S+P 500 sets a record close above 6k but it could have been better

Yesterday the S+P 500 set a new record opening at 6,008.86 and subsequently rose to set a new all time record intraday high, at 6,017.31, but it could not hold the move and slipped back to a low at 5,986.69. However, it managed to rebound from there and later closed above that 6k level for the first time ever, at 6,001.35, but given the opening level and the earlier high, it could have been better. Overnight the S+P futures have not made any real progress and the price action seems to have stalled and this is because it has been a sea of red across the Asian markets today. That has dented the US futures, despite the fact there is a good deal of detachment between them and the rest of the markets. So, the S+P 500 futures are right now pricing a slightly lower opening, currently at around 5,997
