US stock indices were mixed in the early part of Monday’s session as investors continued to assess the outlook for global trade.
The Nasdaq 100 was moving within a very tight pre-market range as traders worked out the next direction. The index was described as “extraordinarily overbought,” with expectations that a pullback could occur at some point.

The S&P 500 was also described as relatively quiet. The view presented was that short-term pullbacks could offer buying opportunities, particularly near the 7,300 level.
The 7,500 level was identified as a target, with the expectation that it could be reached over time. Occasional pullbacks were framed as potentially providing value for investors looking to add at better prices.
