On Friday the S+P 500 did as expected and managed to push its way further into the record books, when it rose above 6,000 for the first time ever. The index set a high at 6,012.45. However, it was not able to post a daily and weekly close above 6k. The index fell back a little on what can only be profit-taking ahead of the weekend, nonetheless setting a record close, at 5,995.54. Now some months back Quick News outlined a scenario for the index to reach 6k, but more recently last week, the potential for this to extend even further has been in focus and the longer term technical target on that remains at around 6,600.
