&amp;P 500 (SPY) started the year looking ready for a confirmed breakdown. When the index briefly rallied toward its 50-day moving average (DMA) (the red line below), I jumped on a weekly SPY put option expiring the next week. In quick order, the put doubled. I dutifully took profits just as the trading rules dictate. Unlike <a href=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/2024\/12\/18\/from-euphoria-to-oversold-in-a-day-the-market-breadth\/\">the last time I snatched a quick double<\/a>, this SPY put option collapsed the next day (and thus made me feel relieved I followed the rule). I bought a fresh put option as SPY rallied back to 50DMA resistance on Friday. This position is one hedge on bullishness given what I see as an incrementally more precarious stock market. (I know &#8211; we have all heard this song so many times over the past year).<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/010325-SP-500-SPY.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1612\" height=\"797\" src=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/010325-SP-500-SPY.png\" alt=\"The S&amp;P 500 (SPY) confirmed a 50DMA breakdown but held the December lows as support before Friday's 1.3% rebound nearly broke resistance.\" class=\"wp-image-72009\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2;width:840px;height:auto\" title=\"S&amp;P 500 (SPY)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/010325-SP-500-SPY.png 1612w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/010325-SP-500-SPY-768x380.png 768w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/010325-SP-500-SPY-1536x759.png 1536w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/010325-SP-500-SPY-1320x653.png 1320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1612px) 100vw, 1612px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong><em>The S&amp;P 500 (SPY) confirmed a 50DMA breakdown but held the December lows as support before Friday&#8217;s 1.3% rebound nearly broke resistance.<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-5e6b19ed wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/subscribe-free\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><mark style=\"background-color:#0693e3\" class=\"has-inline-color has-white-color\">Join the One-Twenty Two Mailing List for Free<\/mark><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The NASDAQ (COMPQX) benefited from firming market breadth in the form of confirming 50DMA support.

There was a bear\/bull battle going on at the single-digit price level. I completely lost track of SOFI in 2024, a year when the stock gained 54.8%. It was easy to lose track of SOFI as it traded in the red until a breakout and run-up into October earnings. SOFI has my attention again as it struggles to recover from a poor start to the year. The stock lost 8.3% on a major downgrade. Buyers defended SOFI at 50DMA support and returned the next day with a 5.0% gain. However, SOFI is still flirting with bearish territory with a potential (likely?) head and shoulders top. A close above the neckline begins a likely invalidation of the top; I am a buyer at that point. A close below the 50DMA makes me a seller (short).<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20250103_SOFI-SoFi-Technologies-Inc.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1510\" height=\"799\" src=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20250103_SOFI-SoFi-Technologies-Inc.png\" alt=\"SoFi Technologies Inc (SOFI) may have topped out thanks to a major downgrade.

It is a classic case of an obvious uptrend that is hard for someone like me to buy. Every time I looked at this chart I conjured up visions of an overdue correction or even collapse. CVNA held a strong uptrend at 50DMA support all year long. Such a stubborn trend dulls the bearish senses. Accordingly, I hesitated at a confirmed 50DMA breakdown on December 27. To start the year, I next missed the break below the post-earnings trading band.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The release of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2025\/01\/02\/hindenburg-shorts-carvana-stock.html\">a short report<\/a> suddenly provided a potential explanation for CVNA&#8217;s recent weakness and sustained breakdown. After gapping down post release, CVNA surprisingly rallied back to the previous day&#8217;s close. I missed one more trading opportunity to fade CVNA. The stock closed the day with an 11.2% loss. I tried a strangle position, but wide bid\/ask spreads did not allow me in at an attractive price. CVNA tops my trading list next week.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20250103_CVNA-Carvana-Co.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1510\" height=\"799\" src=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20250103_CVNA-Carvana-Co.png\" alt=\"Carvana Co (CVNA) topped out with its last post-earnings band.
