Leadership Improved as Major Indices Rose

The major indices rose on Monday.  The volume totals reported were mixed, lighter on the NYSE and higher on the Nasdaq exchange versus the prior session. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by more than a 2-1 margin on the NYSE and by nearly 2-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. Leadership improved as there were 39 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit a new 52-week high and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, nearly doubling the total of 20 on the prior session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria). Appropriate new buying efforts may be considered under the fact-based investment system.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average posted a gain, finding support above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line.

Gains for the three major indices were restrained by the relative weakness in mega cap stocks. Apple (AAPL -1.09%), Alphabet (GOOGL -2.54%), and Microsoft (MSFT -1.60%) slumped following news from Nasdaq that there will be a Special Rebalance of the Nasdaq 100. To reduce overconcentration in the index, new weightings will be determined on Friday, July 14 and will be made effective prior to the open on July 24.

Small caps, banks, energy and semiconductor stocks all outperformed. The PHLX Semiconductor Index rose 2.1%, the Russell 2000 rose 1.6%, and the SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF (KRE) rose 0.8%.  The economically-sensitive S&P 500 industrials (+1.4%) and energy (+0.8%) sectors were among the top performers along with health care (+0.8%) and financials (+0.4%). Communication services (-0.9%) and utilities (-0.4%) sectors fell. 

A pullback in Treasury yields was supportive of equities. The 2-yr note yield fell nine basis points to 4.85% and the 10-yr note yield fell four basis points to 4.01%. The improvement in Treasury yields happened ahead of Wednesday's release of the June Consumer Price Index.
