Stocks should be considered to rally around this key level, Dawson says

According to NewEdge Wealth’s Cameron Dawson, stocks rose on Monday, but not by enough to be considered a true market rally.

“We need to hit that critical level of 4,100,” Dawson told CNBC’s “CLOSING BELL: Overtime“Monday. The S&P 500 hit its 65-day high of 4,100.

The S&P 500 hasn’t reached a major moving point in 2022 because it’s been in decline, Dawson said. If the stock breaks this level, it may indicate that the rally has the potential to move into a new bull market cycle.

Technicals and positioning can only take the stock so far, he added, before a fundamental shift is needed to give the stock forward momentum.

“We need to see a change in fundamentals to really think this rally will continue,” he said.

He warned that stocks will remain upside down until the Federal Reserve fully stimulates and re-stimulates the US economy.

“We cannot go back to pre-pandemic multiples without the central bank’s help,” he said.

If stocks can rally and break a 65-day high, Dawson said, that would reduce the likelihood that the S&P 500 will retest its October lows.
