The S&P 500 (SPX) is up roughly 12% from the Christmas time low, and has matched the reflex rally that took place following the 2011 market crash that took the SPX down 20%.

The question is whether the market just marches higher, or goes through a retest, which has been the case in the three prior 20% drops in under 4 months outside of a recession (1987, 1998, 2011). Our playbook was for the reflex rally, and then a retest, followed by new highs as we move toward the summer.
