For all esteemed members of the Investment Club, daily brief for the 27th of October, 2025.
Based on the pre-market analysis for Sunday, October 26th, markets rose as investor tensions cooled down. Futures markets for Nasdaq (NQ=F) and S&P 500 (ES=F) rose as crucial economic and corporate data came ahead. Investors are anticipating positive earnings for big tech, energy, and financial sectors:
Microsoft
Meta
Apple
Amazon
Visa
Netflix
Coca-Cola
Intel
Northrop Grumman (Aerospace)
Lockheed Martin
T-Mobile
AT&T
Mastercard
Exxon Mobil
Chevron
New York Stock Exchange, Friday (traders eagerly buying on a bullish day)
On Friday, the major 3 indexes (Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq) closed near record highs, with shareholders expecting momentum to carry into next week.
With the recent volatility, President Trump and Xi Jinping of China are scheduled to discuss the escalating trade war at the Asia-Pacific Economic Summit, particularly in the Semiconductor industry.
My predictions for the market tomorrow
Stocks will continue to rise, though volatility might slightly rise depending on the outcome of Major earnings. Crypto as well will continue to rise, because of the first stablecoin pegged to the Yen.
Earnings to especially look out for
Apple (AAPL): Reaching all-time highs, in addition to earnings this week. Monitor it closely
Support zones
~$213-217: A zone where the 200-day EMA and weekly structure converge.
~$198: A recent consolidation floor after a rebound.
~$164-171: A deeper support band from a prior major low.
Key resistance levels:
~240-245: A congestion/ resistance zone where prior upside stalled
~260: The all-time high region and a major psychological barrier
All indicators (RSI, MACD) are bullish at the moment. If the key supports break, volatility spikes.
Amazon (AMZN):
Key support zones:
Around $190: The stock recently approached a multi-year support line near ~$190.
~$183: A longer-term trendline support going back to early 2023 was highlighted as a potential downside risk if ~$200 breaks.
~$222: Another more recent support/pivot zone seen in some shorter-term charts.
Key resistance levels:
The ~$224-230 region: Seen as a near-term resistance cluster.
~$230+ above: Since resistance at ~$230 appears in some pattern setups (cup & handle, etc)
My summary:
If Amazon holds above the ~$190 support area, the base remains intact, and the ~$224-230 resistance zone becomes more relevant.
A break below ~$190, especially a sustained close below, could open up further downside toward ~$183 or so.
A clean move above ~$230 with momentum could signal a more meaningful upside leg.
Keep an eye on volume and confirmation of breaks (support or resistance) because technicals show itβs in a tight structure now.
Overall, I want everyone to look out for upcoming news, monitor crypto and earnings stocks. Also focusing on the private equities market due to ATLAS, the ChatGPT browser was in its early days. All of the factors will cause an expected bullish day for the market.
