The Dow added 186 points, while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 1%. The S&P 500 advanced 0.7%. Volume totals were lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Advancers led decliners by a 3-2 margin on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 16 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page versus the total of 25 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals also contracted yet still outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The market is in a correction (M criteria). Disciplined investors know to avoid new buying, reduce exposure and raise cash until a new confirmed rally with a solid follow-through day is noted.

PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index is consolidating near its 50-day moving average line and remains below its 200 DMA line.

10 of 11 sectors finished in positive territory as U.S. equities rose on Tuesday while investors looked towards this week’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) report and anticipated the beginning of fourth-quarter earnings season. Market participants are also digesting the latest commentary from Federal Reserve (Fed) officials. This morning, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell highlighted the need for the central bank to remain apolitical amid its efforts to curb inflation. He did not provide any clues as to the monetary policy outlook in his statement but indicated some of the measures they need to put in place may not be popular. Fed Governor Michelle Bowman said she sees more interest rate hikes in the near future and reiterated her commitment to bringing inflation down.

On the data front, the NFIB Small Business Optimism Index declined in December to its second-weakest print since 2013. Elsewhere, a final update on November wholesale inventories remained unchanged, notching a 1% monthly gain. Treasuries weakened, with the yield on the benchmark 10-year note up eight basis points (0.08%) to 3.61%, while the 30-year bond yield climbed nine basis points (0.09%) to 3.74%. The yield on the more Fed-sensitive two-year note advanced four basis points (0.04%) to 4.24%. In commodities, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude gained 0.5% to $75.03/barrel as investors await Thursday’s inflation data.

Found Support at 200-Day Moving Average and Still Faces Resistance
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

Graphic Packaging Hldg (GPK -$0.16 or -0.71% to $22.24) is consolidating near its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($22.35) after recently finding support at its 200 DMA line ($21.67). More damaging losses may raise concerns. It faces some resistance due to overhead supply up to the $24 level. Fundamentals remain strong.

GPK was highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 9/12/22 high plus 10 cents in the 10/25/22 mid-day report (read here). GPK has a 98 Earnings Per Share Rating. It reported Sep '22 quarterly earnings +79% on +38% sales revenues versus the year ago period. It was last shown in this FSU section on 12/15/22 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Violated 50-Day Moving Average After Recently Failing to Break Out". The past 3 quarterly comparisons were well above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Its annual earnings history has been good, meeting the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines (A criteria).

The Paper & Paper Products group is ranked 117th on the 197 Industry Groups list and it has a C (41) Group Relative Strength Rating (L criteria). The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 596 in Sep '21 to 697 in Dec '22, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.0 is an unbiased indication its shares have been neutral concerning accumulation/distributional pressure over the past 50 days.
