The USMAI remains in a Bullish zone, supporting long-term investment strategies, but recent corrections signal weakening momentum. A transition to a Bearish zone is likely within the next few weeks, necessitating caution in both long-term and short-term positions.

Last week's strong buying momentum drove a robust upward movement earlier this week. However, the market closed with a sharp decline as strong employment data and resilient economic indicators reduced the likelihood of future rate cuts. Currently, the market is undergoing a corrective phase.

Starting next week, the weekly trend is expected to enter a bearish zone, transitioning into a downward trend. A rebound is anticipated around late January to early February. In the short term, a sell-side dominant downward movement is likely, and any upward moves are expected to be temporary.
