SPY sold off four sessions on $100-plus oil and a rates backup, then bounced Friday after CPI even as Sept. 16 hike odds sat near 80–90%. The 10-year tagged ~4.98% and crude stayed elevated into next week's FOMC, turning that bounce into the week's central bull-bear fight over whether a real correction has started.
BullThe Friday rebound repaired structure and keeps the path toward new highs open. Sellers undercut the 50-day EMA and failed to hold below it, with measured targets still cited toward the high-780s after the CPI pop.
BearHot yields and the oil shock are the start of a real, non-V correction. Midterm-year drawdown history and bearish weekly signals are being cited for an 18% SPY drop over the next four months while the 10-year and crude keep pressure on.
