What the data says

Keep price, trend and relative value separate.

S&P 500 has a strong uptrend structure based on available daily and weekly observations. The relative reading compares SPX with M2; it does not estimate intrinsic fair value or predict a reversal.

  • Price describes the market in its native unit.
  • Normalized performance puts two series on the same starting line.
  • The ratio shows which series is outperforming.
  • The percentile describes where that ratio sits in its own lookback window.

Frequently asked

Questions about this analysis

Where do the S&P 500, Nasdaq 100 and Dow Jones histories come from?

Nasdaq 100 and Dow use official FRED histories. S&P 500 combines validated pre-FRED open history with official FRED closes from the start of that series. Automatic FRED refreshes continue for SP500, NASDAQ100 and DJIA, and every SQL row retains its source label.

How are current index values handled?

SPX, NDX and DJI use their latest official FRED daily closes with the observation date shown. AssetScreener does not describe a delayed close or a futures proxy as a real-time cash index.
