The S&P 500 wrapped up last week with a solid technical picture—roughly 70% of its constituent stocks are trading above their 200-day moving averages. That's the kind of broad-based strength that traders typically like to see. When you've got that much of the index participating above this key technical level, it suggests the rally has some real meat on its bones rather than being driven by just a handful of mega-cap names. Worth keeping an eye on whether this momentum holds or if we start seeing a pullback in participation as we move forward.

70% of stocks are above the 200-day moving average, this is what true broad-based rally looks like, unlike before when seven major firms were holding up the market.

70% of individual stocks are above the 200-day moving average, now that's a real rally, not so superficial.

70% of individual stocks are above the 200-day moving average? Sounds good, but don't be fooled; I've seen this data several times before.

Are 70% above the 200-day moving average? This wave of increase is quite broad, unlike the previous situation where seven or eight major stocks were holding up the market.
