Nasdaq Composite and S&P 500 Indexes Hit New Highs

The S&P 500 (+0.3%) and Nasdaq Composite (+0.9%) climbed further into record territory, meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell -0.3% and the Russell 2000 closed -0.4% lower. Volume totals reported were lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Market breadth was slightly negative as decliners led advancers by about a 3-2 margin on the NYSE and by a narrower margin on at the Nasdaq.  There were 21 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page versus the total of 27 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) that recently endured some pressure. Disciplined investors will watch for encouraging new highs totals to see the market showing some broad-based strength and resiience. Any uptrend requires healthy leadership.

Only two S&P 500 sectors closed with gains, information technology (+1.7%), and communication services (+0.5%).

There was strong interest in a fresh $39 billion 10-yr note sale. The 10-yr note yield fell seven basis points lower at 4.40% and the 2-yr note yield fell five basis points to 4.83%.
