S&P 500 Flirts With Elusive 1,121

The S&P 500 Index came close, oh so close, to holding the psychologically important 1,121 level today, touching it briefly this morning, backing off, returning shortly before 3 pm, Eastern, before losing steam again.� Why is 1,121 important? Because technicians say so!� 1,121 is a retracement of the 50% dip from the high of October, 2007, to the March, 2008 high. Some observers argue if the S&P goes above 1,121 and then falls below 1,114, look out below.

Then again, some people say never mind: almost no one’s around over these sleepy holiday weeks.
