Chart Alert: The Laggard Dow Jones (DJIA) is in the Process of a Bullish Catch-up Above 47,895 Key Support
The Dow (US Wall Street 30) has lagged other US indices since late February but is showing a technical bullish catch‑up above key short‑term support at 47,895. A sustained break above 48,850 would likely extend the rally toward 49,180/49,250 and the 49,715–49,835 terminal zone, while failure risks a pullback to 47,460 and 46,970/46,710. The index’s heavy financial weighting (≈27%) and the 11.4% price weight of Goldman Sachs mean that a re‑steepening of the 2s/10s yield curve would materially support earnings and the Dow’s upside. The yield spread has plateaued after an 11bp drop to 0.48% in mid‑March and has edged back to ~0.53%, easing some near‑term tightening concerns. Overall, technicals point to a near‑term bullish bias, contingent on clearing 48,850 and continued improvement in bank profitability drivers.
