The Nasdaq Composite logged a 0.2% decline, the S&P 500 fell 0.4%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 0.6%. Small cap stocks were relative laggards, leading the Russell 2000 to log a 1.2% loss. Volume was reported higher than the prior session total on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Decliners led advancers by more than a 3-1 margin on the NYSE and nearly 3-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 43 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 61 on the prior session. New 52-week lows outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria). New buying efforts should be only made in stocks fitting all key criteria of the fact-based investment system.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell on Tuesday with higher volume. It is consolidating well above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line near its all-time high.

New economic data was limited to the NY Empire State Manufacturing Index, which doesn't normally move the market that much, but plunged to -43.7 in January from -14.5 in December. The 2-yr note yield settled seven basis points higher at 4.22% and the 10-yr note yield jumped 12 basis points to 4.07%.

The only sector to close with a gain was information technology (+0.4%), boosted by gains in Microsoft (MSFT +0.46%) and NVIDIA (NVDA +3.06%). The sector was also boosted by M&A news that ANSYS (ANSS -5.50%) will be acquired by Synopsys (SNPS +3.09%) in a transaction that values ANSYS at $35 billion. 

Goldman Sachs (GS +0.71%), Morgan Stanley (MS -4.16%), and PNC (PNC +0.07%) reported quarterly results with mixed responses. The S&P 500 financial sector was among the worst performers, dropping -0.6%. Other laggards included follow economically-sensitive sectors like energy (-2.4%), materials (-1.2%), and industrials (-1.0%).
