As the manufacturers feel positive about the newest infrastructure bill, major market indices all rose, with S&P 500 spiking through the major level of 4,000.
With S&P forming a positive trend and rising above the major resistance level of 4,000, we can expect its rise to continue in the short-term, possibly reaching 4,030 today.
