The reported level represents a market reading rather than an independently verified official closing price.

Nasdaq Rises 214.38 Points

Nasdaq Recovers Friday’s Losses

Resistance at 26,254 and 26,599

At the reported level of 26,169.72, the Nasdaq remained below its 100-day and 50-day moving averages.

A move above 26,254 would put the 50-day moving average near 26,599 in focus. A decline below 25,803 could increase pressure toward 25,500.

Nasdaq Remains Below Key Moving Averages

Despite the 0.83% advance, the Nasdaq remained approximately 0.3% below its 100-day moving average and 1.6% below its 50-day moving average.

The rebound recovered the previous session's losses, but a sustained move above these technical levels would provide stronger evidence of improving momentum.

The next trading sessions will determine whether the index extends its recovery or retreats toward support.
