On January 10, the S&P 500 Index (SPX) experienced a slight decrease, trading at 4756.51, a 0.15% drop. The index currently hovers around its pivot point at 4756.51. Facing immediate resistance at 4765.69, the SPX has subsequent hurdles at 4794.61 and 4819.15, crucial for its potential upward trajectory.

Support levels are noted at 4707.69, 4670.35, and 4641.41, which could mitigate further declines. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 57, indicating a mildly bullish market sentiment. The SPX is also trading above its 50-Day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of 4687.92, suggesting a short-term bullish trend.
