9000 seems to be a psychological barrier.

Based upon historical data, the S&P 500 should be at 820 (based upon avg. growth 1950-1980).

it still has a ways to drop. Once it hits 820ish, I’m in.

All nice, round 1,000-point thresholds are psych barriers and floors. Nice round 100-point increments on the SP-500 less so, but they’re there.

Stocks gravitate towards $100 price levels and they rocket downwards when they “break par” on the way down.
