Either the Russian missile missed its Ukrainian target or the Ukrainian military shot down the missile and landed in Poland. Moscow launched a major offensive against the Ukrainian city on Tuesday.
Russia denies any responsibility. Poland said the strike appeared to be an “isolated incident”.

Market rally analysis
The stock market rally started strong on Tuesday, booming with the PPI inflation report. However, major indexes retreated from their intraday highs and mixed in response to reports of a missile attack in Poland.
Perhaps the inflation/Fed narrative has changed. But that doesn’t mean the major indices can’t reach resistance, especially after their recent strong performances. There is always the possibility of tipping over.
Both the Dow Jones and Russell 2000 are above their 200-day moving averages. The S&P 500 is approaching his 200-day line and recorded a strong resistance on August 16th.
Nasdaq is heading from the 50-day line to the 200-day line, but it has a long way to go.
In particular, the Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP) is just above the 200-day line. Direxion Nasdaq-100 Equal Weighted Index ETF (QQQE) is approaching its significant long-term level.
Of course, just because a major index can claim to have a “deadline” for a pause, pullback, or rebound, the market does what it’s supposed to do.
The tech giant is recovering with the market, but definitely not taking the lead. A number of giants hit bear market lows last week. One of the semi-exceptions is his Nvidia stock, which has skyrocketed in his month. But even the chip giant is still working towards the 200-day line.
However, many sectors are showing strength.
Solar, networking, contract electronics manufacturers and some medical product companies are doing well. So are a select number of chips, and a few others trying to set it up. Many housing stocks look interesting, from builders to suppliers to home retailers.
Other retailers look good, including WMT inventory. BJ wholesale (BJs) When ultra beauty (Ultra). BJ’s Thursday report.
Truckers are moving upwards as investors believe the worst has passed, or at least the price has been set for stock shipments.
Biotech companies and health insurers have either suspended or exited, but overall things are going pretty well. Energy stocks are also doing well, but many stocks look better.

what to do now
Major indices look strong, with more stocks setting up with flashing buy signals. Inflation data may have reached a tipping point, increasing the likelihood that the pace of Fed rate hikes will slow, perhaps ending tightening in the not too distant future.
Therefore, investors should take advantage of the current market rally. But given the potential for market setbacks and resistance, they want to be cautious about how much they add in the short term.
Do not track extended inventory. Be wary of buying stocks that are significantly above the 50-day moving average, even if they are in the official buy zone. Don’t concentrate too much.portfolio focused on lithium strains Albemarle and others would have burned down on Tuesday.
