TODAY'S SPECIAL NOTICE

The market (M criteria) is still in a correction. Disciplined investors know to protect cash by avoiding any new buys until a new uptrend is confirmed with a proper follow-through day.


Major Averages Slump Again as Rally Attempt Flops

The Dow shed 93 points, while the Nasdaq Composite lost 1% after touching its lowest level since September 2020 earlier in the session. The S&P 500 slid 0.8% amid weakness in Energy and Information Technology shares. The volume totals reported were lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, indicative of less selling pressure from the institutional crowd. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by more than a 2-1 margin on the NYSE and 7-4 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 5 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 4 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals expanded again and solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs totals on both the NYSE and the Nasdaq exchange. The market is still in a correction (M criteria). Caution and patience remain paramount. Disciplined investors know to watch for a follow-through day of big gains to confirm a new uptrend.

PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index pulled back for a 4th consecutive loss, undercutting the rally attempt's Day 1 low, but staying above the 9/30/22 low. A solid follow-through day of gains is needed as confirmation of a new market uptrend. Only the Dow Jones Industrial Average has avoided undercutting its Day 1 low.

U.S. equities finished lower, though pared back losses, as a perceived risk-off mood took hold. Investors digested Friday’s jobs report and commentary from Federal Reserve (Fed) officials. Speaking at a conference this morning, Chicago Fed President Charles Evans said he believes the benchmark federal-funds rate will need to rise and remain at a high level for some time. He also said the high rate, coupled with the central bank’s quantitative tightening program, may restrict growth and soften the jobs market. Meanwhile, Fed Vice Chair Lael Brainard restated the need for the Fed to make policy decisions based on data.

Semiconductor stocks were the main laggards today following news the U.S. is planning to limit their exports to China. The domestic bond market was closed today due to the Columbus Day holiday. Elsewhere, the U.S. Dollar Index added 0.3% amid Fed jitters and reports Russia carried out air strikes in Kyiv. In commodities, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude slid 1.8% to $90.86/barrel despite last week’s news that the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and their allies (OPEC+) will cut production by two million barrels per day. Oil prices have whipsawed in recent weeks as market participants weighed tight global supply conditions against growing recessionary worries.

G - Still lingering below its 50 DMA line ($38.19) and the recent slump below the pivot point raised concerns. A rebound above the 50 DMA line is needed for its outlook to improve. Faces some near-term resistance due to overhead supply up to the $41 level. 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.

Prior highs in the $30.50 area define initial support to watch above its 50 DMA line ($26.61). 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.
