Major U.S. stock indices have pushed to fresh session lows as the clock ticks toward the 4:00 PM ET close. The Nasdaq Index has fallen to a new intraday low of 26,404.16, bringing it closer to a key technical support zone.
The latest dip has taken the index to within striking distance of its 100-hour moving average at 26,380.94. Just below that sits the 200-hour moving average at 26,298.71, creating an important support area for buyers. If the bullish bias is to remain intact, traders will want to see the Nasdaq hold above this moving-average cluster. A break below would weaken the near-term technical picture and could give sellers more control heading into the close and into tomorrow’s trade.
