Weekly Insights - Sep1 ,2025 to Sep 5, 2025

Weekly Insights – Week of September 1, 2025

This is a shortened week with Labor Day (Mon) in the U.S. Indices sit at or near all-time highs, but we’re seeing pockets of profit-taking. A recent tariff-related court decision adds uncertainty, and the seasonally weak window from September to mid-October is upon us. Quadruple witching later this month could amplify volatility.

Market Highlights

All-time highs: US500, US100 and Dow remain elevated.
Profit taking: Some pullbacks after extended runs.
Tariff uncertainty: Judge’s ruling last Friday keeps trade policy in focus.
Seasonality: Sep → mid-Oct historically softer for equities.
Quadruple witching: September expiries may boost volumes & swings.

Charts with Pivots

US500 daily chart with pivot zones — **US500 (S&P 500) – Daily:** Consolidating just below ~6,500 after ATHs. Support ~6445/6415/6343/6100 (deeper: ~5,800 / ~5,200). Resistance ~6,700. Holding above ~6,460 keeps momentum intact; a break under ~6,100 risks a sharper pullback.

US100 daily chart with pivot zones — **US100 (Nasdaq 100) – Daily:** Holding above ~23,000 after new highs. Support ~23306/23009/22666 (deeper: ~20,000 / ~16,200). Resistance ~24,000. Tech leadership intact; seasonality is the near-term risk.
