SPX and QQQ triangle breakouts argue for a test of all-time highs in QQQ though Technology resistance is growing near

US equities pushed higher Thursday as both $SPX and $QQQ broke out of their triangle patterns, with Treasuries rallying on a weaker-than-expected PPI report while crude oil pulled back.
