Major Indices Sink as Sentiment Shifts

The Dow lost 282 points, snapping a five-session stretch of notching record highs, which had been the benchmark’s longest such run since November 2017. The S&P 500 declined 0.7% after having doubled from its March 2020 pandemic bottom on Monday. The Nasdaq Composite fell 0.9%, its worst day in three weeks. The volume totals reported were higher than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, indicative of distributional pressure or institutional selling. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by more than a 2-1 margin on the NYSE and 5-2 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 27 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page versus 43 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals swelled and outnumbered new 52-week highs  on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices (M criteria) are in an uptrend that has come under pressure. Investors are reminded to always make buying and selling decisions on case-by-case basis under the strict criteria and rules of the fact-based investment system.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average is pulling back from its record high.

U.S. stocks closed firmly lower on Tuesday as lingering COVID-19 concerns along with mixed economic data and corporate earnings results weighed on risk sentiment. On the data front, retail sales fell a worse-than-anticipated 1.1% in July after the prior month’s increase was upwardly revised to reflect a 0.7% gain. Another release revealed manufacturing production surpassed pre-pandemic levels in July, while total industrial production rose a stronger-than-forecasted 0.9%. Separately, the NAHB’s measure of homebuilder sentiment unexpectedly slipped to a 13-month low in August. Treasuries were little changed, with the yield on the 10-year note holding steady at 1.26%. In commodities, COMEX gold slipped 0.2% to $1783.00/ounce as a gauge of the U.S. dollar spiked 0.5%. WTI crude lost 0.8% to $66.77/barrel, notching a four-day losing streak.

Seven of 11 S&P 500 sectors finished in negative territory, with the traditionally defensive groups bucking the downtrend. Consumer Discretionary stocks lagged, with Home Depot (HD -4.27%) sliding after missing same-store sales expectations. The Health Care group offered a bright spot, with COVID-19 vaccine makers rallying as the Biden administration readied to endorse a coronavirus booster shot for fully vaccinated Americans. In other earnings, Walmart (WMT -0.03%) ended little change despite topping analyst profit and revenue estimates. Elsewhere, China’s Alibaba (BABA -4.91%) slumped as Beijing signaled further regulatory clampdown on internet-related companies.

Biotech Index Posts Standout Gain on Widely Negative Session

The Retail Index's ($RLX -2.45%) weakness and financials weighed on the major averages as the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD -1.10%) and Bank Index ($BKX -1.45%) both slumped. The Biotech Index ($BTK +1.92%) posted a gain, meanwhile the Semiconductor Index ($SOX -1.96%) and Networking Index ($NWX -1.15%) both lost ground. Commodity-linked groups also had a negative bias as the  Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -1.47%), Oil Services Index ($OSX -2.24%), and Integrated Oil Index ($XOI -1.20%) lost ground.

Chart courtesy of www.stockcharts.com

PICTURED: The Bank Index ($BKX -1.45%) is still above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line.

Recent 50-Day Moving Average Violation Again Raised Concerns

Camtek Ltd (CAMT -$0.34 or -0.95% to $35.46) suffered a 3rd consecutive loss in a streak that has raised concerns as it violated its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($36.52). Only a prompt rebound above the 50 DMA line would help its outlook improve. The prior low ($32 30) defines the next important near-term support to watch.  More damaging losses would trigger a worrisome technical sell signal.

Recently it reported Jun '21 quarterly earnings +138% on +82% sales revenues versus the year-ago period, continuing its strong earnings track record.  That marked its 4th strong quarterly comparison well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) and showing impressive sequential acceleration. This Israeli Electronics firm has a strong annual earnings (A criteria) history. It has a 98 Earnings Per Share Rating. A new pivot point was cited based on its 6/09/21 high plus 10 cents. Subsequent gains and a close above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may trigger a new (or add-on) technical buy signal. CAMT was highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 4/13/21 high plus 10 cents in the 4/28/21 mid-day report (read here). It was last shown in this FSU section on 7/08/21 with an annotated graph included under the headline, "Loss With Light Volume Undercut 50-Day Moving Average". 

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 48 in Jun '20 to 98 on Jun '21 a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 0.7 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under distributional pressure over the past 50 days. It completed a new Public Offering on 11/19/20. Still, its small supply of only 43.3 million shares outstanding (S criteria) can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. It has a Timeliness Rating of B and a Sponsorship Rating of C.
