The Bottom Line

Technical parameters for North American equity markets were mixed last week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500 Index, NASDAQ Composite Index and TSX Composite Index managed to set all-time highs. On the other hand, the S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP) closed below its all-time high set on July 25th and has remained in a trading range between $180
and $188 since the beginning of July. Performances by the S&P 500 Index and NASDAQ Composite Index have been dominated by heavy weights in 10 big cap stocks (Think Magnificent 7 stocks).
