Major Averages Fell While There Was Less Leadership

Stocks finished lower on Tuesday. The Dow was off 109 points to 16964. The S&P 500 was down 22 points to 1979. The NASDAQ declined 59 points to 4648. Volume was reported lighter on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, a reassuring sign that institutions were not heavy sellers. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by more than  3-1 on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Leadership also waned as there were 9 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List made new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, down from the total of 21 on the prior session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE, but new lows outnumbered new highs on the Nasdaq exchange.

PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index is consolidating after rebounding further above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line, but it remains trading well below its 200 DMA line.

The S&P 500 snapped a five-session winning streak while Treasuries gained amid renewed uncertainty out of China. A report showed the nation’s exports fell to the lowest level since 2009. On the domestic data front, small business optimism for February came in below consensus estimates.

Seven out of ten sectors in the S&P 500 finished in negative territory. After a sharp rally on Monday, Energy stocks led the losses with Marathon Oil (MRO -8.25) and Schlumberger (SLB -4.54%) both falling. Materials shares also faltered with Alcoa (AA -7.07%) slumping badly.

In earnings, Shake Shack (SHAK -11.84%) after putting forth lower-than-expected same store sales forecasts. Urban Outfitters (URBN +16.09%) jumped after beating Wall Street profit predictions. JetBlue Airways (JBLU -9.09%) fell after lowering forward guidance citing a tougher industry capacity landscape.

Treasuries rebounded with the benchmark U.S. ten-year note adding 22/32 to yield 1.83%. In commodities, NYMEX WTI crude retreated 4.3% to $36.29/barrel after surging 5.5% on Monday. COMEX gold slipped 0.1% to $1262.50/ounce. In FOREX, the Dollar Index was little changed with weakness against the yen offsetting strength against the emerging markets.

The major averages (M criteria) have seen healthy leadership provide encouraging signs during the current confirmed rally. The DOW, S&P 500 Index, and the Nasdaq Composite rebounded further above their respective 50-day moving average lines last FridayThe Featured Stocks Page includes most current notes with headline links for access to more detailed letter-by-letter analysis including price/volume graphs annotated by our experts.
