US indexes continue with their records. The S&P 500 index last week saw its longest winning weekly series in four years, after eight consecutive weeks of growth.
A key market test, however, may become a reality when a group of stocks will present its results next week.
Namely, we need to look at the results of the trading sector in relation to the Black Friday. This may be the first sign of market-based cracking.
Stocks of retailers are already 9% down from the beginning of the year, driven by massive industrial pressures and weaker-than-expected results for companies in the sector.
Less-than-expected sales during the "Black Friday" may lead to purchase of put options on the part of investors to protect their portfolios from potential corrections that may happen very soon.
At the moment in the US markets, the situation looks like a party that will never end. But as we all know, every thing has its end.
