The market (M criteria) is in a correction. A caution flag has been raised by the technical damage in the major indices coupled with a shrinking list of stocks hitting new highs. Disciplined investors know to raise cash by selling weakening stocks on a case-by-case basis, and to protect that cash by avoiding any new buys until a new rally is confirmed with a follow-through day.

Breadth Positive as Major Averages Posted Solid Gains
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The Dow and S&P 500 snapped six-day losing streaks, adding 548 points and climbing 2%, respectively. The Nasdaq Composite advanced 2.1%. The volume totals reported were higher than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Advancers led decliners by a almost a 7-1 margin on the NYSE and 3-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 2 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, up from 1 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals contracted yet still solidly outnumbered a short list of new 52-week highs on both the NYSE and the Nasdaq exchange. The market is now in a correction (M criteria).

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average posted a solid gain that marked Day 1 of a new rally attempt. Caution and patience remain paramount. Disciplined investors know to watch for a follow-through day of big gains on Day 4-7 of a new rally to confirm a new uptrend.
U.S. equities finished higher Wednesday as Wall Street recovered from the sell-off that has gripped markets since the U.S. Federal Reserve’s (Fed) 75-basis point (0.75%) rate hike last week. Also bolstering sentiment was a rally in Treasuries and the announcement that the Bank of England (BOE) will begin purchasing longer-dated U.K. government bonds to help stabilize markets.
On the data front, a first look at wholesale inventories for August showed a larger-than-anticipated 1.3% gain. Additionally, the advance goods trade balance showed the deficit narrowed to reflect a $87.3 billion shortfall. Pending home sales notched a larger-than-expected monthly decline of 2% in August.
Treasuries continued to rally after the BOE’s announcement. The yield on the benchmark 10-year note shed 25 basis points (0.25%) to 3.73%, notching its largest basis point drop since 2020. The 30-year bond yield declined 18 basis points (0.18%) to 3.68%. The yield on the policy-sensitive two-year note fell 19 basis points (0.19%) to 4.12% despite hawkish commentary from Fed officials. In commodities, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude added 4.5% to $82.03/barrel, rallying the most since July, amid tight supply conditions. U.S. oil production in the Gulf of Mexico shut down as Hurricane Ian made landfall in Florida as a category four storm this afternoon. Elsewhere, a report from the Energy Information Agency (EIA) showed domestic crude stockpiles unexpectedly fell by 215,000 barrels in the recent week, while gasoline inventories declined by 2.4 million barrels. A gauge of the U.S. dollar declined 1.2%, further boosting oil prices. |

Y - Posted a 3rd consecutive gain with below average volume. Its 50 DMA line ($26) defines important near-term support where a violation would raise concerns and trigger a technical sell signal. Volume totals have been cooling while still consolidating within striking distance of prior highs in the $30 area. Recently reported insider buying is a reassuring sign. The market is in a correction (M criteria) and disciplined investors know to avoid new buying efforts until a new rally confirmed with a follow-through day.
