since Evergrande warned about the risk of default on August 31st, the SPX slipped into the Kumo accompanied by the following series of events: 0) Aug.31 - Evergrande warns investors about the risk of default; 1) Sept.6 - Trading in Evergrande's bonds is suspended following "abnormal fluctuations"; 2) Sept.8 - The group plans to suspend interst payments due on loans to two banks on Sept.21; 3) Sept.15 - Chinese authoritues told major lenders that Evergrande won't pay interest payments due on Sept.21 on its loans; 4) Sept.16 - Evergrande's onshore unit halted trading in all bonds after a domestic rating cut; 5) Sept.20 - Evergrande missed payments to at least two banks that were due Monday; 6) Sept.22 - Evergrande agrees to pay Thursday's interest on local bonds but offshore creditors remain in limbo.
*With reference to point 6) I am more of the opinion that support was provided by the US House of Congress rather than Evergrande agreeing to pay onshore creditors. However these factors can be considered supportive both and the Index appreciated right on the 100SMA.
Today SPX is trying to exit the Kumo towards 50SMA or Kijun.
