Senior Market Analyst, Matthew Timpane CMT, recently went live on Timing Research's Analyze Your Trade show. While answering real-time questions and pulling charts to analyze, he unpacked S&P 500 levels, short-term market volatility, seasonal trends, and how options-related open interest levels can act as support/resistance.

Below is the video, plus bullet points of the first five stocks he was given to analyze.

✅ Key Takeaways

📉 General Market Outlook

June options expiration (OPEX) tends to be volatile, with seasonal weakness before strong July performance.
Buyback blackouts and low summer liquidity contribute to choppy action.
Key S&P 500 support at 5,950 – a break below could open the door to deeper pullbacks (200-day MA at 5800, 50-day near 5700).
Geopolitical risks could add near-term volatility but are unlikely to trigger a full retest of lows barring major escalation.
