8 May Dow Jones Technical Analysis

The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped initially during the week but as you can see the index didn’t move much. Also, the Dow Jones ended up forming a hammer pattern. Thus, pressing against the 21,000 level. But if the index can break above the level, it is a very bullish sign and the market will continue to move higher. There is a bit of resistance above and the investors are looking for 22,000 levels. I think that perhaps the market is a bit choppy now, but in long term, the market will deal with the volatility.
